The company did not disclose any details of the phone. However, it mentions in its newsroom that LG Rollable is the second device under its Explorer Project. Moreover, this is not the first time the company is teasing the rollable smartphone. Back in September 2020 at the LG Wing official event, the company showed the profile of a device with its screen extended. Moreover, just like we have now seen in the CES 2021 presentation.

LG’s rollable display follows the moderate success of Samsung foldable smartphones. In addition, it comes as LG’s phone business is struggling financially due to stiff competition from the likes of Samsung, Huawei, and Apple.
