The iPhone 17e is expected to arrive in the first months of 2026, and a new report from Korea today shares some more details about its screen. Apparently, the panel will be made by BOE, Samsung Display, and LG Display, with BOE getting most of the orders.

The screen will be identical to the LTPS OLED seen in the iPhone 16e, but it will have thinner bezels. Apple allegedly expects to ship around 8 million iPhone 17e units in the first half of next year.
