iPhone 8 it will have an OLED screen, for now we don't know for sure why the diagonal, but it is as clear as possible that this type of component was chosen by Apple. Moreover, Apple seems to have chosen the supplier of the component, so Samsung will manufacture the new OLED screen for iPhone 8 before the official launch.
Today, new Asian sources have confirmed that Samsung will manufacture the OLED screen for the iPhone 8, so there can be no more discussions about the choice of Apple's. However, according to today's data, Samsung can only produce 20 million OLED screens per month for the iPhone 8, far below what Apple would need.
It is rumored that Apple will release an iPhone 8 with a 5.8-inch OLED screen and two more models of the iPhone 7S, which have 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch diagonal screens. At the same time, it is estimated that in 2017 Apple will buy between 60 and 70 million OLED screens for the iPhone 8, but the figure is subject to change depending on the number of units that can be produced.
The iPhone 8 will have an OLED screen produced by Samsung
Those from Samsung, together with other Apple partners, will initiate a test production for iPhone 8 components as early as March, with mass production to begin in May-June. This calendar is similar to the one seen in the past years for various other iPhone models, so it is absolutely not difficult to believe that things will not change for the iPhone 8.
"Samsung Display will become the exclusive supplier of AMOLED panels for use in Apple's new iPhone devices to be launched in 2017 and can supply 20 million units in a maximum of a month. Apple will launch 4.7-, 5.5- and 5.8-inch new iPhone models in the second half of 2017, with TFT-LCD panels to be used in the former two models and AMOLED for the 5.8-inch one, the sources said. Global shipments of the AMOLED iPhone in 2017 are estimated at 60-70 million units."
Samsung is announced again as the exclusive supplier of OLED screens for the iPhone 8, and considering that other companies can't even come close to its production, the information should be credible. Samsung has been the largest producer of OLED screens for mobile terminals for several years, and for the iPhone 8 it was clear that Apple would turn to the Koreans.
The production of OLED screens for smartphones is much lower than that for LCD screens, and from here Apple will have problems with the iPhone 8. This is the reason why three new models of the iPhone will be launched next year, but the iPhone 8 with Curved and borderless OLED screen on the front panel, it will be in everyone's attention.
