On the press tour, the LG production factory "LG Digital Park" in Hirasawa City was released.LG's mobile phone terminal factories are located in four locations in China, India and Brazil, in addition to Hirasawa, but Hirasawa has a premium product, and Japanese products are made at the factory.
On the quality control floor, the durability and safety tests of prototypes are being tested.Press each key 25,000 times each time, a keep test and 1.Automation is conducted in automation, such as a falling test that falls from a height of 5m, a cable connection test that intentionally tilts the cable and inserts it.In addition to dustproof and waterproof tests, there are also tests that examine the effects of electromagnetic waves on the brain waves.
Regarding quality control, the standards of Japanese communication carriers are strictly strict, and at first testing was performed based on the standards of business partners, but now LG has formulated test items and conducted tests.It is said.
In the assembly line, the process from assembly to product tests is performed by flow work.A line is created by carrier model, and each person is given to the next person each time one person performs one work.In some work, there are some that confirm that the screws are tight and turn on the terminal.At the top of each line, the LCD panel shows the actual number of production targets today, the actual number of production, and the difference between the goals, so you can check the progress at a glance.
The RF test is also performed in the line, the input is manual, and the judgment is semi -automated as the computer.At the end of the line, you will uninstall the test software and re -install the product version of the software for about 500 seconds, and finally check the appearance to complete the product.
When visiting the line, it is necessary to wear a white coat to prevent static electricity, and the floor is kept clean, such as entering through the front room.The employees were mainly for young men and women, and were impressive to work silently.Since the line is working on a standing state, there are many foot massage equipment in the rest booth, and consideration is given to ease of work.

The "U+ SQUARE" of LG U+ in Seoul has exhibited "OPTIMUS LTE" to be released on the 4th and 10th, and pre -orders were accepted.The shop clerk appeals the features of "Optimus LTE" as "you can enjoy high -quality video calls and full -fledged network games with LTE. You can transfer photos and videos to PCs and TVs when you like."The use area of LG U+LTE services is currently limited to urban areas such as Seoul, but will expand throughout Korea by the spring of next year.
LG U+is a mobile carrier of the LG Group, but it handles not only LG but also a smartphone and feature phone made by other companies such as Samsung, with many LG and Samsung smartphones.Currently, more than 90 % of the terminals to be sold are smartphones.
Users in their 20s and 30s are mainly reserved for "Optimus LTE".One of the male clerk personally wanted to buy Optimus LTE, and said, "The terminal is attractive. I like the game so I want to enjoy it."
LG U+holds a variety of events in line with the launch of LTE services on smartphones with the release of "Optimus LTE", and from the 4th, a special booth where you can experience LTE in Myeongdong in Seoul.Opened (until October 30).Special booths consist of speed zones, multimedia zones, and dynamic zones.
In the speed zone, you can experience the difference between 3G and LTE, and in the multi -media zone, you can play PC games with a smartphone connected in PC and LTE mode, and you can watch videos using a cloud service with LTE.The dynamic zone is a zone that can take pictures of the movie "Matrix" by shooting from 360 degrees around.

On the last day of the last day, I got the opportunity to use "Optimus LTE" before it was released from LG U+, so how much communication speed can be used at various places in Seoul to use "Optimus LTE".I tried and so on.First, we took the subway to the center of Seoul, but the Korean subway could be confirmed on the screen radio waves that the radio waves of the mobile phone were also included in the tunnel, and the connection between 3G or LTE was performed.。I saw a lot of people who were actually driving on the train and operating mobile phones and smartphones.
A speed test was conducted at three points in the city to examine the LTE communication speed."SpeedTest" of Android app.When the communication speed was measured three times at each point using Net Mobile ", the following results were as follows.
Down: average 5.2Mbps (maximum 5).9Mbps/at least 4.5Mbps) Up: average 11.1Mbps (maximum 12).5Mbps/minimum 9.9Mbps)
Down: average 21.6Mbps (maximum 26).1Mbps/minimum 14.2Mbps) Up: average 23.0Mbps (maximum 23).3Mbps/minimum 22.7Mbps)
Down: average 6.4Mbps (maximum 7).0Mbps/minimum 5.6Mbps) Up: average 13.2Mbps (maximum 14).6Mbps/minimum 10.8Mbps)
Although there is a variation depending on the point, each point indicates that the average speed is 5Mbps or more, which can be said to be sufficient for normal use of the Internet.In addition, the rising speed of both places has reached a high speed of 10Mbps or more, which may be due to the fact that the LTE service has just begun, so the congestion may be less.In particular, in Myeongdong, it was 20Mbps on average, both down and going up, and was overwhelmingly faster than the other two points.20Mbps can be said to be able to download and upload large -capacity videos as well as install apps.
In addition, we photographed the city to check the capabilities of the camera equipped with a CMOS sensor with a back -illuminated CMOS sensor of about 8 million pixels.Because it was a daytime shooting, I could not try shooting in one dark place of the features of the back -irradiation CMOS sensor, but I changed the camera settings or photographed without thinking about the composition, and the following four pieces are finished.rice field.
