LG

LG, formerly Lucky-Goldstar, is a South Korean conglomerate.

Background
Its subsidiary LG Electronics manufactured mobile devices which used the Android operating system. In 2013, LG had the second-largest share of the mobile phone market in the United States. However, after posting a $4.4 billion loss in 2020, LG announced in April 2021 that it would exit the "incredibly competitive" mobile phone business by July 31, 2021. Continuing sales were limited to clearing inventory of existing models and the company's remaining resources were redirected towards "electric vehicle components, connected devices, smart homes, robotics, artificial intelligence and business-to-business solutions". In July 2021, LG announced a deal with Apple to sell its iPhones and other products at LG stores in Korea.

LG display technology
LG Display manufactures electronic components, such as LCD and OLED screens, for use in Apple products. With the discontinuation of the Apple Thunderbolt Display in 2016, Apple collaborated with LG to develop the LG UltraFine Displays for the Mac lineup. In March 2022, Apple stopped carrying the LG UltraFine 5K in its retail stores after the introduction of the Studio Display, though the 4K version remains available.
