According to the latest industry news, Samsung Display has managed to increase its A6 8.6-Gen IT OLED line yields to over 90%, with parts of the process achieving yields of over 95%. These are commercial-level yields, and Samsung is ramping up production at the new fab, and will begin full-scale production next month.
A couple of months ago we reported that Samsung Display may be delaying the A6 ramp up, following some technical challenges - and demand concerns. But it appears as if this is not the case, and Samsung is actually right on schedule.
While the A6 total capacity will reach 15,000 monthly substrates, at this first phase, the company will be ramping up half of that. According to what we know, the first products out of the new line will be laptop AMOLED panels that will go to Apple - that signed an exclusive supply agreement with Samsung Display to produce touch AMOLED displays for its upcoming 2026 MacBook Pro laptops (both 14-inch and 16-inch models).
