LG Electronics Co. Ltd. announced it will install Google Inc.’s software for cellphones on “millions” of LG phones through a new partnership between the two companies. The agreement is the latest such handset deal for Google, which has inked similar announcements with Motorola Inc., Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications L.P. and others.
“Building on our efforts to set new standards for wireless handsets, we are excited to partner with Google to offer extra value to consumers with enhanced mobile Internet experiences,” said Paul Bae, an LG VP. “LG’s mobile devices, combined with Google, will provide consumers with easy access to their favorite Internet services even without a PC and make it easy for them to stay connected while in motion.”
LG said it would install Google’s Maps, Gmail and Blogger Mobile applications on its phones.
