Japan Display Inc. (JDI) announced the development of FULL ACTIVE FLEX, which uses a plastic substrate for both sides of the liquid crystal layer, and its introduction into a 5.5-inch Full-HD LCD display for smartphone devices.
 
FULL ACTIVE FLEX makes it possible to form curved shapes by utilizing its flexibility, and will help to expand the degrees of freedom in smartphone design. By using plastic substrates instead of glass, it is possible to prevent cracking from occurring when the display is dropped.
 
JDI is planning to start mass production of this display in 2018.
