OLED growth dims as Trump tariffs threaten smartphone sales
Concerns are mounting over the potential slowdown in global smartphone shipments, triggered by US President Donald Trump's escalating tariff policies, which may in turn dampen the growth momentum of Korea's OLED display industry. According to market tracker Counterpoint Research on Monday, the global smartphone shipment growth forecast for this year has been revised down from 4.2 percent to 1.9 percent. The downgrade was attributed to new uncertainties surrounding US tariffs, the report said. Apple, the single largest buyer in the OLED market, remains at the center of attention as Korean panel suppliers closely monitor the unfolding trade developments. Another research firm, Omdia, also lowered its forecast for smartphone panel market growth, from 5 percent to 4 percent, citing weakening demand. Smartphone displays, which account for the largest share of the overall display market, are expected to see declining revenues. Market watchers warn that if tariffs are imposed on finished products such as smartphones, it could lead to higher retail prices and dampened consumer demand, and possibly force smartphone makers to pass the burden down to their suppliers. Currently, it is estimated that Samsung Display supplies about half of OLED panels for iPhones, followed by LG Display with 30 percent and China's BOE with 20 percent. For premium models such as the iPhone Pro, Korean firms are believed to be the sole suppliers. 'Should the Trump administration implement tariffs on smartphones, device manufacturers are likely to consider price hikes and component cost reductions to offset the impact,' said Im Mi-hye, a senior researcher at the Korea Eximbank's Overseas Economic Research Institute. 'Display makers will need to further intensify cost-cutting efforts to stay competitive.' Meanwhile, Chinese panel makers -- less reliant on Apple -- are expected to continue expanding their market share by catering primarily to local smartphone brands. Despite the overall market downgrade, Counterpoint Research forecasted Huawei's shipments to rise by 11 percent this year, saying that supply bottlenecks for key components are expected to ease by year-end, allowing Huawei to secure a solid foothold in China's mid- to low-end market. The TV OLED segment, where Korean companies hold a production monopoly, is also facing headwinds. In the first quarter of this year, average selling prices of OLED TV panels fell by 5 to 9 percent compared to a year ago, continuing a downward trend that began in the third quarter of 2023. 'In the short term, the US tariff policy may have a limited impact on Korea's display industry,' said an industry source who requested anonymity. 'However, in the long term, fears of inflation and global economic slowdown are likely to dampen demand for IT devices -- and with it, the demand and pricing power for displays as well.'

Huawei Intelligent Operations Advances AI and Gen-AI in ICT
BARCELONA, Spain, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Operating telecommunications networks is getting more difficult. Networks are converging: fixed and mobile are often both required to provide a given service experience, whether it's an IoT use case or end-to-end network slicing. As networks become more software-driven, operating them requires different skills in maintenance, and assurance. Add to that complexity new technologies like enterprise-oriented APIs and agentic AI. These technologies can optimize network operations for granular service differentiation and prioritize business KPIs over simple uptime. With the right architecture and operational practices, networks can serve much more diverse use cases with a higher degree of reliability. Huawei Can Help Huawei Intelligent Operations works closely with its own network technology engineers as well as with industry standards bodies to guide the evolution of network services, and to ensure it supports all industry best practices. It works closely with the TM Forum, coordinating customer inputs and its own operational vision to create service-centric operational metrics. Thus, Huawei is expanding the boundaries of AI in telecoms operations, devoting intensive research into digital twins and telecoms-specific foundation models. Additionally, it feeds its substantial experience running telecoms networks back into its own operational best practices. Key examples: In the Asia-Pacific region, Huawei collaborated with a carrier to analyze the service impact of faulty sites. The work made use of Huawei's Expected Demand Not Served algorithm, which identifies service usage that is lower than usual, identifies faults that may be leading to depressed usage, and prioritizes fixes to return the network to its designed functionality. This has reduced traffic loss by 15% for this carrier. In the Middle East, Huawei Intelligent Operations significantly improved topology accuracy for an FTTx network, using delay-tolerant network architecture to reduce invalid work orders by 60%, and ultimately, led to a 10% decline in customer complaints. In Europe, Huawei used Gen-AI to improve MTTR by 25%. Huawei's work with the carrier on role-based copilots for field maintenance personnel and multi-agent collaboration to provide comprehensive treatment of complex scenarios. "Huawei Intelligent Operations believes not only in helping its CSP partners conquer its existing operational challenges, but in helping them harness the latest technology to drive new business benefits across the company" – Kevin Ye, President, Intelligent Operation Domain, Huawei Gen-AI Applications and Challenges The dramatic rise of generative AI has led to two basic operational models: copilots and agents. Copilots help a human employee for coding, configuring systems, or managing a stream of service quality data and trouble tickets. Agents are more devoted to a specific set of tasks or operational concerns, and can operate independently under the supervision of a human employee. In order to use Gen-AI, these tools must address the following concerns: Huawei Intelligent Operations can help. DeepSeek: The Next Generation of Gen-AI The January 2025 introduction of DeepSeek proved that Gen-AI could provide all of its current capabilities with a much more efficient model. Huawei's research indicates that DeepSeek provides advantages such as domain knowledge construction and application, code generation, data analysis, and intelligent ticket processing have direct application to CSP operations. Huawei is at the forefront of applying these new models to telecoms infrastructure. Huawei's Vision for ICT Operations Huawei believes that ICT technology will continue to play an important role in driving the digital economy, with new technologies acting as intelligent accelerators. Reliable network operations and intelligent operations will continue to grow in importance. Huawei continues to invest heavily in R&D to support these advancements, and will continue to accelerate the transformation toward intelligent operation. Recently, Huawei has collaborated with TM Forum and leading carriers to release annual versions of the New-Generation Intelligent Operations W hite P aper 3.0
