Japan Display (JDI) plans to start producing medium-sized OLED displays, to be used in tablets and laptops. The company hopes to start producing the first panels (which will be around 14-inch in size) by 2025.

Up until now, JDI focused on the production of wearable OLED displays, selling its panels for Apple's smartwatches since 2019. The company's production volume was limited, and so was its technology capabilities to increase production panel sizes. It will be interesting to see whether JDI hopes to also supply its future laptop/tablet panels to Apple.

That's a great question. eLEAP's main performance advantage is the high aperture ratio. I would assume it's quite compatible with a tandem architecture. It's likely that if everything works as JDI says it does, an eLEAP display will be easier and cheaper to produced compared to a tandem device.
It seems the eLEAP technology performances (efficiency, lifetime improvement) are close to the tandem-stack performances ?
What are the trade-offs of each one ?
Would it be possible to combine them both, by doing an eLeap tandem-stack to even further increase efficiency and lifetime improvement ?
