The Xeta One uses the mini displays from the LG Wing

A few years ago, back when LG still made phones, the company released one of the most innovative and interesting phones we had seen in that day and age, The LG Wing. This was a phone with a swivel action display that could actually flip 90° into landscape mode, revealing a miniature display underneath. Well, LG wing mini displays are being repurposed into a phone called the Xeta One.

The Xeta One is a phone that’s referred to as a renovation project, so it’s not likely that you will see it hitting the shelves. It’s currently a crowdfunded project, so if you are interested, you can check it out. However, be sure to read the description and the fine print before you send any money.

The second you look at this phone, it’s obvious what fandom it’s trying to appeal to. If you remember the Blackberry Keyone from back in the day, then it will look familiar. The Xeta One has a relatively small 3.9-inch display that sits atop a physical QWERTY keyboard. We’ve seen several attempts at reviving the physical keyboard in smartphones over the years.

So, where does the LG Wing come into this? Well, the 3.9-inch display on this phone is made from the repurposed mini display on the LG Wing. So, the case, then this phone will have a very nice display, as LG’s phone displays were some of the best on the market.

As for the phone itself, we don’t know too much about it. However, the announcement video shows us a few of the specs. We don’t know exactly what processor it’s using, but it says that it’s using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 5G processor. It will have 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The storage will be expandable up to 2TB. As for the display, since it’s using repurposed LG Wing mini displays, it is a pOLED panel with a resolution of 1080 x 1240. Other than that, this phone will launch with Android 13.
