The market of dual-screened phones is hotting up. We just had Motorola introduce it’s latest 5G-enabled foldable smartphone while the Fold 2 from Samsung made its way to the country earlier last month.
While LG has not launched a truly foldable device yet, it did announce the LG G8X ThinQ that follows the company's unique take on dual-display technology, thanks to its snap-on cover that houses the secondary display.
The phone debuted in India in December last year and retails for Rs. 54,990 currently. However, it will be available on Flipkart for Rs 19,999 making it a deal of the year of sorts. This deal is a part of the upcoming Big Billion Day sale that is scheduled from October 16 -21 and this price cut is temporary.
