The iPhone 14 series is a highly controversial iPhone lineup coming out of Cupertino over the last few years. While the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are the ones with an actual upgrade, the standard models are more of a minor tweak. The standard models even retain the same old display from the iPhone 13, which seems like a big compromise. Whether you like this display, or miss the faster refresh rates, do you know that your iPhone 14 series is most likely to have a display panel made by Samsung?

Based on a report from The Elec, it is said that 70 percent of the iPhone 14 series devices in the world are using the Samsung OLED panels. It is said that Apple plans to manufacture 120 million units of the iPhone 14 series. Out of them, it is said that there will be almost 80 million units ending up with a Samsung panel. There are over 20 million units of the iPhone 14 series that will use an LG Display. Lastly, the 6 million units of the iPhone 14 series will make use of the BOE OLED panels. Rest of the units are yet to be determined.

iPhone 14 series uses mostly Samsung displays

The report also goes on to say that Samsung and LG will be providing panels of the four iPhone models, which include the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max. BOE will only be manufacturing the OLED display for the 6.1-inch iPhone 14.

Not sure which
mobile to buy?

The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max feature the newest OLED displays with a variable refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. This allows the iPhone 14 Pro series to have an Always On Display that allows the lockscreen to be dimmed when not in use, thereby showing the time, notifications and widget details. 

The display notch also gave way to the Dynamic Island that hides the True Depth camera system. This island expands to show app activity notifications and quick shortcuts to music playback. The standard models still rely on the 60Hz OLED panels with the big display notch on the top.
