What’s more interesting in the report, however, is the tip that BOE may be tasked with the production of iPhone 14 displays, too, despite not having an LTPO display technology of its own for such production.
“In the case of the iPhone 14 (tentative name) series to be released next year, Apple plans to apply a low-temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) thin film transistor (TFT) type OLED panel to at least one of the four types,” reveal industry sources, leaving us a bit perplexed.
Could the iPhone 14 models sport a brand new design and screen sizes then, with the smallest member of the group growing up and being equipped with a 60Hz screen to keep its costs and final price down?
