If you are looking for a phone that is different, I think LG has the answer. The LG Wing is designed unlike any other device, with a screen that rotates to reveal a smaller second screen.
Richard Lai spent time with a pre-production unit and couldn’t resist playing with the screen: “Once I got the hang of it, it felt like playing with a large toy made for the right hand.” Before we go over the highlights of Friday and the rest of last week in this roundup, check out their video to see it in action and imagine what other wacky phone designs you’d like to see one of these companies try.

Yes, it is basically what we expected.
A lot of details about the Pixel 5 had already been leaked beforehand, and we also had an idea what it would include from the Pixel 4a, which arrived this summer. Yes, we got the same screen style, with a pinhole front camera, and unsurprisingly, the Pixel 5 comes with a 6-inch, 2340 x 1080 screen. There is no XL model this year, just this model.
Google is also bringing back the missing fingerprint sensor from last year’s Pixel 4. No more face unlock feature that didn’t set the world on fire. Also missing this year are the strange non-contact controls that worked with an ultra-wideband radar sensor on the screen. The Pixel 5 has a dual camera on the back.
