The display industry nerd-fest known as SID/Display Week has been converted to a virtual event, scheduled for August 3-7. […]
It is reasonable to suggest that LG’s transparent OLED displays are products that generate a lot of excitement from potential users, but disillusionment when they find out how much the screens cost (hint – LOTS!). The things are gorgeous, but working out valid use-cases and getting a return on the investment has been elusive. […]
This is a video from Beijing’s subway system, in a passenger car that has digital signage running in a window. It is on line 6, and my guess is the display is a transparent OLED. There’s no side lighting to make it LCD and the pitch is, by the looks of it, far too tight to be LED on film. […]

LG has had its press conference at CES this morning, and while there was lots of cool consumer stuff, it was more about appliances and gaming than about displays – though there was lots of talk about OLED, as you might expect. No real signage-ish stuff to report, however. There is now a 48-inch OLED, with the previous smallest TV being 55-inches. […]
LG Display has reported a big loss in its recent Q3 earnings release, its third bad quarter in a row – forcing out the longtime CEO, prompting a round of voluntary departures and most interesting in the context of the commercial display business, the start of a move away from LCD. […]
LG has gone very big on OLED displays in recent years – making the super-thin, flexible and generally gorgeous displays the centerpiece of the company’s marketing efforts at trade shows. They bend, they curve, they hang like wallpaper and for some of them, they’re see-through. […]
