This according to the South Korean publication The Elec.
Samsung Display and LG Display already have the technical possibilities to manufacture such screens in what are called Gen 6 factories that can manufacture panels of up to 1500×1850 millimeters. However, they are working to make their respective productions more cost-effective by moving production to Gen 8.5 factories that can also assemble panels that are 2250×2600 millimeters.
