00:00Smartphone screens are about to get a serious upgrade, and Samsung Display just showed off the panel behind it.
00:05The company unveiled its new M16 OLED display, which it calls the world's first 6.9-inch smartphone screen to
00:13combine full 2K resolution with a smooth 165Hz refresh rate, all while using about 30% less power than before.
00:21That combination has always been a tricky balancing act, since more pixels and faster refresh rates usually mean more power
00:29draw and heat.
00:30Samsung says it solved that by thickening the pixel signal wiring at the nanometer level and shrinking the display driver
00:36chip's manufacturing process, letting pixels charge faster with less energy wasted.
00:41The panel can also hit up to 10,000 nits of local peak brightness, according to reports.
00:46The first phone to actually ship with it will be the upcoming IQO 16 on the Android side.
00:52But industry reports suggest Apple's iPhone 18 Pro lineup, and Google's next pixel phones could adopt the same M16 technology
01:00soon after.
