In fact, the first generation of Apple Watch also faces the same problem of insufficient battery life as most smart watches today, and if you want to improve on the next generation of products, "open source and throttling" should be indispensable, and the OLED display, which is known for its low power consumption Coupled with the dark theme of power saving may be an important part of "throttling." It is worth mentioning that earlier reports stated that LG will become the sole supplier of the new generation of Apple Watch OLED displays, but now the news means that LG's Korean compatriots seem to be joining in.
Not only that, considering that OLED is the general trend to replace LCD, Apple seems to be evaluating the feasibility of equipping the next-generation iPhone with an OLED display, and Samsung may have provided it with a prototype display for initial testing. In addition, in accordance with Apple's strategy of "promoting" in introducing new technologies, whether the OLED display can appear on the iPhone may depend on its performance on the Apple Watch, which is based on the current strong sales of the iPhone. Look, Apple and OLED screen suppliers may have to face awkward production capacity issues. In addition to Samsung and LG, it is reported that Apple is also in talks with JDI to build high-end displays, but the real mass production should take some time.
If nothing else, the iPhone 7 is expected to officially debut in October next year, but there is no definite statement about the update cycle of the Apple Watch. After all, there should not be too many users willing to change a smart watch in a year!
