Apple is in the advanced stages of testing and proofing the viability of devices with foldable displays. According to a new report, Apple has already distributed the work between suppliers, and has tasked each screen maker with crafting a foldable display for different devices.
This is precisely where it will help Apple succeed if and when it decides to release a foldable iPad. LG is reportedly working with Apple in a screen that will be in close to 11 inches in diagonal when unfurled. Samsung, on the other hand, which is now tasked with making the display for the foldable iPhone, would have no issues with yield as it has been makingvia the utilization of thicker cover glass. This effort is now viewed as not only an answer to the Chinese competition, but also as a grand rehearsal for the foldable iPhone.
