2020 OLED annual performance analysis
Total shipments of AMOLED in 2020 were aggregated to 575.78 million…
The mini-LED TV market in 2025 is the trend of the premium TV market
Products with more advanced LCDs appear. It is an LCD that has greatly improved brightness, HDR, and color reproducibility by adding QD film and mini-LED to BLU. The existing top-level LCD used a full array local dimming (FALD) BLU with a local dimming zone of about 300 to 500.
When the local dimming zone is increased to more than 3,000 by using mini-LED, the contrast ratio is significantly improved, and the halo effect is reduced compared to FALD BLU LCD TVs. In order to achieve the same performance as OLED, the local dimming zone must have as many pixels as the number of pixels, but due to the limitation of LED size reduction, mini-LED TVs to be sold this year will have a local dimming zone of 1,000-3,000 products.
OLED performance analysis in the first half of 2020
The cover window material of Samsung Electronics 'Galaxy Z Fold 2' which will be released in the second half of this year, is UTG like 'Galaxy Z Filp'. The reason why Samsung Electronics prefers UTG is analyzed for its sense of luxury, differentiation, and sensitivity for the touch pen expected to be applied in the future.
In 2021, the market for over 10 million foldable phones is expected to expand, and the main cover window material of Samsung's foldable phones will be UTG. To respond to this, Dowooinsys should increase their capacity.

Samsung's QNED, will make a sensation in the TV and display markets?
QNED (Quantum dot nanorod LED), which is known to be under development by Samsung, is becoming a hot issue in the display industry in 2020. With the emergence of micro LEDs, followed by CRTs, PDPs, LCDs, and OLEDs as TV displays, the industry is interested in whether QNED could be another new technology.
78.6 tons of OLED emitting material demand increased by 5.6% in 2020
According to the 2020 OLED emitting material report published by UBI Research, the demand for emitting materials in 2020 is 78.6 tons, which is 4.2 tons higher than last year's 74.4 tons. The material used for OLEDs for smartphones and mobile devices is 62.9 tons, and the OLED emitting material for TVs is expected to be 15.7 tons.
2020 OLED market change by coronavirus
According to UBI Research's report on changes in the OLED market caused by coronavirus, the forecast for the 2020 OLED modification market is $ 36.7 billion in sales and 612 million units. This is a decrease of 4.8% and 7.6%, respectively, from the expected sales of $ 38.5 billion and shipments of 6.6 million units at the beginning of the year.
Samsung Display QD-OLED investment timing forecast
Samsung's LCD business, which began in 1991, will be suspended in 2021. Samsung's LCD business is completely closed after a 30-year lifespan. Samsung foresaw the limitations of the LCD business 10 years ago and stopped investing in the 10G. Instead, Samsung Electronics has separated the LCD business to create a Samsung Display combined with Samsung SDI's OLED and has been preparing for a new display era.
