Apple is expected to launch its next-gen iPhone lineup next month. As the anticipation continues to rise, Samsung and LG Display have boosted OLED display production for the upcoming iPhone 16 series models from Apple.
Korea’s ETNews reports that Samsung and LG Display have been producing Apple iPhone 16 OLED display since last month. Both companies are known to have commenced initial production in June, which significantly boosted at the end of July.
The release of Apple’s new iPhone models would considerably push the display industry. South Korea’s Samsung Display and LG Display will benefit significantly. China’s BOE is also rumored to have some share of Apple’s display supply chain.
Apple is targeting 90 million iPhone 16 units to be sold. However, the overall OLED display production volume is expected to be 120 million. Samsung could have a lion’s share of 80 million units and LG Display could get 43 million OLED orders.
Samsung Display will supply OLED panels at a similar level to previous models. However, the profit will increase significantly as the proportion of the Pro and Pro Max panels for the iPhone 16 handled by Samsung Display is close to 60%.
Samsung and LG reportedly carrying out their panel production schedule normally. Both display manufacturers could foster their production performance in the second half. Sales related to the iPhone 16 will be reflected in Q3, once OLEDs are delivered.
Samsung is all set to launch the Galaxy M55s in India. The company’s upcoming smartphone was recently listed on India’s BIS certification site. The device has been spotted on BIS with SM-M558B/DS, revealing no other info.
The Galaxy M55s could be an upgraded version of the M55 5G. Previously, it was reported that the M55s uses the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip. This processor offers a peak clock speed of 2.4GHz and comprises an Adreno 644 GPU and 8GB of RAM.
Samsung will launch the Galaxy M55s with Android 14 out of the box. It will be eligible for at least four years of Android upgrades and five years of security patches. WiFi Alliance listing revealed that it supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi connectivity.
The Galaxy M55 comes with a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED+ display with 120Hz refresh rate. It boasts a 50-megapixel primary camera and a 50-megapixel selfie camera. It also supports 45W fast charging, featuring a massive 5000mAh battery.
The launch of the Galaxy M55s is just a matter of time. While the phone’s chipset is the same as the M55, we could see changes in design or any other aspect. I personally guess the F55-like leatherback could be used on the Galaxy M55s.
Samsung hasn’t yet officially confirmed the Galaxy M55s. Based on previous records, we’ve guessed the phone’s name, which couldn’t be final. It’s expected that the company will announce the smartphone in the coming weeks.
Samsung reportedly denied Nvidia’s approval for its HBM3E memory semiconductor. There were reports that the company has received a license to supply its next-gen memory chip to the world’s largest graphics processing unit manufacturer.
A version of Samsung’s fifth-generation high bandwidth memory (HBM) chips, or HBM3E, has passed Nvidia’s, tests for use in its artificial intelligence (AI) processors, three sources briefed on the results said to Reuters.
Reuters recently claimed that Samsung’s 8-layer HBM3E chips cleared Nvidia’s tests for use. However, the Korean tech giant noted that the quality test is ongoing and there has been no change from the stage that was during the conference call last month.
According to BusinessKorea, Samsung refused to confirm Nvidia’s approval for its 8-layer HBM3E. The company reportedly noted that approval by Nvidia for its fifth-generation high-bandwidth memory “is far from being true.”
“We cannot confirm stories related to our customers, but the report is not true.” – Samsung Korea.
Earlier in the day, some media outlets cited three anonymous sources as saying that Samsung and Nvidia are expected to sign a supply agreement soon with 8-layer HBM3E chip deliveries starting in the fourth quarter.
In the past, the company revealed that it supplied HBM3E products to major customers such as Nvidia. Quality tests were being carried out with mass production supply expected to begin in the third quarter.
