Reports suggest that the iPhone 8 could start at around $1,100/£845/AU$1,380, which is expensive even by iPhone standards, and it seems that Samsung could be partly to blame for that.
Specifically, a new report from analysts at KGI Securities claims that the OLED panels Samsung is providing for the phone will cost at least twice as much as the LCD panels Apple was previously using, up from around $45-$55 to $120-$130 for each panel.
