I wonder if they will still use Qualcomm like samsung still does here and in the rest of europe.

^ I always found that funny. Samsung could be using their own chips but I guess they like building stuff and suing Apple to put it at the very top of the list.

Neat stuff, as great as the G2 and GPad 8.3 are it'll be neat to see how their successors turn out.

LG will be like Samsung, but not like Apple. Samsung doesn't make custom processors yet relying instead on ARM designs.

Qualcomm and Apple do design custom ARM processors, and both are a step above companies that just make ARM designs.

Samsung is planning on making their own designs as they have a license from ARM to do so, but they're not there yet.

I find it funny how LG pretty much copies whatever Samsung is doing and tries to make it better. Samsung makes VA panels. LG makes IPS panels... Can't wait to buy my LG Washing Machine/Dryer combo unit.

So far, I'm really liking LG's version of Samsung.
