LG Display Begins Mass Production of Industry’s First 13-Inch Tandem OLED Panel for Laptops

By Brian K Neal

LG Display, a leader in innovative display technologies, announced the commencement of mass production for the industry’s first 13-inch Tandem OLED panel specifically designed for laptops.

Targeting the OLED market, LG Display leverages Tandem OLED technology to enhance performance and reduce power consumption. First introduced in 2019, Tandem OLED technology combines two stacks of red, green, and blue (RGB) organic light-emitting layers, working in tandem to deliver superior durability and performance compared to single-layer OLED panels. This dual-layer approach results in a longer lifespan and higher brightness.

Initially applied to automotive OLEDs to meet high-quality standards and ensure reliable, long-term operation, Tandem OLEDs have proven optimal for IT products requiring extensive screen time, such as laptops, monitors, and tablets.

LG Display’s new 13-inch Tandem OLED panel, now applied to laptops for the first time, offers significant benefits tailored for laptop use. It delivers twice the lifespan and three times the brightness of conventional single-layer OLED displays, while reducing power consumption by up to 40%. This makes it ideal for high-performance IT devices, including AI laptops and standard laptops.

The panel’s design improvements and structural enhancements have made it approximately 40% thinner and 28% lighter than existing OLED laptop screens, facilitating sleek designs and greater portability.

Combining convenience and performance, the new panel boasts a WQXGA+ (2880×1800) high resolution and accurate color expression that meets 100% of the DCI-P3 standard color area established by the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI). This ensures high-definition content is presented with exceptional clarity.

Featuring OLED’s self-emissive pixels and infinite contrast ratio, the panel has been certified as Display HDR (High Dynamic Range) True Black 500 by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). This certification highlights its ability to display both bright and dark images with enhanced three-dimensionality and lifelike quality.

Additionally, LG Display has embedded a touch sensor inside the panel to improve touch performance, resulting in a highly sensitive total touch solution for a precise touch experience.

“We will continue to enhance the competitiveness of OLED products for IT applications and deliver differentiated customer value based on the unique strengths of Tandem OLED, such as long life, high brightness, and low power consumption,” said Jae-Won Jang, Vice President and Head of the Medium Display Product Planning Division at LG Display.
