According to Taiwan media digitimes reports, industry insiders said that mini LED technology is mature enough to even enter mass production this year, but has not yet reached mass production. According to reports, the mini LED backlight technology for LCD IPS displays may become an industry changer. According to the source, the LCD display using LED backlight technology is far better than today's LCD displays in brightness, contrast, color reproduction and energy saving, and can even compete with AMOLED while controlling production costs. As the number of LEDs used for panel backlighting has greatly increased, the new technology can also greatly improve the HDR performance of LCD screens. Taking a standard smartphone as an example, a 5-inch phone display contains about 25 LED units, while a mini LED backlight can contain 9,000 to 10,000 units. This will lead to better HDR performance due to finer control.

OLED panels are still better at the moment due to the ability to dim individual pixels, but mini LED backlit displays can still meet the extreme requirements of handling local dimming when displaying HDR content. Even better, the new screen can also compete with AMOLED displays in terms of thickness.
 
Looking to the future, the mini LED backlight panel is the basis of the future micro LED backlight panel, which is still difficult to produce because of the trouble to repair and the need to adjust the CRI (color rendering index) to match the current existing display. If these problems are solved, micro LED technology can finally combine the advantages of OLED and LCD.
