Mini LED Backlit Displays to Bring in Business and Give OLEDs a Run for Their Money

According to the newest 2019 Mini LED  and HDR High-End Display Market Report by LEDinside , a division of  TrendForce , after 3 years of mini LED backlight technology development,  mini LEDs will finally make an official appearance on displays in 2019  and compete directly with OLEDs. Apple, with eyes set on the advantages  of mini LED technology for a while, is also eager to strike  collaborations with suppliers in Taiwan and Japan to introduce this  technology into desktop displays, notebooks and tablets.
 
 TrendForce explains that, in comparing the two, Mini LEDs possess a  local dimming function with a contrast effect similar to that of OLED  displays. On some product lines, costs for mini LED backlit displays may  even be lower than their OLED counterparts. For traditional LCD panel  manufacturers, this translates into an opportunity to re-upgrade product  specs and a chance to compete with OLED technology.
 
 “Costs ” to Become the Key to Backlit Mini LED Mass Production Feasibility
 
 Since mini LED backlight technology only differs from traditional ones  in its greater usage of mini LED chips, panel manufacturers only have to  redesign driver ICs, select substrates and reinvest in a few equipment,  such as those used in surface-mounting and equipment inspection. The  availability of existing panel production lines for use allow panel  manufacturers to undergo a painless, hassle-free upgrade.
 
 In contrast, the increased usage of LEDs will certainly raise costs for  traditional LCD panels. Finding a way to lower costs and narrow the gap  between mini LED backlit display and traditional LCD costs will be the  key to mini LED backlight prevalence.
 
 From a supply chain standpoint, Taiwan panel manufacturers are lagging  behind in OLED panel production capacity, and are thus the most  motivated to develop mini LED backlight technology solutions. AUO and  Innolux joined hands with their respective LED subsidiaries in  development: AUO with Lextar, and Innolux with AOT, Epileds and other  companies as main collaborators. Through these partnerships, they hope  to keep intact the competitive edge their LCD products previously  possessed. Furthermore, Taiwanese LED giant Epistar, who focuses on  advanced displays and backlight applications, is providing products  custom made for customers and also possesses the ability to modify its  own facilities.
 
 China's vendors have also been actively developing micro LED and mini  LED technologies. Sanan, for example, has established the first  epitaxial wafer and chip production lines for micro LEDs in 1Q19, and  has already finished developing a micro LED product that uses  20-micrometer chips. Sanan has joined forces with Samsung, becoming  Samsung's go-to supplier for mini LEDs. Chinese panel supplier BOE has  also declared news of forming a joint venture with American company  Rohinni for the purpose of producing micro and mini LEDs solutions for  display backlight sources; their main aim is to ramp up transfer speed,  precision and yield of LEDs to substrates and create cost-competitive  products.
