According to Money DJ, TrendForce today held a seminar on “Big Bang Tuo Technology Industry Forecast 2020”.

TrendForce predicts that next year (2020), driven by issues such as 5G and electric power, the high refresh rate panel will be a new highlight of the mobile phone market specification; and the Mini LED will boost the display industry upgrade, predicting that 2020 will be It is a year of the outbreak of Mini LED applications, and it is estimated that large-scale backlit displays such as TVs and monitors will be the first to be mass-produced.

TrendForce pointed out that the large-size panel market is at a low tide due to the sluggish demand and the overcapacity of the panel; the Korean panel factory has abandoned the TFT-LCD TV panel market and switched to more advanced OLED TV and QD-OLED TV development; Taiwan's panel makers have also continued to shift to more advanced product markets. Manufacturers in both regions are trying to slow down the pressure on China's panel makers in terms of scale and price. China's panel makers are expected to gradually acquire TFTs while continuing to expand production capacity. - The dominant position in the LCD market.

In the small size market, TrendForce pointed out that the AMOLED model enhances product value through the installation of the fingerprint recognition solution under the screen, establishes its position in the flagship market, squeezes some LTPS and turns it to the medium market; TrendForce also predicts that LCD can only be used in the future. Through price strategy and cost control, we will establish our own competitiveness as much as possible.

TrendForce also said that the Mini LED will be the driving force behind the display industry upgrade. Due to the high brightness of the Mini LED and the miniaturization of the arrangement pitch, it can be applied to the backlit display and the self-illuminating display, which will greatly improve the display's fineness and high contrast.

The technology difference between Mini LED display and traditional LED is not big. The only difference is that more Mini LED chips are used. Therefore, for LED packaging factories and module factories in the supply chain, only some equipments such as LEDs need to be reinvested. Handling transfer and inspection equipment, etc., as well as redesigning the driver IC and selecting the substrate and quickly connecting to the Mini LED.

TrendForce emphasizes that the introduction of Mini LEDs will improve the display performance of existing backlit displays (such as TV, laptop, monitor, tablet, car, VR, etc.), as well as self-illuminating indoor commercial displays, and enhance existing Show the value of the product.
