Choi said that the prototype, which has yet to get a production date or price, was chosen over a foldable option. “As the leading provider of OLED technologies, this just convinces me that we have a lot more coming between us,” said Pat Gelsinger, Intel’s chief executive. Gelsinger earlier introduced the 13th-generation Core processor, code-named Raptor Lake , though he later downplayed an imminent 6GHz chip . Samsung Display’s slidable OLED display.
