[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] LG HelloVision has launched the most suitable SIM card combination benefits for unlocked phone users through the Hello Mobile Direct Mall in line with the release of the iPhone 12.

First, considering the characteristics of premium phone customers who are heavy data users, the basic combination is configured with a 'data unlimited SIM' and benefits are segmented for ▲latest iPhone 12 (unlocked phone) customers ▲existing iPhone series (unlocked phone·used phone) customers.

From today, customers participating in the promotion can simply enter unlocked phone information in the LMS sent after SIM subscription, and receive Apple chargers, TUVA repair coupons (15,000 KRW), and selectable products (electric massage gun·health supplements) as basic benefits.

They also proposed combinations with 'Apple SIM 2 types' for iPhone 12 unlocked phone customers. ▲The completely unlimited product 'Apple 5G Special SIM 180GB (66,000 KRW)', which is 9,000 KRW cheaper than telecom carriers ▲The 10,000 KRW range data safety product 'Apple Safety SIM 5GB 100 minutes (14,900 KRW)' are targeted.

Customers using existing iPhone models can also receive the same promotional benefits by subscribing to Hello Mobile's steady seller unlimited data SIM plans such as 'Unlimited 33 SIM', regardless of whether they use unlocked or used phones.

Along with the promotion, plans to sequentially introduce within the year ▲SIM-only iPhone device insurance ▲used iPhone (XR·XS) sales with significantly increased subsidies are also underway.

Han Jeong-ho, head of LG HelloVision's mobile business, said, "Smart consumers who want to minimize communication costs while using expensive premium phones are choosing to subscribe to budget phones," adding, "We will continue various attempts to enhance the benefits and accessibility of SIM products that fit well with unlocked phones."
