woah who could've thought that this would happen? I mean it's not like MicroLED is a tough to produce technology, so tough that Samsung producing a 76 inch Micro LED is worthy of a tech showcase in CES 2024 right? Like bruh, they're trying to make microLED displays for a bloody watch, who needs that? Like what is even the purpose of it? I hope they can get someone proper instead of some random Austrian company to do the job because this is not a problem that requires a small scale solution because in a small scale, microLEDs can be produced, but the problem is mass production and clearly this company ain't upto the mark for freaking Apple, if it were a super exclusive watch from let's say Xiaomi or Huawei they might've pulled it off, or even Rolex or something yk. But it's Apple, people WILL buy. Sales will be higher than 10 thousand at least and that's gonna be tough af for them to produce let alone have products that pass quality checks/quality assurance without costing more than a used Camry.

    wowzers, microled on a 1in display, i totally need that and this will be 100000% worthy of upgrading from my apple watch ultra 2 that costed my my car!!

      What a tragedy. I won't be able to sleep well at night now

        Well yay 😟😭

          microled is promising. oled looks good on a brand new product but burn-in is inevitable, therefore oled IS garbage.
