Samsung shutters LCD production, backs quantum dot moving forward
A spokeswoman for Samsung Display has told news agency Reuters that it will end LCD production in South Korea and China by the end of 2020.

Falling demand and a supply glut have
prompted the decision and one of two LCD
production lines in South Korea was suspended in
October according to a statement published on Reuters
yesterday. 

Instead the company is set to focus on
mass production of more advanced quantum dot screens.


A company statement published on Reuters confirmed: “We
will supply ordered LCDs to our customers by
the end of this year without any issues.”
