LG Display, the company that makes most of the OLED panels used in today’s televisions and monitors, has announced a major rebranding of its OLED technology lineup. The move introduces two new product names: Tandem WOLED for larger TV and monitor panels and Tandem OLED for small and medium-sized device screens. This marks the first large-scale naming change for LG Display’s OLED tech in about 13 years.

The rebranding comes ahead of CES 2026 in Las Vegas, where LG Display plans to reveal its newest panels and OLED advancements to the public. The refreshed names reflect how the underlying OLED structures have evolved, and how the company positions its panels against rival display technologies such as Samsung’s QD-OLED and emerging RGB OLED solutions.

What “Tandem WOLED” Means

LG Display says Tandem WOLED will be the name for the large OLED panels used in TVs and desktop monitors. The term “tandem” refers to a layered OLED structure meant to improve performance. According to the company, the new name highlights benefits such as higher brightness, longer lifespan, better power efficiency, and stronger durability.

LG Display explained that the Tandem name was chosen to emphasize increased durability and performance, long life, high brightness, and low power consumption achieved through a laminated OLED structure.

These panels are widely used across major TV brands, including LG Electronics, Sony, Panasonic, Philips, Samsung, Hisense, Bang and Olufsen, and others.

What “Tandem OLED” Covers

The Tandem OLED name will apply to smaller OLED panels designed for laptops, tablets, automotive displays, and similar mid-sized devices. LG Display says this naming reflects the way two RGB element layers are stacked, enhancing overall luminance and color performance for these form factors.

The company noted that the small and medium-sized OLED branding directly reflects the technical structure of stacking two RGB element layers, which is why the Tandem OLED name was selected.

These panels are supplied to a range of device makers, including Apple, Asus, Acer, and LG Electronics.

Teasing OLED Technologies for 2026

LG Display is already hinting at what’s coming next. The company has shared previews of “Primary RGB Tandem 2.0,” a next-generation OLED platform expected to push brightness levels higher than the current generation.

Early visuals show a curved 39-inch Tandem WOLED panel with an ultrawide 5120×2160 resolution, along with a 27-inch high-pixel-density Tandem WOLED panel aimed at desktop use.

LG Display says these and other OLED updates will be formally introduced at CES 2026 in early January.
