It seems like the the history of using AMOLED screens for smartphone was started by Samsung, especially when they decided to equip their high-end machines with this kind of display. Many brands such as Motorola, Nokia, and Blackberry also have many devices coming with AMOLED. How about Chinese smartphones?

Actually, we have just seen the Meizu MX5 sporting AMOLED panel recently. We thought that might be because most Chinese companies do not like it. However, perhaps we have to change our mind since the IHS Technology Research Director, Kevin Wang, has claimed that more different manufacturers will consider AMOLED for smartphones next year.

Firstly, it is reported that Apple can use AMOLED tech for their smartphones and/or tablets in 2016, but the panels probably will not come from Samsung. Secondly, we have Huawei has already begun applying AMOLED displays to their products. Furthermore, one of the well-known brands in China – Xiaomi, is getting ready to choose AMOLED for their handsets. So, it seems like the AMOLED history will have more names from various, big smartphone firms in 2016.

But, that could be the story for the next year. In this half of 2015, though we have many flagships on the way like Xiaomi Mi5, Apple iPhone 6S, etc., they are not likely to come with AMOLED, based on the rumors and teasers released on the internet. Hopefully, we will soon see this awesome kind of display more often on the mobile market!

NOTE: AMOLED stands for Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode, a kind of display tech used for mobile phones and televisions. It has faster pixel switching response time and consumes significantly less power.[tribulant_slideshow post_id=”8906″]
