Domestic companies move in to grab a larger slice of the cake

Display screen manufacturers in China are expanding their market share in the smartphone sector as they move into high-end products.

Geng Yi, deputy secretary-general of China OLED Industry Alliance, confirmed that the trend is gathering pace.

"The core screen technology used to be dominated by Japanese and South Korean firms," Geng said. "But as domestic brands invested in screen innovation, they started catching up and expanded production capacity."
