2019 could be the year of the flexible OLED: a source with Bloomberg claims that LG will begin selling their long-teased, rollable OLED next year, which was on display at last year’s CES. According to the source, the 65” display will “retract automatically at the touch of a button like a garage door.” Others point out it could be “rolled up and stuffed into a box when not in use.” Pricing isn’t yet known.
LG is counting on so-called “rollable” and OLED televisions to revive a consumer electronics business that’s grappling with price declines and stiffening Chinese competition. The South Korean conglomerate is shedding workers to streamline and refocus around future technologies, such as flexible displays. A prototype of the television displayed at LG’s research center in Seoul can be rolled up and stuffed into a box when not in use.
