Sources linked to LG's screen division still claim that the company's intention Sony is not just about embedding technology in your devices, but also creating devices with flexible screens.
“We all know that Sony is working on flexible OLED displays. They want to incorporate OLED, a success factor of their recent TVs, into other devices such as foldable smartphones.” – says the source of Business Korea
Currently, LG Display already manufactures OLED s for the Sony, but only for Japanese TVs. With a new agreement to expand this production, the Japan Display (JDI), currently responsible for providing the screens for Xperia smartphones, could lose one of its biggest customers.
On the other hand, adopting the technology would be a big step in Sony towards rivals: OLED has become a very popular display technology among smartphones, mainly because it is flexible and to have great levels of brightness and color.
Smartphones with borderless design often use OLED on their screens. In addition to being foldable, this technology allows you to create screens with rounded corners more easily.
That is, when switching to OLED, the Sony would not only improve the screen of your devices, but would also have more freedom to dare in a new design.
