Well, you can't accuse LG of being afraid to try something new. LG's next phone is the completely wild-looking LG Wing, a dual-screen design that looks like it spins open into a "T" shape thanks to a rotating hinge. Android Authority scored a 10-second video of the device that provides solid proof that this crazy idea actually exists.

The first news of the Wing phone came from Korean site ETNews earlier this year, which reported an October launch date. The site only had a mockup of the device at the time, which now seems spot on. The report says the device has a 6.8-inch main display, a 4-inch secondary display with a nearly 1:1 aspect ratio, and a Snapdragon 765G SoC. That would give it the same display and SoC as the LG Velvet.

The top and bottom halves of the phone are the same size, so it looks like the idea here is that the phone should fold up into a normal smartphone shape. LG basically built this design before on a feature phone, the LG VX9400, which showed up as Tony Stark's first phone in 2008's Iron Man.
