The vast repertoire of Xiaomi devices increases day by day, adding gadgets of all kinds (such as air and water purifiers, smart, wearable bikes, etc.) but its true dominant range remains and will always be that of smartphones. With that premise, over the years, the company has gradually increased the number of smartphones, ranging from a smartphone in its first year of operation (Mi 1) to the current production levels with an average of one device every three months. This has also led to a significant increase in the number of users with a Xiaomi brand device, so that it becomes one of the most famous brands on the Asian continent and beyond these borders!
Until now, all the company's smartphones have been characterized by the presence of IPS LCD displays, especially for Xiaomi flagships, but soon the situation could take another turn, as (to the happiness or otherwise of users) the company could use OLED panels. In fact, as reported by a Korean media, Lei Jun (Xiaomi CEO) would have gone to Seoul, South Korea, to meet the executives of Samsung Electronics. On that occasion, the Xiaomi CEO would have met Jeon Young-hyun, the president of the memory chips division for Samsung smartphones, but it is expected that he will also meet the Samsung executives of the display division. In fact, if you consider that Samsung has almost all the share of the OLED panel market (we are talking about over 90%) for smartphones, there is a good chance that Lei Jun will speak with these executives to establish a contract for the supply of panels. OLED to be implemented in Xiaomi smartphones.
Furthermore, such an agreement could seriously lead to the realization of the much rumored Xiaomi dual-edge smartphone (Mi Note Edge), as Samsung has already tried its hand several times with the production of devices equipped with this feature with excellent results. Finally, less likely but still to be taken into consideration, there is also the possibility that Lei Jun can talk to Samsung executives about the supply of Exynos processors to be implemented in the next flagships, even if, we are very skeptical about the latter. hypothesis.
So, what do you think of such a Xiaomi-Samsung deal? Could it really bring benefits to society? And if there was a chance to use OLED displays on Xiaomi smartphones, would you like or would like classic IPS LCD panels?
