Samsung advances OLED technology with 90% yield for upcoming MacBook displays
Samsung Display is making a new type of OLED screen for laptops. These screens, Gen 8.6 OLED, will be used in future laptops, including new MacBook Pro models.
Right now, Samsung Display is using only one production line. This line can make about 7,500 glass sheets per month, even though its full capacity is planned at 15,000. The company has another same line, but it is not running yet. If more customers want OLED laptops, Samsung may start the second line too.
The company is doing very well in making good-quality screens. More than 90% of the screens made are working properly, as per TheElec report. In some steps of production, the success rate is even around 95%. This is very good because making big laptop OLED screens is difficult. They must be bright, clear, and last a long time without damage.

Samsung Display is expected to start sending these screens soon. These screens will likely be used in new MacBook Pro laptops made by Apple. It is expected that about 2 million screens may be supplied this year if everything goes well.
At the same time, other companies are also trying to enter this market. BOE Technology Group is also making similar OLED screens. It plans to supply them to laptop companies like ASUS and Acer. But BOE is still working on improving quality, so it cannot produce large amounts yet.
Samsung Display wants to get more customers and grow its business. If OLED laptops sell well, the company will increase production and may start its second line. Stay tuned for more information.
