Samsung: LCD production will now be an independent

Samsung announces the "spin out" of its production of LCDs, namely Samsung Display now has its own independent capital and will be outside the parent company at the executive level.

The starting capital is 667 million dollars, and the official birth of "new" corporation will be on 1 April. The significance of this move is ambiguous. It 's really hard to figure out if the business of traditional screens is problematic for Samsung or profitable.

Surely - and this really did not rain - Samsung has a huge impact on the smartphone market with their displays, especially the beautiful OLED display adorning the Galaxy Notes and the rest of the top of the range. It should be noted that the division OLED will not move an inch, and would remain at the core brand.

The Division TV and computer monitor, however, has a mixed record of success. Walk into any mall European to see the name of Samsung is one of those most in evidence in the TV industry, but at the same time no one is sure that the business is so solid as to gain the Korean corporation, as LG, the Japanese industries and an additional unknown number of Chinese manufacturers and fight fiercely for the market, not skimping on dumping.

The section that deals with PC displays, meanwhile, is a key supplier for many other companies, like Apple itself. I wonder if the new name and independence will have an effect here? We'll have to wait a year to try to deal in his pocket to the newly formed Samsung Display.
