AUO was showing a rollable microLED display prototype at Touch Taiwan, and we have a bit more information, and a photo showing the display (provided by AUO).

The display is 17.3" in size, and AUO is targeting automotive applications. AUO says that the displays features an ultra-thin form factor, high brightness, wide color gamut, high contrast, and low reflectivity.

In March 20256 Sony announced that it has developed an RGB LED backlighted LCD technology, with plans to release the first such TV in 2026. The company filed to trademark "True RGB".

The company now formally announced its True RGB TVs, and reveals that the backlighting is actually made from RGB miniLEDs, not microLEDs. The company plans to release the first such TV soon, saying that it will have an extremely well color reproduction.

Last year Sony said that its new technology can enable brighter (up to 4,000 nits) displays with an increase color gamut and wider viewing angles. The company already demonstrated a 75-inch RGB LED LCD display that uses 96,000 LEDs to create 32,000 dimming zones. Each dimming zone is made from 3 LEDs (RGB), and the zones are controlled in clusters of 8, which in reality means there are only 8,000 different zones.

Saphlux has successfully completed its Series C funding round, raising 300 million Yuan (around $43.5 million USD)., from several Chinese investment funds and VCs. 

Saphlux says that it will utilize the funds to accelerate its R&D and achieve mass production of full-color AR microdisplays.
