The New LG Rollable OLED Screen


After years of development, LG's rollable OLED screen is on display. This paper thin, rollable material can be poked and moved without disrupting the image.

This screen is made of plastic that is able to capture the organic light it emits through diodes.

This technology can soon be used in many practical ways. Imagine being able to have a TV screen in your school binder, backpack or pocket!

LG has already experimented with this technology in some of their phones (like the LG Flex 2) but so far these screens have had to be protected with glass.

Lately LG has been in the news a lot for their innovation - such as their new LG 360 VR.
