EverDisplay, to become the first Chinese company to mass produce AMOLED

EverDisplay (EDO) began the pilot production of 5.6 inch FHD AMOLED panel in October. The FHD AMOLED (1920 x 1080) panel that EverDisplay began to trial produce is a model for the 4G flagship phone using LTPS TFT with the resolution of 394ppi. The thickness and weight is 0.66mm and 12.9g respectively.

Already in the second quarter of 2014, EverDisplay was seeking customers as they succeeded in producing the 5 inch, 5.5 inch, and 6 inch HD panels. At the conference held at Shenzhen in September, they announced the success of producing the 5.6 inch FHD AMOLED panel for the first time and unveiled the panel at the same time. In addition, the 5.6 inch and 1.63 inch AMOLED panels for the wearable device were presented simultaneously.

The 1.63 inch AMOLED panel is 31.28mm x 34.78mm with the resolution of 320 x 320, 277ppi. The feature of the AMOLED panel for the wearable device that the EverDisplay revealed is that it has the same size and resolution with the Galaxy Gear 2 released by Samsung Electronics early in 2014.

EverDisplay aims to succeed in mass-producing the HD AMOLED panel in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the FHD AMOLED panel in February of 2015. If EverDisplay starts to mass produce in the fourth quarter of 2014, they will be the first Chinese Display company to implement the business. And this first step of the Chinese company is not insignificant in the OLED industry which is led primarily by the Korean companies.

Established in Shanghai on October 2012, EverDisplay focuses on the production of small and medium sized AMOLED and it holds 4.5G LTPS TFT line at present.
