LG’s first “rollable” smartphone with the code name ” Project B ” will be launched early next year.

Now it seems that even LG wants to enter the world of innovative devices with folding displays and would like to do so with a product with a “rollable” design (rollable). To date, the prototype is called “Project B” and the first patent about it emerged last year. According to a report, the South Korean giant would have already started working on a similar specimen, which would be ready for marketing for the next year. According to the rumors, the device will have a panel that spreads laterally using the flexible organic light-emitting diode to achieve this goal.

To make it a reality, LG Electronics would be working with the famous display manufacturer BOE about the creation of the OLED flex.

In addition to this smartphone, the South Korean company would be working on a series of premium smartphones; in the second half of the year LG could announce the new “Horizontal” (code name “, while next year” Rainbow “(also a provisional name). On the other hand, we don’t know anything about the technical specifications.

Recently the company presented Velvet, a product with a renewed design (compared to the past), 6.9-inch OLED display in 20.5: 9 format and 2460 x 1080 pixel resolution; under the body, we find a Snapdragon 765G with integrated 5G modem, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage with UFS 2.1 memories. On the back, there is a triple camera with a 48 Mpx main camera. It is rumored that the company will also distribute a slightly cheaper 4G variant of the smartphone on world markets.
