LG Display is the world's top supplier of the large-size OLED panels.LG Display was also projected to see a big improvement in its plastic OLED (POLED) display business as the supply of its mobile panels to Apple started to enter full swing following the introduction of the iPhone 12 smartphone.Analysts said LG Display's fourth-quarter earnings are also expected to stay in the black despite the seasonal effect on IT display demand.( With inputs from IANS )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
