According to that, AMOLED is sported inside most of the high-end phones such as Samsung. Meanwhile, LCD is suitable to average and low-end handset. Now LCD&#8217;s\u00a0manufacturer &#8211; LG\u00a0Display Co., one of the world\u2019s biggest makers of display panels used in smartphones and televisions, seems to make a move in the right direction to invest in OLED display.<\/p>\n<p>So what is OLED display? And why is it so hot that everyone seems to be investing in these days?\u00a0OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) is a flat light emitting technology. When electrical current is applied, a bright light is emitted. Because OLEDs emit light they do not require a backlight, thus they are thinner and more efficient than LCD displays.\u00a0They can also be made flexible,\u00a0even rollable and transparent. If you use Apple Watch, you will experience marvellous\u00a0OLED, which is capable of producing\u00a0brilliant color and contrast.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/OLED-display-1.webp 646w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/OLED-display-1-300x169.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/OLED-display-1.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/OLED-display-1.jpg 646w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/OLED-display-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20441 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"OLED display\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>Although OLED display is\u00a0not new, such\u00a0technology has been used since 2001.
