Apple is reportedly working on designing its own in-house MicroLED displays to use in devices like the iPhone and Apple Watch,
according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The report says that the screens could start showing up on devices as early as next year, following almost five years of planning and development.
Currently, Apple uses displays designed and produced by a variety of vendors — the OLED panels for the iPhone 14s are
reportedly made by Samsung, LG, and BOE.
According to Gurman, Apple will likely still have other companies produce its displays, but they’ll be doing so using Apple’s designs and specifications rather than another firm’s.
