LG has sent out invites for a "big event" in London on May 27, with simultaneous satellite events in New York and San Francisco, as well as events in Seoul, Singapore and Istanbul the following day.
LG could not confirm the exact nature of the event(s), but it's rumored that the company will announce a new flagship smartphone, the LG G3, and quite possibly unveil its previously announced LG G Watch.
The tagline for the event — a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson, "To be simple is to be great" — reveals little besides a likely showing of a G series device. But LG previously told Engadget it plans to launch the G3 in the second quarter of 2014. No specifications were given, except the fact that the phone's screen resolution will be Quad HD, possibly 2,560 x 1,440 pixels.
LG recently launched a microsite detailing some of the G Watch's features. The Android Wear-based device will be "always on," as well as water- and dust-resistant. LG also said it would become available in the second quarter of 2014.
We'll be covering the May 27 event live, so stay tuned for more details.
