We all know that the iPhone X, the least popular iPhone in Apple's history, uses an AMOLED screen. Although its sales are not good, it has led the industry to a step further in the popularization of OLED. In addition to mobile phones, many TV manufacturers have also strongly promoted OLED TVs in recent years, allowing this emerging display technology to develop rapidly.

According to market research firm Fuji Chimera Research, the global AMOLED panel market size will reach 4.61 trillion yen (about US$41.36 billion) in 2022, which will be three times that of 2016.

Currently, the AMOLED market is dominated by Korean manufacturers; while domestic companies such as AUO mainly ship wearable devices such as smart watches. Innolux's OLED screens will be shipped from the end of this year to next year, also mainly for wearable devices.

According to the report, OLED panels and LCD panels for mobile phones will face a crossover point in 2019, and the market size of OLED panels will reach US$26.3 billion by then, exceeding the LCD output value of US$21.7 billion.
