Wang Jingyi, senior research manager at WitsView, pointed out that the three new production lines will initially only have a small investment and will take time to improve yield and production capacity, contributing only 3% of panel investment in 2018 and 2019 Increase to 6-8%.
And already put into operation on December 20, 2017 BOE Hefei 10.5 on behalf of the line, is expected to mass production in March 2018, the first product will lock the 65-inch UHD 60Hz TV panel, the second is a 75-inch UHD 60Hz TV panel, All large-size TV panels, which will lead to more than 65-inch large-size TV panel war into the white-hot stage.
