LG Display Said to Be Working on 20-inch OLED Panel and Bendable OLED Panels



According to news out of South Korea, LG Display is readying a 20-inch OLED display which should become available to its partners by the end of the year. It’s intended for "personal devices" but seems to be too big for a tablet or a laptop display. Admittedly the Elec who broke the story, didn’t mention which aspect ratio the panel would have, but even at 16:9 oppure 16:10, this seems like something intended for desktop applications or a luggable gaming notebooks.

Tuttavia, LG is apparently working on a range of new OLED display panels, of which some will be bendable so the user can choose to have a flat or a curved monitor. LG has already seen a decent update of its OLED products when it comes to gaming displays, although presumably most of these are TVs. According to the Elec, LG said that most consumers prefer a curvature of between 800 to 1000R when gaming, although no source for this information was provided. According to LG, only its single glass substrate white OLED panels could be used for bendable LED monitors, as Samsung’s QD OLED panels use two glass substrates, which apparently makes them impossible to bend/flex to this degree.
