The South Korean company LG files a patent for a foldable display case made of an OLED screen. Making it possible to transform the basic screen of an LG phone into a large screen.
Here is the strategy that LG has found to compete with the new foldable smartphones, such as the Galaxy Fold or the Motorola Razr, whose release is announced for the beginning of 2020. These innovative smartphones have the characteristic of being expensive and also very fragile. For example, the foldable screen of the Galaxy Fold, during the first user tests indeed took two days before breaking and completely blackening.
In response to the rise of foldable smartphones, LG had already made a bold proposal: a case compatible with the brand’s high-end phones, the LG V50 and the LG G8x. This case, the LG dual screen, is simply a flip case with its own screen. It does not work independently, but by connecting with an LG smartphone. Thus, when the case is open it becomes possible to take advantage of a double screen. This allows you to access new features, perform multiple tasks and play certain games.
