LG Display to Prioritize FLiPP OLEDs for Laptops, Monitors

What happened

At an online technical seminar held on October 8, LG Display's CTO Choi Young-seok said the company plans to prioritize its next-generation OLED patterning technology FLiPP for IT products such as laptops and monitors, while leaving open the possibility of future smartphone applications. LG Display will spend about a year reviewing how existing LCD and OLED production equipment can be reused or modified to reduce capital investment. FLiPP remains in the technology development stage, with mass production targeted for the coming years; development began in July 2025 and has been demonstrated on an eighth‑generation glass substrate. Compared with conventional FMM, FLiPP increases panel utilization rate from 75% to more than 93% for a 23.5‑inch panel, improves organic emissive material utilization from 40% to 74%, reduces deposition time by about 40%, raises the aperture ratio to 65% from 42%, and can increase luminance by 1.6 times, extend lifespan by 2.4 times, or reduce power consumption by 13% depending on design priorities. LG Display will initially focus on IT OLED applications, including laptops and monitors. The source does not state the cause for this prioritization.
