Samsung, to open market for UHD panel for mobile device
Phonearena, a dedicated website providing smartphone related information, reported that Samsung will start mass production of 5.9-inch UHD Super AMOLED above 700ppi in August next year.
The source of this news is not clear but at the last Analyst Days event, Samsung said that it is expected to produce UHD 2160×3840 AMOLED display in 2015. In addition, they also hinted the UHD display for a smartphone device through the roadmap presented at the workshop held last January using the word ‘diamond pixel’. This is closer to the PenTile method than the RGB stripe method.
They also mentioned 600ppi in the interview with LG Display in May of last year. And even added that the 700ppi panel for a smartphone device is eminent and Samsung’s effort for high picture quality is not surprising. It was reported that besides Samsung and LG, Sharp is recently working on 4K display for a mobile device which comes in as 5.5-6 inches.
It was measured that the UHD picture quality will be 746ppi for 5.9-inch panel. If it is intended for August of next year, the announcement is expected to be at IFA 2015, equipped in the Note 5.
