A new smartphone patent has been filed by LG, in which rollable and foldable phones have been mentioned. Filing this patent means that the company is ready to return to the smartphone business again.
Samsung's tension increased
Samsung's tension is going to increase due to LG's return to the market. At present, Samsung has become the leader of foldable smartphones in the global market. The company's fold and flip phones have the highest demand all over the world and the company also has the highest market share. However, this is not the first time that LG has filed a patent for its rollable phone. Even before this, the company had filed a patent for a rollable phone, the prototype of which was also revealed.
