Apple has decided to adopt a flexible display for one of its new iPhones, set to be released this year, and has ordered sufficient components to enable mass production, according to US reports.
Apple has been studying flexible organic light-emitting diode, or OLED, screens similar to those used by rival Samsung Electronics and has asked its suppliers for prototypes, the reports say.
An Apple spokeswoman declined to comment.
Pundits say Apple’s plans for the iPhone releases later this year will include two models with the traditional LCDs – and a third one with the OLED screen.
