LG has started supplying Apple with OLED displays for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, according to South Korea’s ETNews. It’s unclear how many orders LG will split with Samsung, which has so far been the exclusive supplier of displays for these devices.
Supplier diversification reduces risk and could allow Apple to negotiate lower costs in the future as LG and Samsung vie for orders.
It’s unclear when Apple will start shipping iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models with LG displays, but customers are unlikely to notice the difference between models with LG displays and Samsung displays. Apple typically relies on multiple suppliers for some other iPhone components, from storage to batteries.
The iPhone 14 Pro display uses low-power LTPO technology for ProMotion, which enables variable refresh rates between 10Hz and 120Hz. In an optional always-on display mode, the display can also drop down to an ultra-low power consumption of 1Hz.
The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus displays are reportedly supplied by Samsung and China’s BOE.
