According to a Korean-based publication named ET News, the upcoming Pixel 9 series is expected to come with new organic light-emitting diode ( OLED ) panels which will be supplied by Samsung Display. The report highlighted that the new organic material is called M14 which is expected to provide improved screen brightness and durability to smartphones, making it one of the competitive display technologies in the market. This is speculated to give tough competition to the Galaxy S24 since it uses the current M13 display technology, and it is currently being appreciated by many smartphone users.
