Foxconn noted that the technology is designed to meet the needs of "future mainstream global clients" but didn’t specify further. Nonetheless, the tech enthusiasts didn’t take too long to jump to conclusions. While Apple is still in the process of moving from LCD to OLED displays, this announcement hints that microLED displays are already on the horizon. Foxconn’s MicroLED Production Plans Foxconn recently announced a partnership with Porotech to produce microLED displays, initially focusing on augmented reality (AR) headsets. In a press statement, the company shared, “Hon Hai Technology Group (‘Foxconn’) has announced a partnership with Porotech to enter the augmented reality (AR) glasses market.” “Leveraging Porotech’s cutting-edge gallium nitride (GaN) technology and Foxconn’s vertically integrated services, from MicroLED wafer processing to packaging and optical modules, the collaboration aims to meet the demands for micro-display chips and AR glasses production. Together, they will provide high-performance, high-brightness, compact, and lightweight AR display solutions to advance global AR and micro-display technology development ,” the statement added. Hinting at the possible production timeline, the statement also mentioned, “The company plans to establish a MicroLED wafer processing production line in Taichung, with mass production slated to begin in Q4 2025.” This timeline suggests that the first products using microLED displays might debut as early as Q1 2026. Apple Moving From LCD to OLED Apple is still completing its shift to OLED across its devices. Initially, Apple used LCD with standard backlighting and then came LCD with mini-LED backlighting. The Apple Watch, iPhone and latest iPads now use OLED displays, while MacBooks are expected to follow most likely in 2026. However, Apple is already eyeing micro-LEDs for future devices. This next-generation display tech offers brighter visuals, improved colour accuracy, greater durability and better power efficiency without the risk of burn-in, a known issue with OLED. Apple’s first planned use of microLED was for an Apple Watch, but the project was reportedly delayed as the technology wasn’t ready for prime time. FAQs Q1.
