If you want a phone that does not use Samsung OLED panels at all, you’ll want to look for models that use displays from BOE, LG Display, Tianma, or Visionox. Here’s a list of phones (and series) that are known to use non-Samsung OLED panels, though panel suppliers can vary by region or even batch:

---

1. Apple iPhones (Select variants)​

• iPhone 12 – 15 series: While many use Samsung panels, some batches use LG Display or BOE panels (especially for non-Pro models like iPhone 13 or 14).
• Check model numbers (A**) online** to confirm specific panel suppliers.

---

2. Huawei / Honor​

• Huawei P50/P60/Pura 70 series: Use BOE or Visionox OLEDs.
• Honor Magic5/Magic6 series: Often use BOE or Tianma OLED panels.
• Huawei and Honor aggressively moved away from Samsung due to trade tensions.

---

3. Xiaomi / Redmi​

• Xiaomi 13/13T series: Some models use TCL CSOT or BOE OLED panels.
• Redmi Note 12 Pro/13 Pro: Often use Tianma or CSOT panels.
• Avoid high-end models like Xiaomi 14 Pro, which typically use Samsung panels.

---

4. Vivo / iQOO​

• Many iQOO models (like iQOO Neo 7, Neo 8) use BOE or Visionox panels.
• Vivo X90 (non-Pro): Uses BOE panel; X90 Pro+ uses Samsung E6.

---

5. Realme​

• Realme GT Neo series: Often use BOE or Tianma panels, depending on the model.

Quick Tips to Avoid Samsung Panels:​

• Avoid Samsung phones, obviously.
• Avoid high-end flagship phones, which tend to use the best Samsung panels (like E6/E7).
• Look for Chinese brands (Huawei, Honor, Vivo, Xiaomi) mid-range models — they frequently use BO

That's quite a lot of Brands not Including others like OnePlus & Nothing.

Basically almost all high-end models like Apple IP16, S24/25, 1+/Nothin/XM flagships....

Unless buy obscure brands like HMD or Nubia or budget XM(Poco) than can siam this thing.

Think saw a online complain oversea that some phone whole screen turn green. Wonder what's that ?

or check out display panel before buying. last year, 1+12 not using samsung panel, so i pull trigger.
so far, so good.

sounds like my s21. just before 2nd anniversary:
day 1: 2 lines (day 1 == day when 1 green and 1 purple line appeared)
approx 2 months later: 8-10 lines (mix of green, purple, white lines). left in drawer.
approx 2 months later: took it out, suddenly all multiplied, about 40% of screen obscured. not useable at all.
if i had waited 2 more months, won't be surprised if almost whole screen covered.

I like how you’re suggesting BOE is a good panel brand … I repaired several laptops and from all discussions on screens, there are people who treat what brand screen they get in their laptop like a “screen lottery” … with LG being the lottery winner, AU Optronics and another brand starts with H (can’t remember the name) being not-great-but-at-least-better-than … and with BOE being the “better luck next time” brand.

my s22 kena also. less than 1.5 year. nvr getting a samsuck again

Side note for those replacing their curved LCD panels.
The X Plus Premium protectors are very good.
The automated cutter cuts to the phone model. And of course the person installing it would need to install it well.
I think it’s even better than the default ones that Samsung gave in their earlier phone models.
Has a 6 months warranty to go back to the show reapply.
A little bit costly, but a very solid protector for Samsung curved screens.
