What is AMOLED?

Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode display tech offering individual pixel illumination.

Direct Definition: AMOLED

Unlike traditional LCD screens that use a bright backlight behind the whole screen, AMOLED screens light up each pixel individually. When displaying black, the pixels turn off completely, saving battery and producing true dark blacks.

AMOLED

Deep Technical Explanation

AMOLED combines an active matrix thin-film transistor (TFT) array with organic light-emitting diodes. This eliminates light bleed, enables infinite contrast ratios (1,000,000:1+), sub-millisecond response times, and thin flexible display substrate manufacturing.
