Apple pioneered the use of "smart" watches Apple Watch display, technology OLED.However, in the company's plans do not include equipment data screens of smartphones iPhone, at least in the next generation of devices.
iPhone 6s will be equipped with conventional liquid crystal displays for Apple, analysts say JP Morgan. Plant Japan Display, in which the US giant computer electronics invested billions of dollars, will be able to produce annually about 100 million 5-inch LCD panels based on technology LTPS, which will be enough to produce new iPhone. Thus, information about the transition smartphone OLED screen has not been confirmed.
OLED-displays different small thickness and cost - LCD panel even with record low consumption can not be compared with them on this indicator. But this technology has some significant drawbacks. The main is that the picture fades in bright light and does not differ a great durability: over time, the display begins to overwhelm one of the colors.
Apple's interest in the OLED is not in doubt. Last year, she received a patent for technology that improves the properties of light-emitting elements in the organic light emitting diode displays. Previously, Apple hired a reputable expert on OLED-display and semiconductor James Lee, who previously collaborated with LG and Samsung. Now James Lee enters the state of the American consumer electronics giant.
The possibility of using OLED in the iPhone Rumor has since the release of the first model.One of the main advantages of the technology is the ability to create a device with a curved screen.
