> Goes over it in more depth. It does not. You can see in that thread, I had asked there as well and the throwaway account never responded to me. I'm pretty sure it is fake as that narrative describes things like "strongarms the display manufacturers and the users of their displays" which would cause uproar in the display industry and all of us would have heard of it. > Why do you think e-ink displays are so much more expensive than equivalent LCD/OLD displays? Volume. Volume. Volume. The typical MOQ for an LCD order would be in the tens of millions of units per quarter. Even the highest volume E Ink panel presumably the one in Kindle, would be at best several million a year. > Technology wise they're very similar No, they are not. Electrophoretic displays are very different than LCDs which are again very different than OLED. > enough e-ink displays have been shipped that we should have started to see diminishing returns on the economics of scale. In order to reach lower prices, you have to reach higher volumes so that you get closer to the bare materials cost. If you're only selling a few million displays per year, you'll never achieve sufficient volume to justify building a fully custom production line in order to reach the asymptote of materials cost.
