LG, South Korean manufacturer has been involved in research in the field of curved screens and flexible recently unveiled the prototype of a TV screen in OLED technology 55 “, with a thickness of just 0.97mm and a weight of 1.9Kg. The device is so thin and light that can be attached to the wall simply supported by magnets applied on the back.

The new screen is much thinner than the current flagship model LG still boasting a thickness of 4.3mm. Compared to 0,97mm recorded by the prototype just presented is essentially a giant.

At present this is still a prototype and LG has not released any statement about when a gem like this could go into production , so it is obviously too early to talk about costs.

On the same day in which he made an appearance from 0.97mm OLED screen, LG has also introduced a curved screen large to be used mainly for the company in Russia. This giant 99 “could see the light this year.

The Korean manufacturer is pushing hard on the accelerator pedal as far as the television in OLED technology. Unlike conventional LCD TVs which require a backlight to function, OLED screens are based on trying to produce their own light through the use of organic material.

‘lack of equipment needed to illuminate the material allows you to create screens incredibly thin and even with the ability to bend or curl.

LG is one of the producers who are investing more in OLED so that Yeo Sang-deog, head of the division that is in charge of the development of OLED TV said the agency Yonhap:

“We should be able to provide a satisfactory volume of screens to our customers starting in July or August, this means that we are going to push ulteriormentte production as production from the third quarter of the year “
