It will showcase the Eco Square OLED technology used in the Galaxy Z Fold 3, which improves the transmission rate by 33 percent and reduces power consumption by up to 25 percent compared to previous versions with the traditional polarizer.

The company will also unveil an under-display camera solution, which hides the front-facing camera under the screen, embedded in the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Samsung’s exhibition will include a 7.2-inch panel with a folding design introduced earlier this year.

Such a display, called S-foldable, allows the mobile device to be used as a smartphone when double wrapped and used as a tablet when fully exposed. It will display a 17.3-inch folding panel with a resolution of 4: 3 again. It can serve as a 13-inch notebook display when folded but can also be converted into a computer-like screen guard when opened.

LG Display, the world’s largest OLED TV panel, said it would introduce the 88-inch cinematic OLED technology, as well as a smart bed with a 55-inch OLED display.

Aimed at game lovers, it will showcase a variety of products, including a 48-inch OLED cinema audio display that can vibrate and create sound without the use of speakers and a 34-inch curved gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate. The company will also introduce OLED plastic technology in the automotive sector, including a large T-shaped display made of four panels.
