Apple Inc. (AAPL) is reportedly shifting to Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) displays for all its iPhone SE models, replacing the current Liquid-Crystal Display (LCD) screens, according to Japanese newspaper Nikkei.
Smartphones equipped with OLED displays typically consume less power and offer more vibrant colors compared to those using LCD technology.
Apple first integrated OLED screens into its lineup with the release of the iPhone X in 2017. Since then, OLED displays have become a staple in its premium models, including the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max.
Historically, LCD displays for iPhones have been sourced mainly from Japan Display and Sharp Corp., which collectively provided about 70% of the screens.
The report also mentioned that Apple is in preliminary talks with China's BOE Technology and South Korea's LG Display to secure OLED screen supplies.
