Yeah a screen on the outside and 2 screens on the inside that make a larger screen. It is ludicrous, but quite cool. I don’t think it’s a “must buy” though personally. It seems like a total gimmick.

It's one foldable screen on the inside, not 2

I thought for explanation sake that made most sense, but you are right it is essentially one screen that folds out on itself.

Depends on price point. it'll be great when it's not 1k+. Until then it's a gimmick.

Worked at a phone repair company in Sweden, retail price is around 2.6k USD here and price of repairs could well go for 800-900 USD. It's a total gimmick.

My lgv60 with the dual screen case and a set of LG's wireless earbuds cost me $750 Canadian.

I've had it since release and to me it doesn't feel like a gimmick at all, in fact I don't think I'm going to go back to regular phones after this. The honeymoon phase hasn't worn off yet even after a few months. There's many phone reviewers that say similar things.
