LG G Flex is worlds second curved display smartphone

LG has unveiled the world’s second flexible display smartphone known as the LG G Flex. The need for curved displays and flexible screens are now becoming a new battleground for smartphone makers. Flexible screens are seen to open up possibilities that will transform the high tech smartphone market which could be worth billions.

Curved display smartphones provide a better grip than the flat-screen models, but currently they lack some of the must have features like the flat screen ones means they are unlikely to be big hits anytime soon.
