According to our Korean colleagues from the online daily TheElec, LG Display will supply White Oled TV panels to Samsung Electronics starting this month. Samsung Electronics is said to have ordered a small quantity of these panels in early June with the aim of proceeding with the final development of the first White Oled Samsung prototypes, a step prior to the marketing of a full-fledged series scheduled for next September or October.
200,000 to 300,000 White Oled LG Display panels delivered to Samsung in 2023…
Namely, at the request of Samsung Electronics, LG Display would have produced specific White Oled panels but it is not yet known how these differ from the specimens delivered to other LG Display customers (Hisense, Panasonic, Philips, LG Electronics, Sony …). In total, the supply of White Oled TV panels produced by LG Display should represent between 200,000 and 300,000 units, and between 1 million and 1.5 million in 2024 depending on the global economic situation. Figures that would raise Samsung Electronics to second place among LG Display customers, ahead of Sony. Other information provided by TheELec, Samsung wishes to receive from LG Display only White Oled TV panels produced in its Korean factory in Paju and not from its Guangzhou factory in China.
The Samsung Oled TV range should therefore, from the end of 2023, consist of 55'', 65'' and 77'' televisions based on QD Oled technology, and 77'' and 83'' televisions based on on the White Oled process.
