According to Omdia analyst Hiroshi Hayase's estimate (via), sales of "amusement" screens are expected to double in 2024 due to a new Nintendo product. The source claims that the aforementioned gadget, which is most likely the Nintendo Switch 2, has an 8-inch display.
Hayase is a specialist in the small- to medium-sized display sector, which includes digital consumer goods, car monitors, and smartphone displays. His work focuses on technology related to tiny and medium-sized displays, such as electronic paper displays, passive matrix LCD, active matrix LCD, and AM and PM OLED displays. His yearly projections are based on interviews with supply chain partners.
Taiwain's Economic Daily has revealed alleged facts about the Nintendo Switch 2's technical specifications, including information on the device's display. According to market forecasts, the insider said that the console manufacturer plans to release the next Switch this year in 2024. But because of limitations like inflation around the world, the new gadget will cost $400 US dollars at retail—$100 more than the Nintendo Switch.
The market expects Nintendo will release its next system in the second half of this year, the source said, since the Switch hasn't received a significant hardware update since its release. It is said that the hardware will include a battery with a much longer lifespan, an NVIDIA T239 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage.
July 2019: Sony Corporation, one of the leading players in India, unveiled the Bravia A9G 4K OLED TV, providing an exceptional viewing experience. This television features Netflix-calibrated mode, HDR, and Dolby Vision.
October 2019: WiseChip, a prominent player in the industry, introduced its groundbreaking innovation, the Hyperfluorescence OLED display. This display, measuring 2.7" with a monochrome yellow 128x64 PMOLED, is the world's first of its kind. Notably, the brightness of this display is 2.5 times greater than Wisechip's fluorescent yellow PMOLED.
