LG is reportedly planning to launch the LG G Flex, a smartphone with a curved display.

According to CNET, which has got its hands on the design sketch seen below, the LG G Flex is set for a November launch and will feature a 6in curved plastic OLED display.

• Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 @ 2.3GHz
