The previous "Technology News" quoted the supply chain as saying that Apple's iPhone product line in 2017 will definitely introduce OLED and launch a new 5.8-inch iPhone as the exclusive model for OLED next year. However, a recent report by KGI talked about another OLED deployment route.
KGI's report pointed out that there are two main reasons for the size of the current OLED version of the iPhone, one is 5.8 inches from the upstream supply chain, and 5.2 inches from the downstream supply chain. KGI believes that these two statements may not conflict, because Apple's OLED is actually soft . Based on the new design of the iPhone 8, Apple may have a 5.8-inch OLED panel that is folded and folded, eventually becoming a new design of around 5.2 inches.

Similar to the previous news of Science and Technology News, KGI also believes that in addition to the 5.2-inch OLED, the iPhone product line in 2017 will also introduce the successor of the current 4.7- and 5.5-inch models, just for supply chain considerations. The model will maintain the current LCD screen, and the design changes will be smaller than the OLED version. Similar to the current iPhone 7, the chassis will be changed from aluminum alloy to glass, and the specifications will be worse than the OLED version.
The source of the "Technology News" also pointed out that since Apple's OLED panel is currently raised to 90 million in 2017, it is not excluded that the OLED version of the iPhone may have two models, except for the 5.2-inch OLED model pointed out by KGI. The 5.5-inch, now iPhone 7 Plus, may also be tuned to the OLED version and redesigned . Due to the curved design, the original OLED panel ordered by Apple will be larger, but it will also be reduced by 2 to 3 inches due to the edge. Sources also said that the new 5.2-inch and 5.5-inch OLED models will be equipped with dual lenses .
It is worth mentioning that Samsung's flagship Galaxy S8 next spring is expected to put fingerprint recognition under the screen glass, and adopts 5.8 and 6.2 inch models. Similar to the new design of the iPhone 8 rumor, the Galaxy S8 may also significantly increase the glass area and continue to use the curved surface design.
