The display technology transition to mini-LED and micro-LED has been a slow one for Apple. Where companies like MSI have already switched over to mini-LED for its laptops, we continue to see LCD-based products from Apple. However, according to a new report, Apple’s plan to switch to better technologies will take place through a major investment in a Taiwanese factory.

According to a report from Economic Daily Times, the approximate amount that Apple intends on investing is NT$10 or $334 million. The funds will be used to open a new factory at the Hsinchu Science Park in Taiwan, which will later be used to produce mini-LED and micro-LED screens for future products. The report also states that two Taiwanese suppliers, Epistar and AU Optronics will work with Apple to provide the necessary components in the future.
