Samsung Aligns Display Business with Future Trends: Foldables, XR, and More
For the purpose of better addressing Apple’s foldable goods, Samsung Display reorganized its workforce and created a separate microdisplay team, especially for XR devices. The objective behind this is to seize control of emerging technology, such as microdisplays for XR gadgets and foldable goods, which is going to rule the next generation.
What’s the aim of the South Korean giant behind this move?
Foldable product development and foldable panel development are reported to be organized inside a development team of the small and medium-sized display division, where smartphone OLEDs and foldable panels are manufactured. The Strategic Marketing Office, which is now organized as a department, will be further reorganized by the big display division into a team-based organization and will be known as the Strategic Marketing Team.
The A (Apple) Business Team:
With a new organizational structure, Samsung Display is bolstering its A Business Team and concentrating on developing technologies that may enable it to offer foldable panels for potential iPad and iPhone models from Apple. After leading the planning team at the company headquarters, Choi Kwon-young, vice president of Samsung Display, was transferred to the A Business Team. To stop rivals from entering the market, it is anticipated that Creation Team A will handle the creation of foldable products and panels this time. Apple foldable devices, like the 20.25-inch model, are already being developed by Samsung and LG.
Samsung seems to have great plans for its XR device in the future
Through the acquisition of older technologies and a higher task transfer success rate, the Display Research Institute intends to augment its commercial contribution. The Microdisplay Team has reorganized itself to become an organization directly under the CEO, leaving behind its affiliation with the research institute. The goal of the change is to better prepare for the extended reality (XR) device market. All phases of the commercialization process are anticipated to be researched and developed by the Microdisplay team. Samsung Display initiated the ‘M Project’ to create microdisplays at the close of the previous year.
A ‘WOLED+CF’ method that applies color filters (CF) to white (W)-OLED and red (We plan to sequentially develop ‘RGB’ type OLEDos, which deposits R) green (G) and blue (B) subpixels adjacent to each other on the same layer is one of the innovations made by Samsung Display in the OLEDoS sector, which deposits organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) on silicon substrates. Long-term work also includes the creation of LEDoS, which creates light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on silicon substrates.

The first quarter of 2024 is already over; during this interval, Samsung has introduced several Galaxy smartphones of particular belonging, such as the flagship Galaxy S24 series, the Galaxy A55 and Galaxy A35, the mid-range ones, the Galaxy A15 and Galaxy F15, the budgetable ones, and many more. But the fact is, after being the latest smartphones, they have a lack of ‘charging speed.’
Undoubtedly, Samsung is leading the tech industry with its top-notch features, design, and larger batteries, as compared to other Android manufacturers, but despite all this, it has a massive lack of charging speed. Samsung usually attaches larger batteries to its Galaxy smartphones to enhance the users’ non-stop-using experience. But a larger battery isn’t worth it unless it has a good charging speed.
On the other hand, Chinese manufacturers are equipping their smartphones with charging speeds north of 100W, whereas 45W is the maximum speed you can get on Galaxy smartphones. However, even 45W charging is quite rare among Galaxy phones. Samsung has launched most of the Galaxy devices in the last couple of years, including the flagship with support for 25W.
Here we are making things easy for you if you are looking to buy a Galaxy smartphone that debuted in 2024 with the support of 45W charging speed by mentioning a list of devices:
- Galaxy S24 Ultra
- Galaxy S24+
- Galaxy F55
- Galaxy M55
- Galaxy C55
The list is quite short, even considering that the Galaxy F55, M55, and C55 are just rebranded variants of the same smartphone for different regions. Now Samsung is setting up to launch its next-generation foldable devices, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, in July, but it is yet to be confirmed whether these devices will get a boost in charging speeds from 25W or not.
The Korean brand – Samsung has recently announced its two mid-range Galaxy smartphones – Galaxy A55 5G and Galaxy A35 5G. A new benchmark listing has a spot for Samsung’s affordable smartphone, Galaxy35 5G.
