LG fans, we have great news: the company has opened a new & # 39; Global Software Upgrade Center & # 39; for your smartphone.
The change will mean two things, according to the brand: faster Android updates for your phone, and a more stable and usable experience as long as those updates have been implemented.
The great news is that, despite being located in South Korea, the division will have the task of ensuring that Android updates are delivered globally, which should At the end of the hearing, Poland, Japan or the USA UU they are receiving the update first while the rest of the world waits months.
