The Elec reported that LG has been testing The deposition technology for 8.5-generation OLED panels since Last December, in preparation for future use in Apple's MacBook and iPad.
8,5-genli substrat hozirgi 6GEN-dan ancha katta, shuning uchun hatto MacBook ekrani o'lchamidagi panellarni ham tejamkorroq kesish mumkin. The Elec nashrining yozishicha, OLED panelli birinchi MacBook 2025 yilga mo‘ljallangan. LG ham birinchi OLED iPad uchun panellarni yetkazib beradi, biroq bu kichikroq panellar joriy 6-AVLODda onlayn tarzda ishlab chiqariladi. OLED iPad bozorga ertaroq chiqadi. OLED MacBook-ga qaraganda.
In addition, Apple is reportedly keen on using dual-layer OLED panels for future ipads and macBooks, as deposited dual-layer OLeds can provide screens with up to 10 years of life, and are much better than the single-layer OLeds currently used in phones, tablets, and other devices. The energy efficiency of two-layer OLeds could increase by 30 percent . LG was an early adopter of dual-layer OLED screen technology and is already supplying dual-layer OLED panels to the automotive industry. People don't change their cars nearly as often as they do their phones, computers or tablets, so double-layer OLeds are necessary.
In addition to LG, Samsung is also known to be working on 8.5-generation substrates, and may be able to get 8.5-generation OLED panels to market sooner than LG, since Samsung will be able to test them on a large scale with its own extensive product line. Samsung, however, is still developing its own dual-layer OLED technology, and LG's 8.5-generation line test could be completed as soon as this year, so LG could steal orders for OLED screens for Apple's larger devices, just as Samsung currently accounts for the bulk of orders for OLED iphones.
