More recently, the volume of production of small-format OLED-screens start to increase from LG. Two other key supplier of LCD-screens for the iPhone - Sharp Japanese companies and Japan Display - OLED do not release. Therefore, for Apple with its volume of smart phones sales need to diversify supplies.

Production at the new lines will start by June 2018. The point, as we see, very soon. If Apple is really discusses the diversification of supply problems with the OLED Sharp's what we today no one not officially confirmed, is expected to yield iPhone models with OLED displays should be no earlier than autumn 2019.
