LG’s new phone with a radical design is
expected to arrive on October 5. According to industry insiders, the launch was
supposed to be in two weeks, on September 25, but eventually, the Korean
manufacturer decided to postpone the LG Wing arrival with 10 more days.
This phone is going to have a 6.8” main
display, with the secondary screen having a square shape and 4” diagonal. The
device will be powered by a Snapdragon 765G, coupled with 8 GB RAM. While
initial pricing was supposed to be around KRW 2 million (US$ 1,600/€ 1,400),
the more realistic price tag is half of that.
The Korean company said on Monday there’ll
be an official teaser of the LG Wing, followed by 4 weeks of testing process
with select users and when this is done, the official launch will take place.
While this seems like an unusual and over-complicated way to bring a phone to
the market, it is pretty standard for the local scene - LG did the exact same
thing when the Velvet arrived earlier this year.
