The company said Friday that the flexible OLED panel has a h resolution of 1200 X 810 with almost 1 million mega-pixels.

Unlike the aforementioned 77-inch flexible TV that has a fairly limited range of changeable curvature, LG Display’s latest flexible OLED panel boasts a curvature radius of 30R. This means the 18-inch panel can be rolled up into a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm (1.18 in) without the function of the 1,200 x 810 pixel display being affected.The flexible display has a resolution of 1200 pixels by 810 pixels and maintains its function when it is rolled up. 

The company also said  by 2017, we will successfully develop an Ultra HD flexible and transparent OLED panel of more than 60 inches, which will have transmittance of more than 40 percent and a curvature radius of 100R, thereby leading the future display market.
