description: "Apple has shifted its OLED display orders for iPhones from supplier BOE to Samsung Display due to ongoing manufacturing issues at BOE. These problems, which began in late 2022, have led to the suspension of OLED panel production for the iPhone 15, 16, and 17 models. BOE is now concentrating on stabilizing supplies for the upcoming iPhone 17e, which is set to launch in the spring, and remains the largest panel supplier for that model."

# BOE production problems force Apple to shift iPhone OLED orders to Samsung Display, sources say

Apple supplier BOE has run into fresh manufacturing problems in producing OLED displays for iPhones, prompting Apple to shift orders for millions of panels to Samsung Display, according to South Korean media outlet The Elec. The sources said BOE has yet to resolve production issues that emerged in November and December last year, after irregularities were found in a key manufacturing process. As a result, production of OLED panels for the iPhone 15, 16 and 17 models has been suspended, the sources added. BOE is now focusing on stabilising supplies for the iPhone 17e, expected to launch in the spring, and remains the largest panel supplier for that model. \[IThome, in Chinese\]
