Apple reportedly made the decision to apply Samsung Display to create the folding OLED screens for the project in its attempts to make the phone Fold a fact. The panel, which essentially defines how the system functions, is perhaps the most crucial component of the phone Fold. For its first folding release, it appears that Apple has narrowed the screen’s focus to Samsung Display. According to Business Korea sources, Apple has finally chosen to use Samsung Display as its folding display provider. Apple will only be using Samsung for its folded system displays at the moment, despite working with other distributors for its materials, including LG Display and BOE. It is claimed that Samsung Display had a professional advantage in minimizing the panel seam, which Apple has maintained as a top priority while building the component. According to sources, Samsung’s expertise with its own sliding goods even contributed. The statement adds that by the end of 2025 or first 2026, the part will begin full mass production, according to the report. It will cover both the major, big, folding OLED panel, which is supposed to be around 7.8 inches, and an external display that is about 5. 5 inches tall. &# 13, Apple makes an unexpected move by choosing one display supplier because it frequently relies on various suppliers for the part. It’s a strategy that exacerbates supplier competition, frequently reducing costs and improving quality. &# 13, In this case, it would be excluding LG Display, a long-standing supply chain partner, despite a protracted period of ongoing collaboration on the project. &# 13; In 2016, reports claimed LG Display had chosen Apple as one of its first foldable OLED display partners. Apple allegedly collaborated with LG Display in a “task power” in 2017 to freeze Google Display in a future folding phone camera. In 2021, after reports insisted that Apple was also working with LG on portable windows. By 2022, Apple was working on screens for Samsung and LG with little cracks. 13 / 14- Although it appears that Apple will only be working with Samsung on the first iPhone Fold, this does not automatically mean that LG has stopped producing. If the phone Fold sells much units, or for a second folded model in the future, LG Display is conceivable to get involved in this development.
