News & Reviews:   OLED panel

OLED iPad has been a long-overdue product from Apple. However, this new information is here to shed some light on the timeline when the company is launching one. According to it, Samsung has just started developing a new kind of OLED, and it's said to appear on the 2024 iPads.

In the last few weeks, the rumour mill has been rife with chatter about a foldable iPhone. At this point, we're quite sure that it's going to be a thing, just not when exactly Apple will launch it (some say 2023). However, we do have more rumours that hint at the hardware specs.

When Apple designed the iPhone 12 series, OLED panels from BOE was part of the plan. Things didn't quite work on at the time, but it seems like the company will be catching up at last. Sources claim that BOE is now back in Apple's plan and will help supply the Apple with OLED panels.

For large electronics companies, it makes sense for them to be able to produce their own components. This is particularly true for Huawei due to the US trade restrictions. The company has been looking into making its supply chain independent and will be manufacturing a variety of in-house components.

Earlier, it was rumoured that Samsung was considering using screens made by Chinese firm BOE on their new smartphones. The change comes as it's believed that BOE’s OLED panels are cheaper than Samsung’s in-house screens. However, it is reported that the panels supplied by BOE couldn't make it to become the screens of the next Galaxy S series as they have failed in quality tests.
