Samsung Display is once again dominating the shipment of iPhone panels, Ross Young of DSCC (Display Supply Chain Consultants) reported. According to inside information, Apple bought 82% of the panels from Samsung, 12% from the Korean company LG Display and the other 6% from the Chinese BOE.
Apple iPhone 14 series screen deliveries
The iPhone 14 Pro Max units will only have Samsung panels at first, the report revealed. Apparently, LG is struggling to keep up with demand and has “technical challenges” and will start delivering screens as early as September.
Chinese manufacturer BOE is on the other side: it is capable of producing large volumes but Apple has limited purchases to the iPhone 14 series, with no Pro in sight. Samsung’s share is similar to that of the iPhone 13 series when it provided 83% of all panels.
Detailed information from Young, shipments from exhibitors to assembly plants were 1.8 million in June, 5.35 million in July, over 10 million in August and over 16.5 million in September. This means that Apple is preparing to have at least 34 million units for the first three months of the iPhone 14 sales.
The Far Out event will be held in Cupertino on September 7 when we foresee four phones: iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. We will also see the new A16 chipset that will only power the Pro versions, as well as new smartwatches. .
