Like LG&#8217;s older Dual Screen case, it&#8217;s an external display for your LG phone. Unlike the older version, it can fold out into a tablet-sized display, giving you more space than before.<\/p>\n<p>This is because the phone will be able to both sit in the display case like LG&#8217;s current dual-screen case, or sit outside it entirely via a new connector design allowing for a larger surface area. When folded, it&#8217;ll be pretty much like the Huawei Mate X, when unfolded, it&#8217;ll be able to be a bit larger than your typical foldable. Since the display and the phone aren&#8217;t linked together, you&#8217;ll also be able to easily replace it should it get damaged.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/lg-patents-foldable-oled-case-looks-mate-x\" title=\"LG patents a foldable OLED case that looks like the Mate X\" georiot-ignore=\"true\" class=\"norewrite\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.androidcentral.com\/sites\/androidcentral.com\/files\/styles\/large\/public\/article_images\/2019\/12\/lg-smartphone-met-display-hoesje.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now, it&#8217;s just a patent and not necessarily evocative of an actual shipping product, but it&#8217;s interesting in itself. One thing LG does really well is thinking outside the box.
