So maybe the company is taking an approach like the Surface Duo, opting for two durable screens rather than one flexible one. Or maybe it\u2019s something like LG\u2019s second screen case \u2014 an add-on for existing devices. But neither of those really explain the teaser.<\/p>\n<p>The curvature where the screens meet would be really weird for a Duo-like device. It\u2019s also weird that both displays show earpieces and both have a cutout for the camera in the upper left corner (you can see the stars disappear as they pass by where the camera would be).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1252693 js-lazy\" alt=\"LG's second screen case\" width=\"1640\" height=\"878\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1640px) 100vw, 1640px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141.png 1640w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-280x150.png 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-504x270.png 504w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-252x135.png 252w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-796x426.png 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-1592x852.png 1592w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.thenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2021%2F08%2F11%2Foneplus-folding-phone-hmmmmmm%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: LG\u2019s second screen case\" data-title=\"Share LG\u2019s second screen case on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share LG\u2019s second screen case on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>LG\u2019s second screen case<\/figcaption><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1252693\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141.png\" alt=\"LG's second screen case\" width=\"1640\" height=\"878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141.png 1640w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-280x150.png 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-504x270.png 504w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-252x135.png 252w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-796x426.png 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2019\/10\/Snag_18dc141-1592x852.png 1592w\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>Meanwhile, there doesn\u2019t seem to be any kind of case around the phones either. I think I can just barely make out the USB-C ports in the reflections beneath the screens.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the clip basically just seems to show two phones stuck together, and that does not make for a folding phone. Besides, if this were a major reveal, I\u2019d expect OnePlus to show it off on its primary <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> account, not just its American one with a fifth the number of followers.<\/p>\n<p>So it\u2019s anyone\u2019s guess what OnePlus is actually planning to show off. Maybe it\u2019s some kind of 2-for-1 deal, or maybe there really is a folding phone on the way. Either way, it\u2019s clearly just building off of Samsung\u2019s hype \u2014 we\u2019ll find out more soon.<\/p>\n<p><i>Did you know we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter all about consumer tech?
