Report: Here’s when you should expect LG’s rollable phone

LG will reportedly launch its rollable smartphone in March 2021.
The company previously teased the design at the LG Wing launch.

Rumors and an official tease point to LG launching a rollable smartphone some time in the future, dubbed Project B for now. This is said to offer a slide-out screen on the side that could enable a tablet-sized experience in your pocket.

Now, Korean outlet The Elec reports that this rollable smartphone will launch in March 2021. This echoes the “early 2021” launch window touted by the publication earlier this year.

There isn’t much else to know about the Project B device just yet, but it’s believed that LG will produce the device itself rather than relying on an original design manufacturer (ODM). Speaking of ODMs, The Elec claims that the LG Velvet 2 — or whatever the successor is called — will be outsourced.

Waiting for a more traditional high-end device? Well, the publication notes that LG’s next flagship phone, code-named Rainbow, will be launched in Q1 2021. It suggests that the new phone will be equivalent to the LG V series in terms of specifications. So we’d expect a Snapdragon 875 chipset and other flagship garnishings.

Nevertheless, between the rollable smartphone, Velvet 2, and Rainbow, it looks like the Korean brand might have a varied lineup in 2021. The rollable phone in particular could be a great answer to foldables like the Galaxy Z Fold 2, offering a large screen on demand. Hopefully the slide-out screen is more durable than foldable phones though.

Aukey Omnia 65W PD GaN charger: Power and versatility

Gallium Nitride chargers are the single biggest innovation to come to the relatively staid world of charging bricks. The size advantage can’t be overstated. Combined with USB-C, it makes using a single charger for all your devices a very realistic solution. Aukey is just one of the brands to have dived headfirst into the world of GaN chargers with a wide portfolio of products. In fact, I reviewed the company’s 100W charger recently. However, with charging sockets at a premium, the single port charger wasn’t quite cutting it for me. Now, I’ve been testing the Aukey Omnia 65W PD GaN charger for the last few weeks. It aims to solve just that problem. How well does it perform? We find out in the Android Authority review of the Aukey Omnia 65W PD GaN charger. Aukey 65W PD GaN charger: What is it?

Cooler Master NotePal U3 Plus review: Modular and powerful

There are many types of laptops. However, gaming laptops are the biggest culprit for overheating. They have the strongest CPUs in the laptop space along with powerful GPUs. Both work really hard when gaming and it’s hard to keep them cool in the process. Some laptop coolers work for your everyday tasks and they’re fine. It takes something a little extra to work with gaming laptops and that is what Cooler Master was going for with the NotePal U3 Plus. Here is our review to see if it works.

Huawei Watch Fit hands on: The skinny Apple Watch

The Huawei Watch Fit looks like what you’d get if you threw a Huawei Band 4 Pro and a Huawei Watch GT 2 into an Apple Watch blender. It’s arguably a more fashion-forward wearable than a traditional fitness tracker or standard smartwatch, but it still packs enough smarts to fit in the “Huawei Watch” line rather than the “Huawei Band” family. Let’s take a closer look.

I’m a fan of a chunky watch personally, but the diminutive appeal of the Huawei Watch Fit is not lost on me. Beyond the eye-catching Cantaloupe Orange you see here, the Watch Fit also comes in Sakura Pink, Graphite Black, and Mint Green. The diminutive appeal of the Huawei Watch Fit is not lost on me. I’m less enamored by the unoriginal styling. It may lack creativity but will...
