Meanwhile, Epistar also progresses Mini LED-based applications on larger size displays and is trying to speed up the manufacturing of 27 inch panel. The company expects to launch the display the latest by 2019 and to break through the current obstacles in mass production to increase the production by 2020 in an investor conference.

For Micro LED, the company said its application on TVs and wearable devices will be demonstrated by the second half of 2018, however, due to the limitation of technology and high cost, Epistar forecasts that Micro LED-based products might be showcased during 2023-2025.

Currently the company runs faster with Mini LED and estimated that Mini LED would take 30-40% of the revenue by 2020.
