In recent years, with the development of small-pitch technology, LED display applications have expanded from outdoor display to indoor display, from professional display to commercial display, and even consumer display. Not only China’s display manufacturers but also international manufacturers Samsung, LG, Sony, and other consumer electronics brands that originally weakened the layout of large-screen LED displays have gradually broadened the layout of micro LED.

Some time ago, Samsung announced it to reduce the cost of its new 89-inch and 101-inch models by about 40%. The 114-inch version will be launched at the end of the year, with a price positioning of nearly 100,000 US dollars (about 633,400 yuan), while the 89-inch price is nearly 80,000 US dollars (about 506,700 yuan).
