It can be integrated with multiple features such as under-display fingerprint recognition, under-display camera, and biometrics. Hence, opening up a whole new world of flexible displays.

BOE revealed that the new f-OLED displays will be supplied exclusively to ASUS for the ZenBook 17-Fold OLED laptop launching later this year. BOE also won the award for Best Technology Demonstration for its 17.3-in. foldable OLED display.

Earlier this week, BOE announced that its 6th generation of flexible AMOLED production line has just entered mass production. The site for the advanced display technology facility is situated in the southwestern city of Chongqing, China.

According to a PanDaily report, the known Chinese display maker is planning on expanding its flexible displays portfolio. The cutting edge production line will join other manufacturing sites in Chengdu and Mianyang. During the mass production ceremony, BOE President, Liu Xiaodong stated that “In the current information and digital age, new application markets such as smart mobile terminals, smart wearable devices, and smart connected cars are showing explosive growth trends. This is increasing the demand for high end display technologies such as flexible displays.”

As of right now, the company already has 6 key projects operating in Chongqing, with the latest 6th generation flexible AMOLED production line being one of them. It even has its 8.5 generation of TFT LCD panel line and the BOE Chongqing Smart System Innovation Center in the region as well. All of these facilities combined are estimated to include around 86 billion Yuan (roughly 13.5 billion US Dollars) in terms of investment.

Furthermore, the latest 6th gen flexible AMOLED production line covers a massive area of 970,000 square meters. This facility is also independently designed and developed by BOE, with the panels being produced set to target small and medium sized high end display markets. In other words, we can expect to see the new flexible panels in a number of new consumer electronic products sometime next year.

China’s BOE Display is renowned worldwide for the supply of LCD panels for phone manufacturers. The company used to rank behind LG in this aspect of LCD panel shipments but last year, it beat LG to emerge as the world’s largest LCD manufacturer. That is most likely because LG has shifted its focus to OLED display panels. BOE is also making inroads into the AMOLED market. The company first showed off its flexible AMOLED panels in 2017. Since then, it had commenced mass production. The latest report by the company on its investors’ platform shows that overall flexible AMOLED shipments continued to increase. The company disclosed it shipped an estimated 40 million units in the first three quarters of 2021, that is Q1, Q2, and Q3. This result shows the company has continued to maintain substantial year-on-year growth.

At the same time, BOE also disclosed that it has supplied many of the top electronics companies with flexible AMOLED panels. It is also looking to expand its brand customers to more product series. In the future, with the increase in customer demand and the smooth climb of the flexible AMOLED production line, product shipments are expected to continue to grow rapidly.
