LG has been an innovative smartphone manufacturer, and we've seen some out-of-the-ordinary smartphones from it recently. The LG G5 was a notable attempt at a modular smartphone, while the more recent LG G8X ThinQ and LG Velvet were foldable dual-screen models. The LG Wing is yet another one that breaks conventions with a futuristic and completely different form factor. The primary display rotates to a horizontal position, revealing a smaller secondary display below it. The LG Wing forms a “T” shape when opened, and that raises a few questions – will this form factor be useful for multitasking, or is this just a cool party trick? Here is my review of the LG Wing.
LG Wing mobile was launched on 14th September 2020. The phone comes with a 6.80-inch touchscreen primary display offering a resolution of 1080x2460 pixels at a pixel density of 395 pixels per inch (ppi) and an aspect ratio of 20.5:9. The display sports Gorilla Glass for protection. It also features a 3.90-inch touchscreen as its second display, with a resolution of 1080x1240 pixels at a pixel density of 419 pixels per inch (ppi). LG Wing is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor. It comes with 8GB of RAM. The LG Wing runs Android 10 and is powered by a 4000mAh non-removable battery.

The rear camera setup has autofocus. It sports a 32-megapixel camera on the front for selfies with an f/1.9 aperture and a pixel size of 0.8-micron.
