When customers search for "tiny/miniature OLED display," they are often referring to displays smaller than 1 inch. Most developers are not very familiar with professional display terminology, so they may not know exactly which type of display they need.
Today, Panox Display will introduce the different types of displays available under 1 inch.
First, most developers tiny/miniature OLED display are referring to PMOLED
PMOLED (Passive Matrix OLED) is a display technology that emits light through organic materials. Compared with traditional LCDs, PMOLED does not require a backlight. It emits light directly when an electric current activates the organic material. Its advantages include fast response time, high contrast, and vivid colors.
PMOLED displays are typically composed of multiple independent pixels, each consisting of an organic film and two electrodes. When current passes through the organic film, light is emitted.
Common sizes of tiny/miniature PMOLEDs include:
0.49 inch PMOLED
0.66 inch PMOLED：https://www.panoxdisplay.com/pmoled/0-66-pmoled-white.html

0.95 inch PMOLED：https://www.panoxdisplay.com/pmoled/0-95-pmoled-full-color-96-64.html
0.96 inch PMOLED：https://www.panoxdisplay.com/pmoled/0-96-pmoled-white-blue-yellow.html
PMOLED displays are mainly used in electronic cigarettes, smart door locks, secondary phone screens, MP3 players, smart wristbands, and portable testing devices.
Second, some developers searching for tiny/miniature OLED displays are actually looking for Micro OLED
Micro OLED is a type of extremely small OLED display with very high resolution. Even the smallest 0.39 inch Micro OLED can reach a full HD resolution of 1920×1080.
Also known as Silicon-based OLED or OLEDoS, Micro OLED is a major improvement over traditional OLED technology. It replaces the traditional glass substrate with a single-crystal silicon substrate and integrates OLED with CMOS processes. This allows the size of each pixel to be reduced to about 1/10 of traditional OLED pixels, achieving much higher display precision.
Main Micro OLED sizes include:

Micro OLED is widely used in AR glasses, VR glasses, electronic binoculars, electronic monoculars, first-person view (FPV) goggles, electronic viewfinders (EVF) for medical equipment, video cameras, and still cameras.
With advantages such as high resolution, high brightness, and low power consumption, Micro OLED shows great potential in AR, VR, and MR (mixed reality) applications.
