Apple to Begin Using MicroLED Display for Apple Watch as Early as Next Year [Report]

Apple will purportedly begin using MicroLED displays for the Apple Watch by as early as next year, reports UDN. Currently, the Apple Watch uses OLED displays made by LG.

Apple Watch actively introduces the new generation of Micro LED displays , and cooperates with two Taiwanese companies, namely, Yuchuang and Sic Bo. The micro LED chips are provided by Yuchuang, and Sic Bo is assembled into a display module. It will be launched as soon as next year, breaking the long-term monopoly of the Korean factory.


Previous reports have claimed that Apple is working on the development of MicroLED displays at a secret manufacturing facility in Santa Clara, California. MicroLED displays are much more difficult to produce than OLED displays but promise to be slimmer, brighter, and consume less power.

A report from April claimed that Foxconn is also working on the development of microLED technology in order to win display orders for Apple's next generation iPhones.
