Apple has asked LG Display to urgently supply LCD panels for iPads, following a surge in orders for tablet PCs and laptop monitors in the wake of the global health crisis, reports
Business Korea.
''Apple has recently asked LG Display to supply LCD panels for the
iPad fast. LG Display is expected to start supplying them as early as June by operating the production lines at full throttle.''
Apple originally cut orders for the second quarter of this year in anticipation of significantly reduced contraction in the market following the health crisis.
However, by March iPad stocks were
reportedly running low in China, as parents bought them to help with e-learning at home in response to school closures.
