LG Demos 65-Inch Rollable OLED TV

Last week we showed you LG’s latest TV that rolls up like a poster and now we have some video to share of the company giving a demo. At the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show, LG showed off their 65-inch rollable OLED television, and folks were appropriately wowwed.

The 16:9 screen can be remotely rolled down and stored into its base, and now we see it can stop at different heights to display different aspect ratios like 21:9 and hide those black bars. It can even display as a small strip to display the weather, streaming audio information, and more. The whole thing makes a lot more sense when you see it in action:

This design makes sense for a whole lot of reasons, the best reason being that a design like this will allow us to get larger TVs in our home and roll them up when they are not being used. That way they take up practically no space at all. I really like where LG is going with this and I seriously hope that they get something like this out to the market sooner rather than later.
