The Consumer Electronics Show, or CES, has been one of the biggest tech events of the year. However, like most other major conventions, the ongoing pandemic has forced CES organizers to transform the 2021 show into a fully digital virtual event. However, that hasn’t stopped most of the bigger players at the event from sparking interest in its latest products, including LG, which has just announced some cutting-edge and transparent OLED displays that the company will showcase during its CES-related activities.
