Samsung is in no hurry to bring out its first commercial flexible
AMOLED displays, thanks largely to the fact traditional displays are
doing just fine.
Reports from Korean website ETNews indicate that Samsung has placed the bendy AMOLED screens on the back burner until next year.
Instead, the company apparently wants to focus on increasing flat display production.
Samsung
is seeking to increase its AMOLED production from 56,000 units per
month to a 64,000 unit per month yield to keep up with demand for
current smartphones like Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2.
To
meet that increase in production, some of the pilot lines manufacturing
flexible AMOLED displays have been converted to glass AMOLED lines,
slowing bendy AMOLED progress.
