The video is a setting that someone is watching the LG Press conference on an LG rollable smartphone. The person in the video opens the screen that was rolled up in the back while using the LG rollable with a bar-shaped general smartphone. The rectangular screen becomes wider like a tablet PC, and the LG Electronics press conference is also coming up.
Then, at the end of the press conference video, the unfolded screen rolls in, and the product name’LG RollableTM’ appears. This is a pet name that matches expectations so far. Earlier in the industry, it was observed that LG Electronics will register the brand names’LG Rollable’ and’LG Slide’ in the US market, and the pet name will be one of the two.
LG Electronics did not disclose the overall design and specifications of LG Rollable on this day. The focus was on raising expectations in the form of’Teasing’ that shows only a part of the entire product. As it takes less than three months to actually launch the product, it is interpreted as a strategy that will once again gather public expectations for LG Rollables at CES, which attracts attention from around the world. In addition, it is interpreted as the confidence that it will take the lead in the smartphone market through form factor innovation.
