Disassembly in previous years shows that the most expensive components on the iPhone are the screen, camera module and processor. Following the iPhone 12/13, research firm Omdia said in a research report that Samsung, LG and BOE are expected to remain the three major suppliers of flexible OLED panels for the iPhone 14 series launched in the third quarter.
However, Apple still only purchases the 6.06-inch LTPS Liu Haiping from BOE iPhone 14 model. The 6.68-inch iPhone 14 Plus screen and the 6.12-inch iPhone 14 Pro screen are both powered by Samsung exclusively supplied
The research report also confirmed that the iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max will use a double-hole exclamation mark screen for the first time, but because of the difficulty of Face ID under the screen, the exclamation mark screen will continue to be retained on the iPhone in the next few years.
In terms of shipment ratio, this year, BOE’s screen supply ratio doubled to 15%, LGD accounted for 25%, and Samsung still had the most, reaching 60%.
