Samsung will start the production of 7th generation OLED displays soon
Samsung Display, the world’s largest smartphone OLED panel manufacturer with more than 95 percent market share, is looking to expand its market share even further. The company will reportedly start the production of its seventh-generation smartphone OLED panels soon, while competitors are still trying to focus on sixth-generation OLED display panels.
An analyst told The Investor that Samsung’s new A4 production line will start manufacturing seventh generation OLED panels for smartphones as early as Q2 next year. The company will reportedly add foldable OLEDs, chip-on-plastic OLEDs, and 4K (800 ppi) OLED panels in its arsenal to keep its dominating position for years to come.
“Its smaller rivals will be catching up with Samsung in production volume of sixth-generation OLED panels in the coming years. Samsung is likely to turn its eyes to the larger seventh-generation OLED panels for better productivity,” Yi Choong-hoon, CEO of display research firm UBI Research, said in a recent report.

Yet another reason not to pay £600 for their 264 ppi tablets. About time we start seeing some real progress there.
Samsung makes the best displays by far. Remember that most of iPads’ displays and also the ones for the iShit 8 are made by Samsung.
So no 4K Display in Note 8? And maybe not in S9 either.
So what?
Other than VR, is there any advantage to such a screen resolution on a 6 inch screen?
Hope there wont be screen burn anymore.
Go back to apple forum loser
sadly that will never go away, it is inherent to the way the screens work. Only LG Holds a patent to fix this issue..
I never see born in on my s7e
Queen of oled !
Who is the King?
SAMSUNG
