Verizon first to carry awesome dual-screen LG Wing; preorders start October 1
BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Sept. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The world’s first 5G swivel smartphone, LG Wing, is set to arrive first at the network with Unlimited built right. Verizon today confirmed plans to open preorders for the LG Wing on October 1, and customers who switch can get the exciting dual-screen phone on us1.
LG Wing shows a different perspective with its unique dual-screen Swivel Mode. The 6.8-inch OLED FullVision display can pivot 90 degrees to reveal a 3.9-inch OLED Second Screen with camera controls and immersive content. Whether for work or play, the LG Wing offers a distinct phone experience with a twist.
Entertainment: Watch a video and chat with friends without sacrificing display area2. Gamers in select apps can also race on one screen and use the other to see a map to help anticipate upcoming tight turns.
Productivity: Multitaskers can look up directions and manage music without having to switch between apps. Feel free to check email and seamlessly browse the web when necessary; the 4,000 mAh battery has all-day staying power and wireless charging3.
Creativity: Flip out the main display to create the ultimate phone for video recording. A built-in Gimbal Motion feature helps film like a pro with a digital joystick for dramatic pans and steady shots on a subject.
A triple camera setup gives LG Wing great versatility: a 12-megapixel Ultra-Wide Gimbal Motion Camera, a 64-megapixel lens for brilliant photos and a 13-megapixel Ultra-Wide lens that captures the whole scene. Be ready to smile when the 32-megapixel Pop-Up front camera appears to capture amazing selfies4.
