It is not a surprise. LG does not have the capacity for more small OLED screens, it is why the G3 currently has a LCD. LG is pouring hundreds of millions into large OLED display fab plants with a huge one coming online in a month or so and another early next year, but has not put nearly as much into building small screen oled plants. Perhaps that's because LG has never been as successful as Samsung with phones so they have not needed to, but that's just a guess. LG has been putting a lot of money into flexible oled screen fabrication but so far has not found a huge market for the products.
