Samsung showcased World's First QD-LED at SID Display week 2024

Samsung Display showcased its latest OLED displays and technologies at SID Display week 2024 that includes an Ultra-Thin AMOLED, two tandem-stack OLEDs, a 1.03-inch microdisplay OLEDoS display for XR headsets & the world's first QD-LED Display

Unlike QD-OLED Display, the QD-LED lacks the organic material that makes QD-OLED (and all other OLED) panels susceptible to burn-in issues, aging and limited brightness.

QD-LED panels feature pixels made using semiconductor material, and they can create RGB colors and backlight.
So, in theory, it is like OLED and Micro LED panels, but it lacks organic material that is susceptible to damage in the long run.

According to Samsung Display, QD-LED panels can accurately reproduce a wide color gamut & the manufacturing of the panels is easier through inkjet printing

QD-LED panels use cadmium-free quantum dots, which are great for the environment.

Display Manufacturers are experimenting with different refresh rate to save battery life

Some display manufacturers are creating displays with variable refresh rate such that the status bar would run at 30Hz refresh rate to save battery life while the remaining display could run at a higher 120Hz

Visionox is calling this tech as Inteligent Technology & it can also cut the IC power by upto 20% to conserve battery

A Mesa Vulkan driver for Mali GPU is Coming
Source

A Mesa Vulkan driver for Mali (Valhall 3 or later) is coming next month

"The Panfrost team received the source code and technical support for the latest architecture GPU provided by ARM as early as October last year and is developing a mesa-vulkan driver with very good compatibility. OpenGL and GLES are already supported, and it is very efficient."

"The OpenGL performance of this driver has been tested on the Ubuntu 22.04 system, with more than 40 frames for group play on the Warcraft 3 map, and more than 20 frames for the ARM version of yuzu Tears of the Kingdom on Linux."
(tested on MediaTek Dimensity 8100)

"One thing achieved with the new architecture and Arm's closer support is these core Vulkan drivers. These modern GPUs are natively architected for Vulkan, making it easier to support modern high-performance workloads with Vulkan."

Thus the emulation performance would be greatly improved on Mali-GPUs on Android
