Flexible displays gained popularity nearly two years ago when the LG G Flex and Samsung Galaxy Round were released. Companies have been hard at work to invest in the technology required to output devices with flexible/curved displays since. There are a few choices when it comes to the specific type of display used, but it seems that OLED will dominate in 2015.
A report published by IHS claims that 75% of the flexible displays produced this year will be OLED rather LCD or display types. The structure of an OLED display gives it an advantage because of how it produces light itself to focus on different locations. LCD displays, on the other hand, require a backlight for the entire screen. The lack of a backlight provides devices with OLED displays to maintain color quality. More importantly, having no backlight means that the display is thinner and that obviously assists in flexibility.
