This report analyses the market for Mini-LEDs and Micro-LEDs, covering technology and market developments. The displays market is constantly advancing, with new technologies allowing for greatly improved brightness, HDR, and colour reproducibility. Recently, mini-LED and micro-LED have attracted major attention in the displays market and are being implemented in products by consumer electronics giants such as Samsung and Apple.

The market is projected to explode in the next few years, taking a significant chunk of the displays market and pushing into wearables, transparent display, flexible display, stretchable display for skin-integrated devices, AR/VR, smartphones automotive lighting such as active headlights, and projector applications. MiniLED backlights are utilized in large-screen TVs, monitors, automotive and industrial applications. Improvements MiniLED offer over incumbent display technologies include:

High brightness.
High contrast ratio.
Low power consumption.
Higher efficiency.

MicroLED started to gain market traction in 2022. MicroLEDs are targeted at direct view displays. Improvements they offer include:

high efficiency
high brightness-readable under sunshine (>10,000 nits)
high colour saturation
ultra-high resolution (>2000 dpi with Si backplane)
ultra-low power consumption
flexibility
quick response rate (on/off switching within nano-seconds).
long lifetime (>80,000 hours).

These properties make them attractive for application in very large TVs, AR/VR and automotive applications. Other applications include wearable/implantable optoelectronic devices, light communication/light interconnection, medical treatment, spatial imaging etc.
