LG Wing now official

LG Electronics unveils its first Explorer Project device, the LG Wing.

Sporting a unique form factor, the LG Wing has a 6.8-inch FullHD+ P-OLED main display and a 3.9-inch G-OLED secondary display that swivels up to 90 degrees to form the shape of the letter T. This is made possible by a hinge module mechanism with a hydraulic damper that reduces stress when the main screen is rotated. When dropped, the accelerometer recognizes this instantaneously and retracts the pop-up camera lens to prevent any damage. The smartphone also has an IP54 rating for water and dust resistance.

It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Its North America version, however, offers more at 256GB. The LG Wing also has a 32MP pop-up front camera, as well as triple rear cameras consisting of a 64MP main with OIS, 12MP ultra-wide big pixel, and 13MP ultra-wide sensors. The engineers of the LG Wing took into consideration all its moving parts to employ features to enhance its durability and reliability.

The LG Wing switches seamlessly between Basic Mode and Swivel mode that offers an expanded and truly differentiated user experience. In Swivel mode, the entire front of the phone rotates clockwise which reveals the secondary display. With the Multi App feature on the LG Wing, users may maximize the display mode while watching videos, navigating through maps, and other applications.

Users can make the most out of its Dual Recording in Swivel Mode with its front camera and one of the phone’s rear cameras simultaneously. One unique feature of the LG Wing is its Gimbal Motion Camera in Swivel Mode which turns the secondary screen into a convenient grip, providing stability needed to capture clearer shots and smooth video footage in horizontal mode with one hand. Just like a real gimbal, users can find a joystick for controlling and locking camera angles. It features multiple modes like Follow for smoother videos when moving, Pan Follow for horizontal movement with minimal up and down shake, and First-Person View for capturing rhythmic and dynamic movements.
