OLED-info.com is quoting iSuppli on some news regarding a potential boom of OLED screens in mobile devices…
Apparently iSuppli says that OLED displays for mobile devices are going to rise from 22m to 178m units, between 2009-2015 – that’s quite a growth! However, in a contrasting statement, OLEDs will still only account for 6% of the market in 2013.
If you are wondering what the average OLED screen costs, well apparently the 2.6″ OLED in the N86 cost $7.05 – whereas the equivalent LCD would have cost $6.50. That said, shaving even cents off the BoM (bill of materials) for a device is important when you are shipping millions of units – so perhaps there’s room for that delta to come down slightly, and add another catalyst to this potential sales growth we are expecting.
