And it is that the movements for the new iPhone X model have already been active in Apple for some time. Now there is talk of 70 million units of OLED panels that Apple has asked Samsung Electronics to install in the following iPhones, but it seems that they will not be installed in all models only on that rumored iPhone X. The components for Apple's iPhone 2017 are already in the oven and it is expected that in spite of everything the demand will exceed the available units, limiting the iPhone that will be able to be purchased in the days after its presentation.
IHS Markit analyst David Hsieh has already warned as they do in the report Nikkei, that the request for OLED screens has already been made and now Samsung has this important work ahead of it. The size of the order does not surprise us if we consider that it is not the first time that the Cupertino company has bought panels from Samsung and in large quantities, but this time there is talk of a 5,2-inch screen for the OLED and two more of 4,7 and 5,5 inches for the usual LCDs that Apple has in its iPhone.
There is a long way before the new iPhone see the light and as long as this does not happen, rumors and leaks in the supply chains, together with analysts' forecasts, will continue to reach the network. At the moment what sounds the most for this iPhone 8, iPhone X or whatever you want to call it, is wireless charging, 3D facial recognition sensor (hopefully better than Samsung's) and the OLED screen on the device, being the first iPhone to carry this type of screen. We will see what remains along the way over time.
