Karachi, Feb. 20, 2013 – LG Electronics (LG) announced today it sold an Optimus L Series device every second over the past two months, propelling sales of the popular smartphones to over 15 million units. Since its launch at Mobile World Congress (MWC) last year, Optimus L Series smartphones have become the device of choice for individuals around the world who favor a well-balanced smartphone with a unique design. Building on this momentum, LG will unveil a new generation of the stylish series at MWC 2013 with an upgraded design and improved features.

 

The Optimus L Series^II will carry on the legacy of its predecessor, offering a user experience unique to LG smartphones.

"The new Optimus L Series^II expands upon the design philosophy of the original series so we're quite confident that we'll have another hit on our hands."
