Top 10 Players Dominating the OLED Micro Display Market

OLED Micro display is a small light-emitting diode with high-quality resolution. Owing to its key features, such as high contrast and resolution, immediate response time, and small size, it is feasible for companies to employ this in technologies, including Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) headsets, Camera displays, and others. The OLED Micro Display Market is growing rapidly due to its increasing demand for enhanced user experience.

 

This blog mentions the top 10 key players in the OLED Micro display market, which are dominating the industry.

1. Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation

Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation's (SSS) OLED Micro displays have combined rich OLED and backplane technologies to achieve high image quality, resolution, contrast ratio, and fast response. The OLED Micro displays play a key role in the application of EVFs (electronic viewfinders) for cameras. Moreover, SSS also offers a substantial lineup with high luminance, which enhances the user experience in applications, such as AR/VR headsets.

In addition, with the feature of ultra-high resolution of about 4,000 pixels per inch, thanks to high-mobility monocrystalline silicon wafers as the backplane, OLED Micro Displays are being increasingly adopted for applications that need ultra-compact and ultra-high-resolution.

2. LG Display Co. Ltd

LG Display, based in Korea, is one of the leading OLED TV and monitor panel producers in the world. The company also manufactures flexible OLEDs for wearables, tablets, and smartphones. Moreover, LG Display offers automotive, transparent  OLED displays. For instance, LG Display announced plans to invest 1.26 trillion Won (USD 925 million) to develop advanced OLED technologies. The funds will be invested over 2 years (until June 30, 2027). The investment was approved at LGD's board meeting and has been announced in a regulatory filing.

3. Samsung Display

Samsung’s OLED displays are leading the global micro display market using technologies including clear image quality, slim design, and low power consumption. In addition, Samsung OLED boasts excellent color reproducibility, owing to its self-luminous properties. Moreover, the high brightness and low reflectance allow for a good quality image even under sunlight, enhancing the user experience for watching content both indoors and outdoors.

For instance, OLED for Samsung smartphones has obtained the “Seamless Display” certification by recording  “Blur Length” and “Motion Picture Response Time (MPRT)” which is by far the company’s highest certification level.

4. BOE Technology Group Co, Ltd
