In 2017, Huawei’s Mate 10 was launched with an LCD screen, while the Mate 10 Pro used OLED. Now, speculation suggests that the upcoming Mate 20 Pro will feature a flexible OLED display provided by BOE, replacing earlier reliance on South Korean giants like Samsung Display and LG Display. The decision to adopt BOE’s panel is a strong signal of confidence in the quality and capabilities of the Chinese manufacturer.
South Korea’s Samsung Display currently holds over 90% of the market share in the flexible display industry. However, BOE, traditionally known for its LCDs, is now catching up fast — especially with its investments in sixth-generation flexible OLED production lines, including thin flexible OLED displays and foled (flexible organic light-emitting diode) technology.
The panel supplied to Huawei is believed to be a curved OLED monitor solution — potentially even a curved OLED 4K monitor class of product — paving the way for more advanced, immersive smartphone screens with elegant curvature and top-tier color performance.
BOE’s Expansion into Flexible OLED Displays
BOE’s entry into the flexible OLED display sector has not been without challenges. Despite late entry compared to rivals, the company’s investment in flexible LCD screens and OLED innovations is starting to pay off. BOE’s production capabilities are improving, and its flexible OLED displays are now gaining recognition from major global tech brands.
As the demand for flexible organic LED and organic light emitting diode monitors continues to rise — in smartphones, wearables, and advanced display technology — BOE’s role as a viable, competitive supplier becomes more evident.
