The rumors concerning LG's upcoming flexible display smartphone are finally over - the South Korean company has just announced the LG G Flex in a press release. Unfortunately this press release is only available in Korean for now, but if any minor details may be missed, the main specs cannot be lost in translation.

The technical specs and features of the LG G Flex clearly suggest that the handset is based on the LG G2 flagship (it even has the power and volume buttons on the back):

  • Processor: quad-core 2.26 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800
  • Memory/Storage: 2 GB RAM; 32 GB internal storage and microSD support
  • Display: 6-inch HD curved plastic OLED touchscreen with 1,280X720 pixels
  • Camera: 13 MP back, 2.1 MP front
  • Connectivity: LTE-A & LTE, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 3.0
  • Operating system: Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
  • Weight/Dimensions: 0.39 pounds; 6.32X3.21X0.31-0.34 inches
  • Battery: 3,500 mAh

Available in Titan Silver finish only, the LG G Flex also offers perfect sound quality for audiophiles (24-bit and 192 kHz playback) and the back of the display is built using a special scratch resistant material.

The handset will launch next month in South Korea but pricing and international availability are still unknown at this time.

Although I have been writing about new software and hardware for almost a decade, I consider myself to be old school. I always enjoy listening to music on CD or tape instead of digital files and I will not even get into the touchscreen vs physical keys debate. However, I also enjoy new technology, as I now have the chance to take a look at the future every day. I joined the Notebookcheck crew back in 2013 and I have no plans to leave the ship anytime soon.
