The Future of MicroLED Displays: Which Applications Are Leading in 2025?

MicroLED technology finds itself at a pivotal moment, with the cancellation of Apple's 2024 project leading to strategic re-evaluations across the industry. Despite this challenge, MicroLED remains a strong contender for high-impact applications. In augmented reality (AR), LEDoS microdisplays are gaining ground, thanks to renewed optimism for AI-based solutions. The automotive sector is exploring MicroLEDs for innovative form factors and high-brightness displays. The market for large-screen TVs - over 100 inches - is also viable. However, widespread adoption depends on significant technological advances, next-generation manufacturing equipment and a strong supply chain. Overall, Yole forecasts a billion-dollar market by 2030 for MicroLED displays, but uncertainties remain before then.
