LG is Working With Apple to Develop Foldable OLED Panel [Report]

LG is working with Apple to develop a new foldable OLED panel, according to a recent report from The Elec.

The site says that while LG will supply 17-inch foldable notebook OLED panels to HP this year, it is also working on a unique panel for Apple that uses a glass cover.

Meanwhile, the company is also collaborating with Apple to develop another foldable OLED panel. The panel is being designed for tablets and notebooks with ultra-thin glass as the cover window instead of polyimide.


The report follows rumors that Apple is considering the launch of a foldable MacBook with a 20-inch display.

This size could create a new category for Apple and would result in a true dual use product, a notebook with a full-size keyboard when folded and for use as a monitor when not folded and used with an external keyboard.

This device has purportedly been in development for a couple of years; however, it's unclear if it will see the light of day.
