BOE hopes to get Apple’s approval within this month. If it can become an iPhone 14 screen supplier, BOE will start mass production of panels for the iPhone 14 in the iPhone 14 series in July or August. That’s a few weeks after its South Korean rivals Samsung Display and LG Display, which are expected to start mass production by the end of the month.

IT House previously reported that, earlier this year, Apple discovered that BOE had changed the design of its OLED panels by expanding the circuit width of thin-film transistors, and Apple told BOE to stop production, which led to the supply of BOE’s iPhone 13 panels starting in February decline.
