LG is Cooking Up Touchless, Wavy Magic for MWC Reveal

LG MWC 2019

On Sunday, February 24 at MWC, LG is going to reveal their next big thing. It could be this tired-design-of-a-phone or it could be something unexpected. The teaser that LG just sent out hints at something unexpected.

In the video below, a short video shows a hand waving over the top of a piece of paper as the words “Goodbye Touch” appear. The hand then performs a pushing gestures to announce that the event is called “LG Premiere.”

What should we take from this? LG might have built something into their next phone that uses a lot of gestures. The thought of waving “goodbye” to touch can really only mean that LG has something planned to let you control a gadget without having to physically touch it. And look, I’m all about the gesture controls that look like mid-air magic.
