Reports say Apple aims to adopt OLEDs in iPhones in 2018, in talks with suppliers to secure capacity
Nov 26th
In the past few weeks I have read dozens of stories regarding Apple and their display choice for future iPhones. Some reports say that they aim to adopt OLEDs in their future iPhones starting in 2017, some say Apple decided to remain with LCDs… One thing for sure – the 2016 iPhones will use an LCD and not an OLED. One of the major reasons for that is that Apple sells around 200 million iPhones in a year – and there’s simply not enough OLED production capacity for that. New reports from Japan say that Apple does want to switch to OLEDs – and is in talks with suppliers to secure the capacity and increase the lifetime and performance of OLEDs.

According to a report from Japan, JOLED is set to establish a new OLED research facility in Japan’s Ishikawa Prefecture in a $161 investment. The facility will include a pilot line that will be able to produce samples by the end of 2016, and the facility will also evolve into a mass production fab that will begin production by 2018 (this will require, of course, a much larger investment). JOLED is mainly targeting medium sized (10 to 30 inch displays) to be used in tablets, laptops and monitors . JOLED is reportedly in talks with Apple regarding a possible iPad AMOLED supply agreement. This new report from Japan actually suggests that Apple aims to team up with both LGD and JOLED for a tablet OLED supply agreement – with LG Display to start supplying tablet OLEDs at the end of 2016 and JOLED To join when the new facility is ready in 2018.
