Samsung is in a peculiar position as it relates to the iPhone. As a supplier of mobile components for Apple, Samsung is one of the Cupertino-based company’s biggest cheerleaders – the more iPhones sold, the more money the South Korean electronics giant takes home.
And if the latest rumors prove accurate, a display deal with Apple could see Samsung (and LG) earn even more cash from the iPhone.
As BGR notes, there have been three separate reports over the past few weeks indicating Apple will be moving from the LCD screen it uses in the iPhone to an OLED panel. Apparently the jump won’t happen with next year’s iPhone 7 or the following year’s iPhone 7s but rather, with the iPhone 8 in 2018.
