Samsung Semiconductor and Display officially announced that Samsung has launched large-size OLED screens that can be used in IT products, with 13.3″, 13.5″, 14″, 14.5″, 15.6″, 16″ and other different sizes. In addition, these OLED screens have been certified by Germany Rheinland (TUV) without stroboscopic, and they are officially certified as “eye protection displays”.
Friends who know the display screen may have heard strobe, which refers to TV, display screen, mobile phone shakes slightly due to unstable brightness. Although the strobe is not obvious, it will not affect the display effect of the screen too much, and it is difficult for the human eye to recognize it. However, watching a screen with stroboscopic flicker for a long time will still feel uncomfortable to the eyes, and even cause headaches and vision loss in severe cases.
Therefore, many monitors and mobile phone screens have successively introduced technologies such as DC dimming, the purpose is to reduce the stroboscopic flicker of the screen at low brightness and reduce the damage to the eyesight. Because the LCD screen has a backlight layer, DC dimming can be easily achieved. On the other hand, OLED screens do not have a backlight layer, and each pixel controls the light individually. The cost of global DC dimming is relatively high. Therefore, some manufacturers use PWM dimming with the second-best effect.
Previously, the laptops on the market basically used LCD screen panels, so everyone did not pay much attention to the stroboscopic and dimming issues. However, many newly launched notebook products this year have successively used OLED panels, such as the ASUS Wushuang series, Lenovo ThinkBook and so on. We all know the advantages of OLED, with brighter colors, higher contrast, and a clearer and more realistic picture quality. In the dark mode scene, it also has a better power-saving effect, which can prolong the battery life of the notebook.
OLED notebooks have begun to appear on the market, and people naturally prefer these new products with stronger performance, which will drive the entire notebook industry to develop in the direction of OLED screens. It is reported that Apple is also preparing for iPad and MacBook. In addition to bringing better display effects, the cost is also cheaper than the currently used Mini LEDs.
It can be seen that it has become a trend for OLED to enter notebooks and tablet computers. In the future, more and more large-screen devices will use OLED screens. Samsung, the world’s largest OLED panel supplier, launched a large-size OLED screen at this time, and successfully obtained the stroboscopic eye protection screen certification, which is also preparing for the follow-up. However, the performance of domestic OLED screens is actually not bad, and domestic OLED screens will definitely shine in the notebook market in the future.
