What is POLED display? Structure and characteristics of POLED screen

We are familiar with screen types such as: LED, OLED or AMOLED on phones, tablets, laptops, etc. However, have you ever heard of POLED screens, if not, then with Chuyendoi .top learn about this screen through the article!

Learn about POLED screens

P-OLED or POLED stands for Plastic OLED, a special form of OLED technology. POLED screens use plastic panels instead of glass of conventional OLED screen models.

POLEDs are still lit like other OLED screens with organic light-emitting diodes, tiny components that light up when an electric current is passed through them. This screen technology is researched and manufactured by LG.

Structure of the P-OLED . screen

In conventional OLED screen structure, the panel used is TFT made of glass material. As for the POLED screen, the Polyamide plastic panel also includes pixels and a reflective layer like a regular OLED screen. However, it will optimize thinness and better impact resistance .

Features of POLED screen

Advantage:

• P-OLED screen uses glass so it can be bent, folded or rolled, more durable without breaking.
• Great viewing angle.
• Because of the use of plastic, the manufacturer can easily laminate it, using less raw materials than other panels.
• Deep blacks and excellent contrast ratio, suitable for HDR.

Defect:

• Manufacturing techniques are more difficult and expensive, with unoptimized productivity.
• The plastic base plate can’t be as good as glass because glass has better optical properties.
• Plastic surfaces are more easily scratched than glass.

What is the difference between P-OLED screen and AMOLED screen?

POLED (LG house) or AMOLED (Samsung house) are both terms referring to the improved technology of OLED screens. However, they still have the following differences:

P-OLED	AMOLED
Thickness	Thinner	Thicker due to extra layer of TFTs
Color	Deeper blacks due to less reflective plastic than glass	Better Contrast
Ability to bend	P-OLED bendable	Regular AMOLED will not bend (except in the case of using Eco²OLED technology)

What devices does the P-OLED display support?

Apple Watch

The screen on the Apple Watch is a curved OLED screen, most of which is manufactured and supplied by LG distributors.

Although it is not mentioned as a P-OLED screen on the product information of Apple Watch, but with manufacturing technology, bendability and amazing thinness, it is a P-OLED screen.

Phone

Previously, P-OLED screens were used on LG flagship models and on Google Pixel 2. It is expected that in the future, P-OLED screens will be used on folding phones.

In-car monitor

POLED screens are also commonly used in the car market when accounting for 25.6% of the market share. The reason for this widespread use is that they are fitted on high-end car models as display screens.

In addition, the POLED display is also TUV Rheinland Eye Comfort Display certified for cars. This is a globally recognized certification for low-blue light, flicker-free and non-irritating displays that provide absolute eye protection.
