- OLED displays can be fabricated on flexible plastic substrates, unlike LCDs which typically require rigid glass substrates. This flexibility is a major advantage. - Because of their flexibility and thinness, roll-up or foldable displays embedded in clothing or other flexible surfaces are possible using OLEDs. - Specific designs of OLEDs can be made transparent, allowing for futuristic transparent displays used in windows, screens, etc., which is generally not possible with LCD technology which relies on a backlight.
