Apple wants Samsung and LG to develop 3500ppi OLEDoS panels for AR/VR device
Samsung and LG displays are the best in the market, and Apple on its iPhones uses the display which these two companies make. Recently, Apple has increased the specification it wants from its OLED on Silicon (OLEDoS) panel from Samsung and LG display manufacturers that it will use in upcoming AR/VR devices.
Going by the report, the US tech has originally requested Samsung and LG to develop 2800 PPI (Pixels per inch) panels for AR/VR devices. Meanwhile now, the company has increased the display specs to 3500 PPI.

The information further says that Apple will initially use Sony’s micro-displays and then shift to LG and Samsung in second-gen headsets. Apple’s mixed reality headset will start with OLEDoS at 3500ppi, meanwhile, Samsung and LG are working on using future LEDoS displays at 6,000-7,000ppi.
The Elec believes, “Samsung Display had been slow to dip its toe on OLEDoS as it believed it was a small market but the top executives at Samsung had admonished Samsung Display for judging on the technology quickly.”
Moreover, the information also suggests Apple considers OLEDoS to be a lower entry barrier than LEDoS and wants to take the lead on the latter technology over its rivals LG Display and Sony.

Samsung explores innovative AI summarization tech for Galaxy Z Flip 6
Samsung has recently disclosed a new patent on AI document summarization technology, which is expected to be applied to new products such as the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The sixth-generation foldables are on their way and it seems like the devices will be equipped with cutting-edge functionalities.
Going toward more details, Samsung Electronics applied for this innovative patent on February 29 with the title ‘Electronic device for providing summary information using artificial intelligence learning model and its control method’.
This newly explored innovation or the patent is a technology that works, when a search term is entered into an electronic device, AI analyzes it, shows several related documents, identifies the user’s interests or political inclinations, and then provides a customized summary.
Furthermore, Samsung Electronics is expected to apply the technology to its self-generated AI, ‘Samsung Gauss, which is applied to the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy Book 4 series. Therefore, new AI functions are expected to be added to the Galaxy Z Flip 6 through the new version of Samsung Gauss.

The sixth generation foldable devices including Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip are already tipped to come with Galaxy S24 Series-like Galaxy AI capabilities. And the inclusion of this innovative AI summarization tech will further make the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 a more advanced and refined device.
Last but not least, Samsung Electronics also provided an interesting example where AI can summarize articles. If a user enters an article on the topic of “Agenda for the South Korea-U.S. Summit,” and commands “summarize it shortly and neutrally,” AI would summarize keywords such as ‘North Korea, nuclear, missile, South Korea-U.S. military exercises,’ and if the command is to “summarize it long and negatively,” AI would summarize the article to say, “Disagreements between South Korea and the United States on North Korean solutions could cast a shadow on the upcoming South Korea-U.S. summit.”
