What is AMOLED?

The full name of AMOLED in English is Active-Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode.

AMOLED technology is based on actively emitting organic light emitters, i.e. thousands of organic light sources that emit only three primary colours of light are placed on the substrate of the screen, and these emit red, green or blue light when a voltage is applied. These emit red, green or blue light when a voltage is applied. The AMOLEDs emit various colours by adjusting the ratio of the three primary colours of light on the substrate.

The Advantages of AMOLED：

Wide Color Gamut

    The advantage of a wide color gamut is that the colors displayed on the screen look more diverse, and more real colors can be restored. More importantly, the contrast can be effectively improved, and shadows closer to the black can be seen.

    In traditional Chinese culture, the five colors of "blue, yellow, red, white and black" are called positive colors, which represent orthodoxy and dignity. This is also what we often say about the five positive colors. Thanks to its super color gamut display capability, AMOLED technology can perfectly present these five colors with Chinese characteristics. For example, the performance of yellow, which represents sunlight, and cyan, which is between blue and green, represent the color of growth of all things, are very satisfactory.

Ultra-Thin Design

    AMOLED displays are thinner than LCD displays, which contain a backlight, colour filter, backlight module and liquid crystal material, whereas AMOLEDs do not require these components due to their self-emitting body principle. The integrated touch technology also makes AMOLED displays thinner and lighter.

Outdoor Readability of AMOLED Displays

    It is not impossible to read maps and addresses in bright light on a mobile phone. Outdoor readability is directly proportional to colour X brightness, and OLEDs are 1.7 times brighter than LCDs. the good outdoor readability of AMOLED displays allows colours to be clearly rendered even in bright sunlight, providing a better viewing angle for outdoor reading.

AMOLED Are More Energy Efficient

    Each pixel of an AMOLED display can be controlled independently, eliminating the need for constant backlighting. When browsing a web page with a white background, most of the pixels need to be 100% bright. On the other hand, when playing a video with a darker scene, the pixels emit less light. Each pixel of the AMOLED display can control its own brightness independently, which means that 100% brightness emission is not required, thus saving energy consumption of the device. Even watching videos or enjoying multimedia will not take a huge drain on battery life.

AMOLED vs LCD：

    In terms of product appearance comparison, AMOLED is lighter in appearance and has superior performance. Under wide temperature operation, AMOLED's fixed self-luminous principle makes its luminous effect unaffected by the external environment, with faster response time at low temperatures and higher contrast ratio at high temperatures. In terms of energy and power saving, each sub-pixel of AMOLED is independently controlled and power consumption varies depending on the content displayed on the screen, with weighted power consumption being only 60% of that of LCD.

(The good outdoor readability of AMOLED displays allows colours to be clearly rendered even in bright sunlight, providing a better viewing angle for outdoor reading.)

AMOLED vs TFT：

    Compared to traditional TFT material screen, AMOLED screen has the advantages of faster response time, self-luminous, excellent display effect and lower power consumption.

    AMOLED is the panel independent light-emitting; while TFT is relying on backlighting on the surface of the liquid crystal plate; AMOLED effect is more colourful, brighter, in the daytime outdoor can also clearly see the screen, the most critical is AMOLED is power consumption is much lower.

Application Areas and Trends：

    AMOLED is known as the next generation display technology, including Samsung Electronics, Samsung SDI, LG and Philips are all paying more attention to this new display technology.

    The world's first AMOLED integrated touchscreen was introduced in 2010 and is being used in high-end smart models.

    AMOLED is inherently superior to TFT LCD in terms of image quality, performance and cost.

    AMOLED has a faster response speed, higher contrast, and wider viewing angle. These are the places where AMOLED is inherently better than TFT LCD. In addition, AMOLED has the characteristics of self-illumination and does not need a backlight, so it can be made thinner and lighter than TFT. , and the AMOLED that does not need a backlight panel can save the cost of the backlight module, which accounts for 3~4% of the TFT LCD.

   Flexible AMOLED low power consumption, flexible, thin and light characteristics make it more suitable for smart wearable devices than LCD panels, especially in the field of smart watches. At present, Apple and Samsung two industry benchmark smart watches are using AMOLED panels, and get Huawei, Samsung and LG and other smart watch manufacturers to follow up, flexible AMOLED in the field of wearable broad prospects.

AMOLED is indeed a very attractive product, many big international brands are very fond of it, especially AMOLED in terms of power saving, very suitable for smart wear, AMOLED panel power consumption is only about 60% of TFT LCD, the future technology there is room for further decline.

1.39-Inch AMOLED Display

    With the increasing consumer demand for smartphones, smart wear/watches, tablets/laptops, TVs and other products, the performance requirements for display panel products have also increased accordingly, and various display panel manufacturers have accordingly launched display panel products that meet different performance requirements; R9 is the first smartwatch with AMOLED display newly launched by SMA.

    AMOLED's unique wide color gamut, thinness, outdoor readability and low power consumption, coupled with its 454*454 HD resolution, bring you the ultimate visual enjoyment and user experience, allowing you to present exciting content clearly, whether under bright outdoor light or in dark environments.

    And according to the relevant experimental data of Fudan University, AMOLED brightness is more soft and eye protection.

Bluetooth Calling & Voice Assistant

    R9 includes advanced speaker and microphone, which can be connected to smartphone via Bluetooth to answer and reject calls and view call logs on the watch side. Free up your hands, and answer calls smoothly and efficiently.

    Super high recognition rate voice assistant function, can connect Siri & Google Assist.
