Samsung's Apple took the lead in teaming OLED screens into future mobile phone standard?

In 2017, both Samsung and Apple released the flagship mobile phone of the year. The OLED full screen used by Note 8 and iPhone X has become a hot spot for consumers and the industry. This is also the first time in 10 years Apple's mobile phone did not use the LCD screen, choose the OLED screen supplied by Samsung, for smart phones, especially the domestic smart phone industry, with the significance of the wind vane.

OLEDs are organic light-emitting diodes. The display made of it is very thin, very light, and flexible. This is not what the liquid crystal display can do. Since the material utilizes a naturally emitted light source, the OLED screen can exhibit near-natural colors. It also has obvious advantages in terms of contrast, outdoor visibility, viewing angle, and so on. Utilizing the material advantages of OLED, new technologies such as flexible screens, naked-eye 3D screens, and in-screen fingerprint recognition can be implemented on mobile phones. AMOLED is a kind of OLED. At present, AMOLED flexible display has been used in high-end mobile phones.

Samsung has been in the leading position in the display industry for more than ten years, and has already achieved mass production of OLED screens. However, the huge market demand has attracted BOE, China Star Optoelectronics, Hehui Optoelectronics, Visionox and other Chinese display panel makers. In December last year, Hefei Photovoltaic launched its sixth-generation OLED production line in Shanghai. The industry estimates that domestic manufacturers have invested hundreds of billions of yuan in the development and production of OLEDs. The new production capacity is expected to stabilize shipments by around 2020.

There is no doubt that the successful application of Samsung on small and medium sized OLED screens has brought about the development of this technology, and has also played a role in promoting the display industry in China. However, the Chinese display industry should advance with the advancement of technology in small-sized AMOLED products. Seize great development opportunities.

However, although the current domestic manufacturers have great investment, it is relatively difficult from a technical point of view. Samsung's R&D of OLED screens was previously evaluated by the Japanese industry as "Samsung's mass production of OLED screens is equivalent to climbing Mount Fuji." In terms of small and medium sized OLEDs, Samsung insisted on developing for more than 10 years. It took at least four or five years to increase the yield, and Chinese manufacturers must be fully prepared.
