The iPhone 8 is expected to be the iPhone with an OLED display and that will be using Samsung’s finest.
But the dark satanic rumour mill suggests that the inner circle of the Apple cult is worried about being dependant on Samsung and wants to create its own OLED panels.
ET News -South Korea - reports the company has already acquired some chemical vapour deposition (CVD) machines that'll play a role in OLED production.
Apple will need a major supply of OLED panels and it will have a year to do it.
Digitimes claims that Apple’s move will “break the dominant position" held by Canon Kokki in the CVD machinery market.
Canon Kokki supplies its machines to Samsung and LG, the only significant current OLED makers, but Apple got its machines from Sunic System.
