LG Display will now be making OLED panels for Apple’s iPhones, with a new report claiming that the first batch will be ready before the release of the new generation lineup in the month of September. Naturally, this will decrease Apple’s dependence on Samsung, which is currently the only supplier of OLED display for the iPhone X. However, LG might not unseat Samsung as the exclusive display supplier of Apple for the upcoming iPhone generation, but it will certainly allow Apple to negotiate more with Samsung.

According to Bloomberg, LG Display will make around 2 to 4 million OLED units, but the output is projected to increase in the coming months. There is a possibility that Apple will procure OLED displays for one of its two OLED iPhone models from LG and Samsung will supply panels for the other model.
