plans Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), regarding the launch of a iPhone with OLED screen are becoming more and more clear thanks to new information obtained by Asian journalists from Apple's local partners.
I told you the other day that Samsung is courting Apple to convince the American company to use OLED technology in iPhone starting with 2018 and iPhone 8, and today we have a new confirmation of the fact that in Cupertino there is an intention to make the transition from IPS in less than 3 years.
According to a publication in Japan, Apple has already notified its partners about its future intentions, but Apple intends to produce iPhones that have both OLED and LCD screens, but this is due to the limited production of screens OLED.
Although Apple has announced its intentions, those from Cupertino are still investigating the opportunity of such a big change made for the screens of Samsung terminals, so if the technology will not be good enough then, the iPhone 8 will also be launched with an LCD screen.
Apple plans to introduce organic light-emitting diode displays for iPhones starting in 2018, sending suppliers racing to fine-tune the technology and invest in capacity expansion. Apple has begun consulting with display manufacturers and their suppliers of manufacturing equipment about the technology.
Today's information confirms the rumors of the past few days, and those from Samsung and LG are going to be the main suppliers of OLED screens for the Apple company, those from Sharp are going to be left behind by those from Cupertino, at least until they have factories where screens are produced with this technology.
Considering that this is the second time we see this information provided by a different source, it is clear that Apple wants to make a major change for iPhone screens, but only with the iPhone 8 will we see everything, iPhone 7 si iPhone 7C coming to have LCD screens.
