It is estimated that 15 million pieces, BOE mainly supplies the new iPhone 16e screen
On February 21, China's key component suppliers are currently making significant progress in the global supply chain and occupying an important position by supplying key technology products. According to the latest release of market research firm TechInsights, Apple's new iPhone 16e series uses OLED displays from BOE, China's largest display supplier, and BOE is also the main screen supplier for this phone. TechInsights predicts that BOE will supply more than 15 million flexible LTPS OLED displays for Apple's new iPhone 16e series, becoming the main supplier of Apple's latest iPhone products. This is a major achievement for BOE. BOE has surpassed Samsung Display and LG Display to win the design win for the display of Apple's iPhone 16e series. The Design Win project is a product that has been verified and trial-produced by customers to confirm its performance and reliability before it officially enters the mass production stage. In addition, TechInsights also predicts that the average selling price (ASP) of BOE's display in the iPhone will exceed US$25, which is in a favorable position in the competition. According to reports, Apple released an iPhone 16e on February 19 local time, available in black and white, priced at US$599. According to Apple's official website in China, the iPhone 16e has a 6.1-inch screen size and has the longest battery life of a 6.1-inch iPhone model to date. It uses the Apple A18 chip, which is also used to support Apple's latest iPhone 16 mobile phone model. In addition, the iPhone 16e also uses Apple's self-developed chip C1 for the first time, providing a new solution for cellular connection modems that is different from Qualcomm chips. It also supports Apple Intelligence, using features such as image generation and notification summaries. The iPhone 16e will be available for pre-order at 9 pm on February 21 and will be officially released on February 28.
