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 or 16:10, this seems like something intended for desktop applications or a luggable gaming notebooks.
However, 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.

I never... ever... purchase ANYTHING with the name/logo of "Samsung" attached to that product.
TBH, I would like to see a roll up monitor like the rollup keyboards. Just one of those neat tech ideas.
The sweet spot is 100% 27" 1440p high refresh. We just need it in OLED.
Keep in mind that the article talks about flexible displays that can be flat and curved.
introducing distortion by default and requireing the user to sit 100% still for the entire duration is not good, theres also a reason why TV's arent curved, this is purely marketing at work :\
Do you think this is a beta test to see if there is a market for such a feature?
Come to think of it, I wonder if this would be popular as Laptop screens, shrunk of course.
27″ – 32″ 4K High Refresh Rate OLED Displays
LG mentioned that high refresh rate OLED monitors are on the horizon, but there’s no word on anything specific, including release date or pricing.I hope they sell these for around $500. Talk to me LG.
