The two companies are also planning to build an advanced OLED production line in the US, targeting high-performance displays for the defense, automotive and medical industries.

JDI did not disclose much else, beyond saying that in addition to the manufacturing hub, it will alsop build an advanced display R&D center in the US, together with OLEDWorks. JDI does seem to emphasize OLEDWorks' multi-stack architecture, which maybe means that this technology will be used in the upcoming production line.

Sources in Korea suggest that BOE struggles with supplying AMOLED panels to Apple's iPhone, and Apple may switch some of its orders to LG Display and Samsung Display.

BOE is supplying LTPS AMOLED displays to Apple's iPhone 14, 15 and 16 devices, but the company faces quality issues and Apple has rejected many of its displays. It is estimated that it will take at least 6 weeks for BOE to fix the OLED quality problems, and meanwhile since the beginning of 2024 it managed to ship only about 7-8 million panels to Apple - from orders of around 40 million units.
