Samsung made a remarkable presence at the annual Display Week trade show in Los Angeles by showcasing its latest advancements in display technology. One of the highlights was the unveiling of a remarkable 12.4-inch rollable OLED panel, setting a new standard in the industry.
What sets Samsung’s rollable OLED panel apart is not only its large size but also its ability to roll into a compact scroll. With an impressive 5x scalability ranging from 49 mm to 254.4 mm, it surpasses the capabilities of existing sliding screens that can achieve only up to 3x expansion. Samsung Display achieved this feat by incorporating an O-shaped axis that mimics the mechanics of a scroll. Known as Rollable Flex, this panel offers a versatile display solution.
In addition to the Rollable Flex, Samsung also unveiled the Flex In & Out OLED panel, which introduces the ability to bend in both directions. This distinguishes it from current technologies that only allow flexible OLEDs to fold in one direction, as seen in devices like Samsung’s Galaxy Flip 4 and Fold 4.

Furthermore, Samsung introduced the world’s first OLED panel with an integrated fingerprint reader and heart rate sensor. Unlike existing implementations that rely on a limited sensor area, Samsung’s solution enables users to unlock their devices with a touch of a finger anywhere on the screen.
This groundbreaking technology integrates the organic photodiode (OPD), responsible for light sensing, directly into the panel itself. Additionally, the panel has the capability to monitor blood vessel contractions and relaxations, enabling it to measure blood pressure, heart rate, and stress levels.
Samsung’s impressive rollable OLED panel and innovative OLED technologies showcased at Display Week demonstrate the company’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of display advancements, offering enhanced flexibility, functionality, and user experiences.
