- MicroLED screens are only expected to come to smartphones after 2033, the MicroLED Industry Association stated.
- The association expects the first wearables with the tech to arrive as soon as 2026, though.
MicroLED technology is the next big step for screens, and we’ve already seen the first microLED TVs on the market (albeit for $100,000 or more). Now, an industry association has revealed when it expects smartphones to offer this display tech, and it’s years away.
The official MicroLED Industry Association released a state-of-the-industry document that also includes a roadmap for the technology. It turns out that the association only expects preliminary R&D and pilot production of microLED screens for smartphones from 2030 to 2033.
