Last October, LG Mobile executive director Hwang Jeong-Hwan said that LG was also developing a foldable smartphone, although it was not so eager to become the first manufacturer to introduce a device in this form factor. According to the head of LG Mobile, it is first necessary to determine consumer interest in such smartphones.
After this, a number of patent applications from the South Korean manufacturer became known, some of which show a foldable smartphone with a two-piece screen, others with a three-piece screen. LG developers offer different options for a folding smartphone, including versions with a display that folds inward, as well as with a display located on the outside of the device.
LetsGoDigital has discovered an LG Display patent with very special images. We are not talking about patent sketches, but about real photographs of an LG flip phone taken in the laboratory. They show a display with a flexible back plate.
