As early as 2014, it was rumored that LG would launch its own SoC, code named NUCLUN, like its competitors Samsung and Huawei. However, the chip performance was weak, and there was no mass production of other subsequent models. It was even rumored that LG had given up researching its own SoC.

However, on October 4, it was reported that LG had applied for two processor trademarks named EPIK and KROMAX from the EU Intellectual Property Office., The specific parameters are unknown, and may even be chips for IoT. But last year, Intel officially confirmed that it would contract for LG's ARM chips, and this would use the 10nm process. It can be basically confirmed that there will be a SoC for mobile phones.

However, both the original NUCLUN and NUCLUN2 have poor performance (including the rumored exposure score). Even if LG does release its own SoC, it is estimated that it is only a mid tier product at most and is unlikely to be used in its flagship product.
