Apple is preparing to launch a highly anticipated new iPhone Pro model, but it appears Samsung is taking a cautious approach and scaling back its involvement in supplying displays for this device. This move has opened the door for LG Display to increase its investment and share in the production process.

Samsung’s Cautious Strategy and LG Display’s Aggressive Investment
Apple has selected Samsung exclusively as the display supplier for its upcoming foldable iPhone.
Despite Samsung Display’s long-standing role as a key supplier of high-quality displays for Apple’s iPhones, recent reports suggest Samsung is hesitant about engaging in production for this new Pro model. Industry insiders suggest Samsung might be limiting its involvement or currently negotiating terms behind closed doors.
Samsung’s Focus on Its Own Foldable Devices
One possible reason for Samsung’s cautious stance is the company’s intense focus on its own flagship foldable devices, especially the highly anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 7 expected later this year. With significant resources dedicated to their own product line, Samsung might be unable to allocate sufficient capacity for Apple’s new iPhone Pro production at this time.
