Samsung Display Working on a 1000 ppi OLED for Smartphones
Samsung is developing a 1000 ppi OLED display that is more power efficient and cheaper to manufacture for introduction by 2024. In theory, a 1,000ppi display would be a great match for VR headsets, but Samsung hasn’t really shown much interest in this product category lately. Nevertheless, 1,000ppi is the level of pixel density that Samsung’s Gear VR division was aiming to achieve nearly four years ago, claiming that once VR screens exceed 1,000ppi, any issues related to motion sickness and a false sense of reality will be negated. However, since Samsung’s VR ambitions have apparently waned, it’s likely that this new TFT technology will be used for future smartphone displays. And to put things into perspective, the smartphone with the highest pixel density is the Sony Xperia 1 II with its 6.5-inch OLED that has a pixel density of 643ppi.
