Samsung to boost supply of OLED displays for iPhone 15 Pro

It would appear that Apple's new iPhone 15 Pro is selling extremely well. While in previous generations, we've seen reports of supply chain cuts, the opposite is taking place with the iPhone 15, with Apple reportedly ordering millions of additional OLED displays from Samsung. 

According to South Korean news outlet, The Elec, Samsung Display is boosting the number of OLED displays it is sending Apple over the fourth quarter, increasing production by five million units. Specifically, it is shipping more of the 6.1-inch OLED displays used for the standard iPhone 15 Pro, indicating that this model was more popular than initially expected.

LG Display also supplies OLED displays for Apple's iPhone 15 Pro models but has apparently not seen a notable increase in shipment forecast. However, there is talk of supply potentially increasing further by another two million units.

Apple is currently expected to sell 80 million iPhone 15 models by the end of the year, a number that includes the standard iPhone 15, the iPhone 15 Plus, as well as the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

KitGuru Says: The latest iPhone does appear to be selling well. I've had my eye on the iPhone 15 Pro for a potential upgrade, particularly because I'm curious to see games like Death Stranding running on it first-hand. Are any of you planning on picking up this year's iPhone, or do you prefer Android overall?
