Fold your display

At the International Meeting on Information Display (IMID) held in Korea, LG Philips showcased its largest flexible electronic display to date.

Touted as an E-paper, the 14.1-inch widescreen has a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels and displays text in monochrome. With a refresh rate of 300ms, don't expect to run any videos on this device. Unlike your normal pulp-based sheet, this innovation requires power to imprint the images on the surface. We look forward to the day when picking up soaking wet newspapers on our lawn becomes a thing of the past.
