According to the Korean publication ET New report, Samsung is considering the use of OLED panels with M13 organic materials instead of its new-generation LTPO OLED displays. This major change may disappoint many fans since the M13 material is an older generation OLED panel and we already have M14 organic materials in the market. For greater understanding, the M14 organic materials are said to be brighter and offer a greater lifespan than the M13 material. This year's top-end models such as iPhone 16 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro are powered by the  M14 organic material display.

This similar display material was also featured in this year's Samsung Galaxy S24 series, therefore, the company is simply not planning a display upgrade. The report suggests that Samsung is considering  M13 organic materials as a move to cut costs. Display Chain Supply Consultants (DSCC) CEO Ross Young also highlighted similar claims, making the rumours even more credible. However, the reasons for cost-cutting are unknown and we may get to know about it after the official Samsung Galaxy S25 series launch.
