According to a report from Korea Samsung Display aims to increase its small-sized and mid-sized AMOLED panels production in 2025 by 10.25% compared to its 2024 production (or 475 million panels up from 432 million panels).
Of course SDC's production plans depend on market demand, but it seems as if the company believes the OLED market is set to grow or that the company aims to grab a larger share of the market. SDC mostly aims to increase production of IT panels (laptops and tablet displays) and foldable smartphone OLED panels.
Samsung Display's smartphone OLED panel sales is stagnating - it sees an increase in sales for low-end models, but high-end panel sales are not increasing. SDC aims to actively increase sales of OLED tablet panels, believing that table producers will shift from LCD to OLED displays.
Samsung currently produces IT displays at its 6-Gen OLED lines. In 2026, it will start producing panels in its new 8.6-Gen line, which will enable higher capacities and low cost production.
