Specifically, LG Display, a division specializing in the development and manufacture of screen panels of LG Electronics is working with Apple to test a prototype of a foldable iPhone. However, although the cooperation is in the early stages of development, the source mentioned above has not confirmed whether future iPhone models will use LG’s flexible screens, or Apple itself will. partnered with another OLED panel supplier like Samsung to successfully develop a new foldable iPhone.

If it is possible to “bid” for the supply of panels for Apple, this will be a “lucrative” contract for LG, especially in the context of LG’s smartphone business facing many difficulties.

According to recent sources, Apple is expected to introduce the foldable iPhone in 2023, supporting the Apple Pencil and many other technologies. Although it is many years slower than Huawei or Samsung, but Apple’s folding iPhone will be able to overcome most of the disadvantages of current folding screen smartphones.
