South Korean mobile phone maker LG Electronics is reportedly gearing up for the release of its first Google phone in its homeland country in the beginning of the next year.

Dubbed Nexus 4, the smartphone went available for purchase in various markets around the world in mid-November, but it seems that Google didn’t agree with LG bringing it to Korea as well before the end of 2012.

Next year, however, things will change, and mobile phone users in the country will be able to acquire the handset in the coming months.

For the time being, however, no specific info on when LG would have the smartphone ready for the South Korean market has been provided, though it might not be too long before specifics on this are offered, so stay tuned to learn additional details on this.
