LGD to supply Xiaomi with curved flexible OLED panels
Apr 19th
Reports from Korea suggest LG Display has secured an OLED supply deal to Xiaomi, for the company’s next-gen flagship phone. LGD will supply Xiaomi with curved flexible OLEDs, similar to the ones used in Xiamoi’s Mi Note 2 . According to the report, LGD already supplies flexible OLEDs for Xiaomi’s Mi Note 2 – but with very limited volume. Once LG’s E5 fab starts producing panels later this year the company’s capacity will be increased dramatically and it will be able to support volume production to Xiaomi – and also to other handset makers in China. We recently reported that Apple is in talks with LGD regarding flexible OLED supply for the 2018 iPhone , and other reports say that Google is also discussing a possible supply agreement with LGD .

Dell brings back its UP3017Q 30" 4K OLED monitor and slashes the price by $1,500
Apr 13th
In early 2016 Dell announced the world’s first OLED monitor , the 30″ 4K Ultrasharp UP3017Q . This interesting and innovative monitor was supposed to be shipping in March 2016 for $4,999 – but that did not happen, and reports suggested that Dell canceled this monitor as the company was unhappy with the image quality of that OLED panel – especially the amount of color drift that it displayed when you viewed the monitor from the sides. But Dell now started shipping the UP3017Q , and the price is set at $3,499, or $1,500 lower than the original price Dell announced in 2016. Hopefully other companies will follow suit to release OLED monitors as well. Read more about Dell brings back its UP3017Q 30" 4K OLED monitor and slashes the price by $1,500

Apr 7th
LG Display has put on an ambitious OLED lighting display at Euroluce which is a part of the Milan Design Week. LG actually has two booths, with the first one designed by Tokujin Yoshioka. Tokujin’s installation is called Wall of the Sun, and it uses 30,000 of LGD’s OLED lighting panels installed on the wall. This makes this installation the world’s largest ever OLED lighting installation, which is double in size compared to Konica Minolta’s OLED Tulip installation from 2015 .
