The subsidiary of Samsung will be unveiling the first stretchable OLED display that is the most advanced yet, according to Korean state media. The working prototype of the panel displayed at the event has a diagonal size of 9.1-inches and can bend up to 12 mm in both directions as reported by PhoneArena. The panel will also be able to support higher display resolutions.

The report also mentions that Samsung will most likely introduce their new stretchable OLED  display panels into their smartphones very soon.
