What LG TV/Table/Tablet is playing that Chess game? It's foldable? Doesn't seem like they mention it and I'm wondering if it's an actual product or a photoshopped photo to illustrate original "big screen" content.

The CELEBe shoutout caught my eye, too. It's pretty interesting to see LG promoting a crypto-incentivized social media platform. Never heard of CELEBe before.
