Samsung Display announced that it will start mass production of 31.5-inch UHD (3840x2160) resolution QD-OLED starting this month. This new product achieves the highest level of pixel density and UHD resolution among self-luminous displays.In order to develop this ultra-high-definition resolution display, Samsung Display applied advanced ultra-precision inkjet printing technology to the QD (quantum dot) light-emitting layer,And successfully increased the pixel density to 140PPI, which is equivalent to the pixel density of a 65-inch 8K TV currently on the market.
Since the viewing distance of monitors is usually closer than that of TVs, users are more sensitive to picture quality. Currently, self-illuminating 30-inch displays on the market generally use QHD (2560x1440) resolution, and consumers who like games and high-definition video content are more interested in UHD products.
In addition to UHD screens,Samsung Display also plans to launch a 27-inch QHD QD-OLED screen with the industry’s highest 360Hz refresh rate in 2024 to meet the needs of the rapidly growing gaming monitor market.
Industry forecasts show that as a self-luminous display that drives the development of the high-end display market, shipments in 2023 are expected to increase more than four times compared to last year, and are expected to reach approximately 600,000 units. Samsung Display plans to work with customers around the world and is expected to officially launch new ultra-high-definition, high-refresh-rate products from early 2024.
In addition, the company also plans to actively expand the high-end display market by launching a variety of product lines such as 27-inch, 31.5-inch, 34-inch, and 49-inch, and developing new customers.
