Apple's 2021 iPhone series to sport 'touch integrated OLED' display.
Cupertino-based technology major Apple is reportedly planning to bring a new type of OLED screen for 2021-series iPhones.
Apple has placed an order for touch integrated Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED)-based screen panels from supply chains in South Korea to stock up its inventory for using them in iPhones next year, local daily ET News reported.
Samsung Display, which has already developed proprietary 'Y-OCTA' technology-based touch integrated OLED screen is said to have inked the deal with Apple. Also, Chinese company Beijing BOE Display Technology Co., Ltd is also trying to form an agreement for a similar contract with the American company.
For the uninitiated, currently, premium phones in the market come with plain OLED screen having a separate touch sensor film and this apparently increases
thickness of the display.
The touch sensor film takes up a very minute space, but even the tiniest empty plot on a compact mobile is really valuable, as it can lead to the radical change in design and also give leeway for hardware makers to increase the battery capacity and most importantly cut costs on raw materials and the labour to attach sensor film on the display.
On the other hand, a new OLED display, which the Apple plans to bring in the 2021-series iPhones are said to come ingrained with touch sensor film.
