What you are looking at is LG’s new flagship device, the G Flex. This is without a doubt one of the more “unique” devices that are out there and it’s sure to gain a little notoriety because of its attempt to break through the barriers of being flat and boring. I mean, what’s better than being immersed into a 6.0″ curved HD OLED display while you’re out and about? The reviews are in, the LG G Flex; will it beat the rest?
Curved…it’s the new flat
LG boasts that, “When held horizontally, the innovative curved display is engineered to provide an immersive viewing experience at optimal angles, which helps minimize glare from light reflections. Videos will come alive on-screen with bright imagery and less distortion.” The link can be found here.
