The Skinny on the Thinnest Displays
As display technology improves, our ability to create thinner, higher-resolution displays increases. Five years ago you would have been hard-pressed to find any displays less than 5mm thick, but now ultra-thin displays appear more frequently in consumer markets.
We've compiled this list of our thinnest displays available. You will find some amazingly thin OLED displays, the thinnest ePaper modules as well as a couple of slim OLEDs and even a TFT LCD that's less than 2mm thick.
The Thinnest ePaper Displays
ePaper in general is one of the thinnest display technologies. Most of our ePaper display modules are less than 2mm! Click to see all of our ePaper display modules. The absolute thinnest ePaper we have is an amazing 0.3mm thick!!

Super Thin OLED Displays
OLED displays have been getting thinner over time, with many under 5mm. Our thinnest OLED display is as thin as our thinnest ePaper at an amazing 0.3mm!! For reference graphite in a mechanical pencil is often 0.7mm - more than twice as thick!

The Most Thin LCDs
Finding standard LCDs or TFTs that are smaller than 2mm remains difficult. We have a few thin LCDs and they're very popular! Probably not just because they're thin. Maybe it's because they are beautiful as well?
