LG Display shared the video of its new 48-inch OLED gaming TV, which can be folded from a flat screen to a curve with the push of a button, and watching it in motion is fascinating. Check it out at the top of this post.
The flexible screen orientations allow you to watch TV in flat orientation and play with the curve, for example. The company’s video also shows how the screen can be used for a racing game from a first-person perspective in the cabin, which seems more like a practical use of a flexible TV. If you prefer racing games with a flat screen, you can keep the TV like this or choose to bend it if you find it more engaging.
The TV can bend up to a radius of 1,000 mm, has a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz and offers a variable refresh rate from 40 Hz to 120 Hz. It also features LG’s Cinematic Sound OLED (CSO) technology, which vibrates the screen to create sound in place of the speakers. LG has shown similar technology before with prototypes of TVs and the LG G8 from last year, but since CES is virtual this year, we cannot personally guarantee how well CSO technology really works on this new monitor.
If you just want to see the screen change from flat to curved and vice versa, we created this hypnotic GIF for you. Appreciate.
