What They Say
The Elec reported that Oppo would release a folding smartphone with a 7.1″ UTG-based 120Hz LTPO OLED display from Samsung Display. The Find N would have a 5.45″ inch OLED from BOE, the site said.
The site also said that the Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold 2 will be using Samsung Display’s 8.01″ OLED panel with UTG as well as CSOT’s 6.52″ panel for the external screen. That is a change from two CSOT panels in the Mi Mix Fold. Vivo is also expected to use SDC and BOE panels.
What We Think
The expected news here is the use of UTG rather than polyimide which the firms had previously used. UTG had been exclusively available to Samsung Electronics smartphones, but SDC had planned to widen its customer base for UTG-based displays. (BR)
