Useless article. There is no rise in oled.
Flagship devices makes a very low % of the total market.
For the very few that turned to oled for the under display fingerprint sxanner now we can not pretend that the oled is rising.

OLED is a transitory technology, ridden with problems. OLED has burn in and tint changing. For me it's out of discussion from the start, because I use navigation app at high brightness, which would destroy an OLED display in a matter of months, but even normal usage will destroy an OLED in 1-2 years. The future is inorganic, QLED or MicroLED. After one of these superior LED technologies rafines, OLED will be instantly forgotten.

I don't see Amoled/Poled based displays replacing LCD anytime soon. Amoled/Poled displays are just too SHORT-LIVED to make sense in long term use devices - in computer monitors and tvs. And they are super expensive too. Unless of course IF, like mobile phones, you like to replace computer monitors and your tv every two years or so.
The color shifts in amoled/poled based displays start to become apparent after just a year of use especially for users fond of high brightness settings. The permanent screen burn ins are unbearable after just a few months of use in computer monitors and tvs or anywhere where static screen elements are present. The lovely deep blacks and oversaturated colors in Amoled/Poled based displays just DOES NOT, CAN NOT, and WILL NEVER justify the HIGH PRICE and SHORT display life. It's only perfect, lovely, and superior to LCD in a few months, after which, it becomes worse than IPS LCD with those permanent screen burn ins and color shifts with brightness deterioration in as little as a year.
For sure in smartphones, OLED will overtake IPS LCD in popularity but make no mistake - OLED will not kill the LCD. On the contrary, LCD use will plateau. It will remain in minor use for low cost devices as MicroLED slowly replaces OLED. In the end, we'll only have LCD and MicroLED and no Amoled/Poled.

While the popularity party is for oled, oled has too many compromises
Diamond/pentile pattern pixel arrangements sucks and make oled resolution just weaker
1080p oled just can't compare to sharpness of 1080p ips
Burn in, energy inefficient whites, expensive repair costs

Boi...get ur facts right....Nokia been recently adopting OLED ? (xd)....ddddddamn....the first AMOLED phone I used was the Nokia C7 back in 2009-2010....and it was much much much much better than samsung had to offer those days.....in fact if it's processor was upgraded etc. I would still recommend that phone. Designs those days make current ones look like female cats.
I use samsung now...thats a different story.

Coming from LCD display to OLED, TBH im not going back to LCD, burn-in issue? Slight burn-in at the navigation bar, truthfully, it doesn't bother me at all. I've been using my phone with OLED screen for more than 2 years.

one con about oleds is that the blue sub-pixel tends to degrade earlier than the rest, so oled screens develops this yellowish or grenish tint as it gets older. i have used oled phones since the samsung jet back in 2009 up to the galaxy note 8 in 2017, and every single one of them developed this yellowish/greenish tint after only a year of usage. it gets progressively bad that by the third year its white is more like a yellow when compared to lcd. my last 3 phones have been lcds- razer 1, razer 2, and pocophone f1.

"punch hole cameras are more easily built into OLED than LCD"
So samsung is not the only one able to put holes in an amoled display So other flagships did not copy it because it's useless compared to teardrop notch
