While flexible OLED displays are most attributed to Samsung,
fellow Korean company LG are also planning to bring flexible OLED displays to
mobile devices with their new display production line. While it may seem LG is
stealing Samsung’s idea, LG is apparently using a different production process.
Aside, the above flexible prototype is not one straight from
LG’s factory, instead it is a device developed by Universal Display
Corporation. A company that appears to be have the same goal as LG and Samsung
in mind.
In order to achieve this LG is preparing a 3.5-Gen OLED
plant that will be able to pump out displays with plastic substrates, which
puts the flexible in front of flexible OLED. Saying this, we may not see fully
flexible phones and other devices for some time. Instead the flexible displays
will be will be thinner, more durable and less prone to impact than current
glass based displays. The flexible OLED display could also end the need for
Corning’s Gorilla Glass on phones.
