BOE is accelerating its B16 8.6-Gen IT AMOLED fab in Chengdu, and according to the latest updates from Korea, the company will begin mass production by the end of this month (May 2026).

BOE's first products out of this new line will be 14-inch laptop OLED panels, and it will supply the first batch to ASUS and Acer (this was already reported last year). It is likely that BOE will take time to fully ramp up the new production line, but the first commercial production is an important step. BOE originally planned to begin production towards the end of 2026, but it has managed to accelerate and begin production sooner.
In December 2025, BOE officially announced that it has lit up its 8.6-Gen AMOLED production line in Chengdu, five months ahead of schedule, and indeed now it is progressing further. The company shipped 150 million AMOLED panels in 2025, and recently updated on its roadmap, demand and financials. BOE is also said to begin pilot WOLED monitor panel production soon.
