It is noted that each matrix will cost Apple in ‘ 71 the dollar. For comparison, the IPS-matrix for the iPhone 7, according to unofficial estimates, cost about $ 40.
At the same time in 2016, Apple ordered 100 million OLED-matrix Samsung Display for smartphones. If you consider that each year the company sells about 200 million phones, Samsung Display will provide screens of at least 80 percent of iPhone 8.
Information on the availability of the iPhone 8 OLED display confirmed CEO Sharp tai Jen-Wu (Tai, Jeng-wu). He noted that the rejection of the use in smartphones LTPS panels is the only way for Apple, if it wants to create innovative products.

From LTPS displays they have low power consumption, high contrast and the ability to create flexible screens.
