LG Rollable or LG Slide Smartphone with side-rolling display has been in the talks for sometime now. The handset is expected to launch sometime in June 2021 and now, LG Rollable phone has been spotted in South Korea’s carrier Intranet Database. This also hints that LG is working on this rollable screen phone and it could be potentially revealed in 2021. LG has already revealed its TV set with rollable display at CES 209 and now it looks like it could introduce the same tech in smartphones as well.

Twitter tipster @cozyplanes leaked that LG Slide or LG Rollable has been registered in South Korea’s carrier Intranet Database. The carrier model number is LM-R910N and the unlocked model number is OMD-LM-R910N. The tipster unveils little else about the rumored rollable handset and carrier registration hints that LG could be working on it. A recent trademark seems to hint that the first rollable OLED phone of LG might be called LG Slide. The highly anticipated smartphone will be the second under LG’s ‘Explorer Project’.

A render in the past suggested that the rollable OLED phone, whatever it may be called, might have a flexible display that can be rolled into its casing.

LG Wing with swivel-screen is the first phone of the company in the Explorer Project and the LG Slide or LG Rollable might be the second one. The phone was also trademarked with EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office) where the name was mentioned as LG Rollable. It is possible that LG Rollable and LG Slide are two different phones that the company might be working on and it might have distinctions that are not known yet. A recently released patent separately suggests that LG is working on a laptop with a rollable 17-inch display.
