Samsung is getting a lot of revenue from iPhone 14.

Apple and Samsung don’t touch each other, but they are business partners.

Samsung Display, which dominates the OLED market, is said to be the largest OLED supplier for Apple’s iPhones. It is said that Samsung manufactures more than 70% of the OLED panels required for the new iPhones manufactured by the American company Apple.

Speaking of the iPhone 14, the standard panels for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus as well as the LTPO display for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are also included. According to TheElec, a South Korean news outlet, Apple plans to produce 120 million units of the latest iPhone 14 series in 2022.

The screens needed for 120 million units will be at least 80 million Samsung Panels. We are going to buy more than 20 million from LG Display and about 6 million from Chinese Display Company BOE. It is not yet known which supplier will produce the remaining number of panels. According to reports, Samsung and LG Display are producing panels for all 4 versions of the iPhone 14, while BOE is only producing 6.1-inch LTPS OLEDs for the standard iPhone 14 model.

Conclusion

Of the more than 80 million panels to be produced by Samsung Display, more than 60 million are for the higher-priced iPhone 14 Pro versions, and these models are in better demand than expected. As LG Display is currently having production problems, there is also a possibility that Samsung Display will get more panel production share.

The iPhone 14s, which use Chinese BOE panels, did not sell very well, and because they changed the circuit design without telling Apple earlier, there were discussions on Apple’s part to review the contract.
