Before Apple released the new iPhone 15 series, the 2024 iPhone 16 broke the news and added another pile. According to Korean media The Elec, Apple is considering using microlens array (MLA) technology for the iPhone 16 series OLED screens, which will reduce screen power consumption and increase screen brightness if feasible. Apple is considering using micro-see-through MLA technology for the iPhone 16. It is reported that Apple’s display panel suppliers Samsung Display and LG Display have proposed the application of microlens array (MLA) technology on OLED panels, but Apple is considering whether to deploy it and has not yet received a response. The main reason is that There are pros and cons to this technology. The main advantage of using MLA micro-see-through technology is that it can increase the brightness of the OLED screen, avoid excessive power consumption, and greatly increase the battery life of the iPhone. However, MLA technology mainly uses billions of lenses evenly distributed in the panel, which can reduce the internal reflection of the panel and turn to the screen, thereby improving the front brightness. After the light is straightened, the side brightness is also reduced. If you look at the screen from the side The field of view is also narrowed, and yet another MLA disadvantage is that it increases OLED manufacturing costs. Another factor that makes Apple consider is the difference in the materials developed by Samsung and LG suppliers. It is also reported that the MLA panel technology of the two companies cannot meet Apple’s high standards. The gap between Samsung and LG’s experience in MLA technology is too large. According to reports, Samsung has considerable experience in OLED panels with MLA technology. Together with its own Galaxy S Ultra models, it has adopted MLA technology, and even provided MLA to many Chinese mobile phone manufacturers such as VIVO. OLED screen panel. Most of LG’s MLA technology applications are only used in OLED smart TVs, and there is no experience in the application of small and medium-sized panels. After all, small and medium-sized mobile devices require different adjustments in the direction of light on the screen. If Apple finally approves the MLA technology application proposed by the two screen suppliers, it will be applied to the iPhone 16 series models in the second half of 2024 at the earliest. In addition to brushing technology, perhaps the iPhone 16 Pro series can support MLA technology, and can once again widen the specification gap between the basic and flagship models.
