Anyone have more info (more than is shown below) on these companies, eLux and LuxVue?

A longer-term threat is MicroLED, which has many of the benefits of OLED, but fewer drawbacks. In 2015, Apple opened a lab in Taiwan to work on new screen technologies, Bloomberg News reported at the time. Foxconn Technology Group, the biggest assembler of iPhones for Apple, has backed MicroLED startup eLux Inc. In 2014, Apple acquired LuxVue Technology Corp., a MicroLED maker.

The new technology is already being showcased in some high-end TVs. At the CES consumer electronics conference in January, Samsung demonstrated a 146-inch MicroLED TV dubbed "The Wall" because of its size. MicroLED is more energy efficient and brighter than OLED and lasts longer without burn-in, but yields are lower and sharpness is inferior for now, according to Soneira.

"MicroLED screens aren’t close to production for smartphones and smartwatches" and it will take "at least three to five years for OLED to be dislodged," he said.
