LG Display has decided to unveil '48-inch 'Cinematic Sound OLED (CSO) Panel' optimized for gaming at CES 2021, the world's largest IT and home appliance exhibition to be held online on Jan. 11.

LG Display announced on Jan. 3 that the "48-inch bendable CSO panel" is characterized by being able to freely bend and unfold the screen up to 1,000R (a bend of 1,000mm in radius) by utilizing the advantages of OLED panels that are as thin as paper.

It is used in a plane when watching TV, and can be used as a curved screen when playing games, providing a uniform viewing distance from the center of the screen to the edge to maximize visual immersion.

This product applies "CSO" technology, which vibrates the OLED panel itself without a separate speaker and makes sound directly on the screen, providing a vivid sense of reality as the users feel as if the characters on the screen are talking directly. When it is curved, the sound is concentrated around users to maximize its effectiveness.

Oh Chang-ho, vice president of LG Display's TV business division, said, "The 48-inch bendable CSO will provide gamers with a different level of gaming experience that traditional displays cannot match."
