The price of the much-anticipated rollable smartphone from LG has been tipped by the same leaker who revealed the specifications.
The rollable phone will be the second phone under LG Explorer project with the first one being the LG Wing.
The phone could launch in the first half of 2021.
While LG has already become the first manufacturer to sell a rollable OLED TV commercially, looks like its rollable smartphone dream isn't far either. Rumoured suggest that the company could launch a smartphone with a rollable display by the first half of 2021. The phone will be reportedly called LG Rollable or LG Slide and is being developed under LG's Explorer project.
While the launch still seems afar, tipster Tron (@cozyplanes) has poured tons of details about the highly-anticipated smartphone, and this time he's revealed the price. As per the tipster, the LG Rollable smartphone could be priced at $2,359 (approx Rs 1,73,400). That doesn't come as a surprise as we've seen more such first-generation of such innovative handsets to be priced on the higher side. To put things in perspective, the iPhone 12 Pro Max 256GB costs $1099 in the US and Rs 1,39,000 in India.
