Redmi, the sub-brand of Xiaomi, announced that it would no longer use the LCD panel but will now use OLED panels on its phones. This situation did not please some users because prices may increase.

OLED display replaces LCD display on Xiaomi Redmi smartphones

OLED panels are used a lot in middle and upper segment phones. However, Xiaomi used an LCD display on the Redmi Note 11T Pro. Redmi Note 11T Pro was introduced in the past months. Although the company wants to keep the price affordable and dominate the market, it has officially announced that it will be the last LCD panel.

Xiaomi Group announced today that the Note 11T Pro could be the company’s last phone with an LCD display. Currently, OLED displays are preferred more often in mid and high-end models. Redmi’s Note series has also started using OLED displays. Although many industry sources and some users continue to prefering LCD screens, they consider OLED screens to be superior. As expected, this preference may cause an increase in prices.

OLED screens, which are more successful in terms of both battery life and performance, have started to be preferred more.
