It's been a couple of weeks since Valve unveiled Steam Deck OLED, an updated iteration of its handheld gaming device. The biggest improvement was the addition of an OLED display which undoubtedly elevates the gaming experience. Samsung Display is believed to be supplying the OLED panels for this handheld gaming device. At one point, China's […]
Funny how the article phrases it as orders being stolen from Samsung as if they have the sole right to supply screens to Valve. And repeatedly mentioning that BOE is Chinese but never mentioning that Samsung is Korean, why does only one of them matter? It’s not like either of them is based in the US where the lawsuit is actually happening.
BOE being Chinese is mentioned twice in this article, Samsung being Korean is not mentioned at all. In an article below it, BOE and Samsung are mentioned again, and once again, Samsung has no country mentioned while BOE has China. In the same paragraph, another company is mentioned explicitly as from China. They obviously only mention it for Chinese firms.
Or are you saying that the article doesn’t take a clear stance against BOE and for Samsung? Because in that case I’d have to assume it’s you who didn’t read it…
South Korean Tech and Chinese Tech industries have vastly different morals and quality control. The Chinese pretty much stole the OLED technology, as they do in many fields. They don’t believe in intellectual property.
There are people in the West who don’t believe in intellectual property. Hell, this subreddit is full of people who emulate older games and technically disregard intellectual property, me included. There are big companies training AI models on data they don’t own, working in a grey area regarding intellectual property. And I bet if South Korea didn’t prosecute for theft like that (you’re right that it is theft, not arguing that btw), then Samsung would do the same. It’s just good for business to take every advantage they can, up to and including theft if permitted.
While it’s theft, there are so many shady things done by companies, from unfair competition all the way to use of slavery (in countries like China, yes, but also paid for by Western companies sadly), that I just plain don’t care that much about intellectual property rights. Maybe I should…
An article would be helpful if you want me to read what you’re reading. Because when I search for samsung oled stolen by chinese I get articles about this exact lawsuit as well as a leak for curved OLED tech. Nothing that would be relevant for small 800p OLED displays that don’t bend or fold or curve or anything like that.

The upvotes on this comment is a testament to how few people actually read the articles posted on reddit, lol.
