The latest
rumors about the next iPhones of 2018 converge on one point, the release
of3 models of three different screen sizes. But then
that certain specialists,
comme Ming Chi Kuo, see the arrival of two models in OLED and only one in LCD,
others,like the
magazine Digitimes, rather plantwo LCD models and one
an OLED. However, recent new indices based on orders
from Apple in OLED screen come ratherpress the second
assumption: the Cupertino company would still remain faithful to the LCD
This year.
It is in any case
what the Business Korea newspaper says, which in a report based on
sources close to Samsung specify that Apple would haverevised downwards its
OLED screen orders for the year 2018.
For the iPhone
is therefore logical to rely on the orders made by the Californian
with the Korean giant to imagine the future of the iPhone
next OLED iPhones on the other hand.
And it turns out that for the first quarter of 2018, the Cupertino company
would have ordered only 20 million OLED panels, which
representshalf as much as the previous quarter, while
that there is also provision for adrop in orders to 10 million for
the second quarter of 2018.
This could herald two important points for the iPhone X in 2018, as well
only for the next iPhone models. The current iPhone with Face ID released in
last Septembermay no longer be availablefrom
moment or soundreplacement would enter the market. It is in
in any case what these continuous declines in slab orders suggest
OLED. And this would thus be the first iPhone, since the iPhone 5,donkey
only stay on the market for one year.
On the other hand, the report specifies that this reduction in orders
OLED screen is significant enough to suggest that this
screen technologywould not be the most used for the news
iPhone range, expected for next September. So, it is
probable that among the 3 expected models,only one should be equipped
an OLED screen, or the one that would take over from the iPhone
with a larger screen diagonal however, 6.4 to 6.5 inches
possibly
The other two models, 5.7-5.8 inches and 6.0-6.1 inches should
therefore stay with LCD, a less efficient technology, but even less expensive
to produce, which should be reflected in prices.
