Samsung's semiconductor division, together with Samsung Display, are the ones that generate the most revenue every year for the Korean company, well above the income they obtain from the sale of smartphones, televisions, appliances ... OLED screens manufactured by Samsung, we can not only find them in the iPhone.
Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo and OnePlus are other manufacturers that also use the screens manufactured by the Korean multinational. Apple's first smartphone with OLED displays was the iPhone X. Since then, despite attempts to diversify manufacturing, Apple cannot find a quality alternative.
The latest report published by Digitimes related to the iPhone 12, points out that Samsung will be in charge of the manufacture of 80% of OLED displays of the new iPhone 12 range, a range that will mean, according to various rumors, a change in screen sizes that have been accompanying us in recent years, rumors that also claim that all models that are launched will use OLED technology on their screens.
The rest of OLED display manufacturing For the new iPhone 12 range, it falls to the Asian company BOE (in charge of manufacturing the screens for the Apple Watch) and LG, the Korean company that continues to do everything possible year after year to expand its collaboration with Apple.
Samsung dependency
Apple has no problem with Samsung being responsible for the manufacture of the screens of the iPhone range, since it is the only one that has the facilities to produce the quantities that Apple needs and that also exceeds the standards required by the company. However, from Apple they want to diversify production, so that in the hypothetical case that production was interrupted for some reason, other than Samsung, Apple could maintain a constant supply.
