Every time the price of the panel market fluctuates, it will naturally cause everyone to guess the price of the TV. The price is still the same. The innovation of panel technology will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the entire TV industry. After the development of LED TV has matured, for a long time, the QLED camp led by Samsung and the OLED camp led by LG are competing for the "future" of TV, but soon, new technology has attracted a lot of attention. One is Apple is preparing to use MiniLED, and the other is MicroLED, which claims to be better than OLED.
MicroLED, MiniLED, OLED, QLED: Who is the future of TV?
The concept of OLED is popularized earlier and is more mature than the other three technologies. OLED (Organic Light-EMitting Diode) is an organic light-emitting semiconductor. Its display principle is self-luminous, and each pixel can produce color and emit light at the same time. Because no backlight is required, the black level performs very well, and the organic materials make the panel shape more flexible. Many TV companies around the world including LG, Sony, Skyworth and others are sparing no effort to promote OLED TVs. Xiaomi TV, which has newly joined the camp, has also promoted everyone's discussion on OLED TVs. Although the OLED technology is relatively mature, the problems of screen burn-in, short life, and low yield rate have indeed become obstacles for more users to choose OLED.
The QLED that has been competing with OLED for the future of TV display panels is very similar in structure to OLED. The difference is that QLED uses quantum dot materials as diode luminescent materials. QLED technology was introduced by Sony in 2013. Soon after, Samsung began to sell its own QLED TV, and established cooperation with Sony, Hisense, and TCL. QLED and OLED and their similar propaganda terms triggered disputes between LG and Samsung in 2019. LG complained to the Korea Fair Trade Commission that Samsung’s so-called QLED TVs are not true QLEDs. The true QLED TVs use self-illumination Quantum dot LED, instead of covering quantum dot film on traditional LED TV. LG has indeed pointed out the facts of QLED. At present, the mainstream quantum dot TVs on the market all use the QD-LCD structure. The quantum dot film is used to convert the blue LED backlight to red and green to achieve high brightness and wide color gamut. The effect is essentially an improvement on traditional LCD display technology. It must be said that the real QLED with the advantages of strong contrast, energy saving, wide viewing angle and high color saturation is still in the laboratory research stage due to material and process problems.
MicroOLED are also benchmarked against OLED. Not only are there many similarities, but MicroLED also makes up for many of the OLED's own defects. MicroLED technology is LED miniaturization and matrix technology.In simple terms, it is to thin, miniaturize and array LED (light emitting diode) backlights, so that the LED unit is less than 50 microns, and each pixel can be realized separately like OLED. Addressing, driving light independently (self-lighting). LED itself is not a new technology, but how to miniaturize LEDs requires a wafer-level process level, and how to transfer miniature LEDs to the control circuit board is also a big difficulty.
MicroLED was created in 2000 by a research group at Texas Tech University. In 2012, the first Sony HD TV using MicroLED technology was unveiled. At CES 2018, Samsung showed the world’s first 146-inch Micro LED TV spliced from a time span. It is not difficult to see the difficulty of mass production of this technology, both the cost of materials and the accuracy of the welding technology. However, the reason why the industry still expects MicroLED is also quite simple. Compared with OLED, MicroLED is not only more energy-efficient, but also low power consumption, MicroLED can display higher brightness, and the display life is also longer than OLED, contrast, color gamut, flexible display, etc. The field also has comparable strength.
It is precisely because MicroLED is too "difficult to produce", so MiniLED will be proposed. MiniLED is proposed by Jingdian. It refers to sub-millimeter light-emitting diode technology. It is between traditional LED and MicroLED. It is a step-down version of MicroLED. The yield is higher than MicroLED in the manufacturing process, which can bring more accurate HDR to the LCD panel. Division, thickness also tends to OLED, with special-shaped cutting and other characteristics, and the price of the panel is only 60% to 80% of the OLED TV panel, and the power saving performance is much better than OLED. Looking at Apple's MiniLED plan next year, the mass production progress is also gradually on track. Compared with the generally higher-priced OLED TVs, MiniLED is expected to become the mainstream of future panels.
The TV industry currently looks a bit "stagnation" from technology to content. The release of an OELD TV by Xiaomi TV has attracted widespread attention from netizens. The future innovation in panel technology will inevitably bring about dramatic changes in the industry. These four Technology, who do you prefer?
