For a long time, OLED display supply has been
exclusive to Samsung Electronics. Some time ago, we reported that BOE’s Chengdu
factory is set for a mass production of the 6th generation flexible AMOLED
screens. Now, BOE’s latest OLED display prototype has been spotted online. This
is a time where most smartphone manufacturers want a switch to OLED displays
and it appears that BOE came up with its product at the right time.
There are already rumors that the Chinese company is
targetting a deal with Apple which is Samsung’s major customer for OLED
display. This deal will not be difficult to seal because there is no doubt that
Apple will not like to deal with its arch-rival. However, it is not as simple
as it sounds.
BOE’s new display is quite identical to the iPhone
X’s. While we can not be sure of its quality, BOE is certainly trying to prove
a point that it can produce what Samsung can or even better. The leaked AMOLED
display is a 6.18-inch display with 2992 x 1440 pixel resolution. It has a PPI
of 537 and a screen brightness of 390 nits. Naturally, BOE’s display will be
expected to be cheaper than Samsung’s and this will obviously give more Chinese
manufacturers the chance to use AMOLED display.
