:'''2. Use of OLEDs will enable mobile manufacturers to provide all these features more effectively owing to its wide viewing angle, faster response time and higher contrast ratio.'''
 
===Market Constraints===
 
:* '''Cost of OLED''' – Although the performance benefits of OLEDs surpass LCDs, the decreasing cost of LCDs and enhancement in LCD technology is the key factor constraining the industry. LCD manufacturers will continue to improve their products and search for ways to reduce overhead costs.
 
:* '''Sunlight Readability''' – OLED’s emit light. Bright sunlight would interfere and wash out the image.
