LG may or may not be planning the launch of a new series of smartphones. Just last month, it announced a new series of affordable smartphones for the Indian market which includes the LG W10, LG W30, and the LG W30 Pro. Now, a trademark application has revealed the name of a new phone called the LG M10.
The application was filed at the Korean Intellectual Property Office and it says the trademark which is “M10” was filed under the Smartphones category. The application was filed on the 8th of July 2019.
While there are reports this may be a new line, we have a feeling this is the LG W10 taking on a new name in LG’s home country. This is not unusual for LG. One phone may go buy one name in one market and by another name in its home country. The LG X6 (in Korea), for example, is the same device as the LG Q60. It is also known as the LG K12 Prime in Brazil.
This is just speculation and the LG M10 may actually be the first of a brand-new series not similar to the W-series.
Apart from the M10, LG has also applied for trademarks for V60 and V70 which obviously are names of future LG V-series smartphones. The latest in the V-series is the LG V50 ThinQ which launched earlier this year. There is a chance we may get an LG V60 ThinQ later this year.
