Apple Said to Order 22 Million Samsung Panels for First Foldable iPhone

The reported volume points to an ambitious first run near 10 million devices in a still-small foldables market.

Overview

  • ET News said Samsung Display will build 11 million inward-folding internal screens and 11 million external panels for Apple, though the report was later removed.
  • The production plan is described as more than 30% above prior expectations of 6–8 million units for an initial year.
  • Supply-chain reporting characterizes Samsung Display as the exclusive OLED supplier for Apple’s first foldable model.
  • The device is rumored to adopt COE display technology and an under-display camera, and it may forgo Face ID.
  • Leaks point to a book-style design with a 5.35-inch cover screen and a 7.58-inch internal display, with timing and specifications unconfirmed by Apple.
