"Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold and Flip 7 Set to Pioneer Blue PHOLED Technology"
Samsung Display's mobile panels might transition to using blue PHOLED (Phosphorescent OLED) in the second half of 2025, replacing the current blue fluorescent materials used in their AMOLED displays. While initially predicted for mid-2024, the development of blue phosphorescent material seems to be facing challenges. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 foldable phones could potentially be the first to benefit from this technology, but durability concerns may prevent its mainstream adoption. Blue PHOLEDs offer higher luminous efficiency and reduced power consumption, but their lifespan is currently lower compared to blue fluorescent materials. Despite the challenges, Samsung Display is expected to continue developing blue PHOLEDs to become the first manufacturer capable of mass-producing AMOLED panels with blue phosphorescent pixels.
