Teardown of unreleased LG Rollable shows why rollable phones aren't a thing

The LG Rollable's teardown decisively proves why rollable phones failed to become a reality. The fragile mechanism, a complex multi-layer assembly, showed visible wear after just 500 cycles—half the standard of foldable rivals. Worse, the bulkiness, measuring 15.2mm thick when rolled—30% thicker than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3—made the phone impractical for everyday carry.
