This is much more important improvement than Tandem OLED. Although I dont think I could see that on an iPhone before 2030 judging from how slow Apple adopt technology.
- tiffanyh 2y ago> how slow Apple adopt technology. Aren’t they only slow to adopt new display technology. Everything else they either lead or are on par with, no? Biometrics, Spatial Audio, health sensors, SOS phone calls, etc.
- repiret 2y agoApple was also first to bring multitouch and high DPI displays to consumers. They were slow with OLED, and they have also been slow with each new generation of cell phone radio standards.
- MBCook 2y agoThe early ones likely weren’t up to their quality standards. Then at some point they may have decided to hold it for the X redesign. The main issue with cell phone standards appears to be power. Apple doesn’t like using radios that use up so much power the user has to turn them on and off to manage things the way early 4G or 5G android phones were set up. They seem to prefer to wait until a lower power version is available that they can leave on all the time without significant issue.
- petepete 2y ago> first to bring multitouch and high DPI displays to consumers If you discount the LG Prada, then yeah.
- Toutouxc 2y agoThat one was capacitive, but didn’t do multitouch. So no pinch to zoom, which was one of the most wow things the first iPhone did.
- kurthr 2y agoAgree, and once you can lithographically pattern QD in for Red/Green it'll just be one layer of Blue PHOLED underneath. Cheaper and matched wear-out so burn-in is less visible. These aren't huge changes, but the steady pace of improvements may just make the other technologies irrelevant in mobile devices. TVs and wearables still might go to microLEDs, but only if the costs can come down.
- ksec 2y agoSamsung originally toyed with this idea but with Nanorods. Now that is abandoned for unknown reasons. ( Likely cost ). Blue PHOLED also has life time issues. And we will need may be another 5 years of R&D along with 3 years to market. Definitely post 2030.
