A report from Japan's Nikkei says that Apple has spent $1 billion to develop display technology to reduce its reliance on Samsung's OLED.
Apple has tried to reduce its display purchases from Samsung as it has turned to LG Display and China's BOE Technology to procure some displays. But multiple sources familiar with the situation say that the screens supplied by the pair don't have the stability of quality and the level of technology that Samsung's displays do.The ultimate goal is to have micro-LED displays used on the iPhone as one of Nikkei Asia's sources points out.
Chious told Nikkei Asia,"Apple has been investing in micro-LED technologies for years, and based on the company's previous moves, it often deployed a new technology on more than one product. Apple is one of the few brands that hasn't introduced foldable OLED devices. The technological characteristics of micro-LED have added a layer of imagination for the industry to see future iPhones featuring the display technologies.
One of the two sources said,"It doesn't mean that Apple will always do the mass transfer on its own. But it shows how determined Apple is to allocate resources to have more control over [these] next-gen display technologies in its own hands." Apple reportedly has R&D teams working on this technology in the U.S., Japan, and Taiwan. The latter unit has a headcount of over 1,000 people.
