Because of numerous requests, the supply of AMOLED display even thinner because producers overwhelmed the screen height to serve the needs of these. To anticipate the shortage of supply, Taiwanese smart phone manufacturer, HTC, will switch to other technologies.
HTC plans to immediately replace the use of AMOLED display with Super LCD (SLCD). Several new mobile phone, including HTC Desire and Nexus One new output, will use this SLCD screen.
In quality, HTC is not inferior to ensure SLCD AMOLED, even claimed to have sharp resolution, high contrast, larger visual angle, and better power efficiency on the same screen size.
"Technology allows us SLCD produce goods more quickly to meet increasing demand," said Peter Chou, CEO of HTC, as reported by TGDaily, Monday (07/26/2010).
HTC announced plans this week after market research firm iSuppli warned that the supply of AMOLED LCD, which can be, inhibited Android curbing competition against Apple's iPhone. HTC and other mobile phone manufacturers that use Google's Android platform made many do use this type of screen. The output of Apple's iPhone uses AMLCD technology.
