SEOUL -- It was a moment LG Electronics could be proud of. The South Korean company, long overshadowed by compatriot Samsung Electronics, showed off its 65-inch roll-up TV at this year's CES in Las Vegas, drawing applause from the crowd and proving again its prowess in manufacturing cutting-edge display panels.
But LG's success in high-end TVs stands in sharp contrast to its troubles in the smartphone market, where it struggles to survive amid competition from Apple, Samsung and, increasingly, Chinese players like Huawei Technologies.
