Turn to the strategy of MiniLED by MicroLED, the entire LED industry, have always felt to long mass production technology and a step forward. Maybe a lot of people see is MicroLED far away from us, because we are doing MiniLED, but you see is LED online further.

Although MiniLED is considered to be a transitional product of MicroLED, but the online gentleman thinks MiniLED should be used as a new product to treat. First of all do not say MicroLED in the end can not mass production, said the current LCD and LED display, at least the demand for LED is still the biggest market in the display field, even if the OLED caused a great impact, but at least now and in the future 3-5 years, LCD still has a place, especially the continuous investment domestic large size LCD line under the situation of the backlight market still has great demand.

In addition, there are LED display is also speeding up to smaller size, while the MiniLED is for small spacing and small spacing between MicroLED, so if MiniLED continues to go down, there is still a strong market demand for support.

So no matter whether MicroLED production, for LED, Miniled is also a great opportunity.

But Samsung's participation, has a very important significance for the future development of small spacing. At the same time, Samsung planning 2018 LED TV, it will also open new opportunities for the future of small spacing LED.

03 / iPhone X drive 3D sensor, VCSEL high-speed growth of blue
