In the current year, Samsung was awarded the orders of an OLED display but, LG is gearing up to pace up its production for OLED smartphone displays with switching its focus on from TVs. According to LG, Chinese manufacturers will also follow the footsteps of Apple and integrate OLED displays, so if it doesn’t bag an order from Apple, it will have to source other targets.
