Are you ready for cheap OLED from China?

Isn't all this shit automated?
Why can't they make these factories in the US or EU?
OLED is shit cause of burn in.
MicroLED will fix this shit.
Environmental laws, NIMBY, and those pesky human rights.
This. Fuck humans, they ruin everything.
Why would they need humans if it's all automated?
Also Korea/JP probably have environmental laws on par with the west so...
will microLED have good black levels too?
yes, it will cook your food for you as well
I'll stick with a gas stove
Which is perfect for Apple since this is yet another planned obsolescence step.
Recycle your methane.
When Kodak died they sold the patents to LG less than their value, China can spin up a factory cheaply because they openly cheat patent holders on domestic production and they have spies at all levels in every major company in South Korea, by comparison the Japanese tech compaines were/are alot better at keeping industrial secrets from the chinks and now you are seeing a wholesale transfer from Korea to China.
>cheap
thx Trump
Iphones.
Who Cares
They are barely able to make such tiny oled screens. Wake me up when I can buy a 24”+ with no burnin issues for a reasonable price
Don't care about muh burn in if panels are cheap enough I'll get a bunch of 3x" ones
that is probably what's driving Chinas technology boom in the last couple years, it's well known Korea leases/buys all their tech from abroad (U.S. and Japan primarily) and from there it would quickly find it's way to China through espionage and backroom deals
Patents, and health laws stop you.
Humans are versatile machines that can do a few neat things, but are expensive. I doubt there are a whole of industries that are 100% lights out as well.
>cheap
Only if you don't live in America though.
Because Corning's a piece of shit company and so are its contract manufacturers
allways one burn in shill per OLED thread..
makes me wonder
is burn-in the 2018 equivalent of yesteryear's 'SSDs are unreliable'? As in, an initially legitimate problem that was ironed out pretty quickly to the point of easily being superior to other options, but repeated endlessly?
Genuine question, my Vita's screen is the only OLED I own and that thing is slightly fucked up but I got it used and it's like 5 years old
That's why they literally jumped to oled.
No, wait...
Europe is much further ahead in fully automated manufacturing.
It is a serious threat to China actually.
One reason to put this in China is because the iPhones are also made in China.
So this way you don't have to ship the screens for final assembly.
But if Europe can produce cheaper they will make them here instead.
then why are apple going so hard on microled?
>Europe is much further ahead in fully automated manufacturing.
lol
Butthurt American who can't keep up with modern automation detected.
Go look for a job as a coal miner.
I can't wait for cycle of Apple using custom screens vs shitty IPS by the rest to continue. Apple truly needs to upgrade macs to MicroLED to keep shitting on competition (because it's one of the few things macs are still good at).
US manufacturing is going to overtake China soon.
If the assembly is fully automated, why is it still in China? If a team of Chinese workers need to run to resolve automation alarms every 5 minutes then that is not "fully automated".
Samsung stopped investing in that technology for a good reason.
OLED has a extremely short lifetime, their stock is full to the roof with that shit and nobody is buying it
LED video is the future
china has better feng shui
I'd rather have them produce a eink/epaper monitor with display.
>inb4 muh patents
As if that's ever stopped the chinks before...
>25% tariff on all electronic components
>cheap
no, OLED can still get fucked if you use it slightly wrong
meanwhile my old monitor that I don't even know if it's TN or IPS from 8 years ago is as good as new
OLED is an inherently flawed technology built on the core belief of planned obsolescence. You can fuck right off back to Korea you LG/Samsung shill.
Requires large numbers of smart experienced automation engineers, with maths skills and squinty eyes
The money they save using slave labor wages for everything a human touches is what makes factories in China profitable. Plus the whole thing of not having to care about environmental regulations and associated costs.
Did they steal Canon Tokki tech?
>OLED
Who cares? Cheap Chinese DDR4 when?
Q4
Merck auctioned off their OLED IP position at junk prices, and China picked it up. Reason being OLED display patents are very old. Last-straw patent derivatives and extensions are expiring over the next 2 years, easily inside factory development times.
Why cant the US make displays?
Building the factory is cheaper, there are few regulations, and it's cheaper to hire what little staff they need to oversee the place.
Because white people are niggers
>Korea/JP probably have environmental laws on par with the west
not really, ROK still has pretty backwater environmental laws (at least in terms of observance) and JP did not have strong environmental laws during their tech manufacturing peak. Mercury poisoning was a relatively common affliction until recently.
OLED is transitory anyway, they would be better of waiting until MicroLED is perfected and stealing that instead.
Right on and look at their response to many aspects of Fukushima.
Burn in is not fixed. There are methods of reducing it but this alters the displayed picture. Not a desirable trait for accurate picture reproduction.
Sure it's fine for your shitty 50" LG TV which is already mangling the picture anyway but there is a reason why Sony's OLED PVMs don't feature such algorithms.
>implying there are white people in the US
