6.1" iPhone to launch a month after OLED models due to LCD issues

25 July 2018
A prominent Apple analyst believes that issues in making the LCD have caused a month-long delay in the mass production of the phone.

There's no surprise over here. LG known for making a failed LCDs, Even in their own smartphone, a lot of user complaint about this bleeding LCD and many more, LG always have a quality issues. Apple should be aware over this and sue LG for business damage!

    Too bad. I really want to know how they make the LCD for this iphone without chin. LG LCD is actually very good and maybe a bit too bright. I saw how bright it is on G7 ThinQ. Backlight bleeding can be overcome with black strip around the screen. It wont look pretty but that how other brand do it.

            Anonymous, 26 Jul 2018Truth to be hold that many are intimidated by LG products, ... moreDude Apple pays them as they pay most of the media to not speak ill about their phones or the flaws they have. Samsung and Huawei included. Because they're the ones who are successful so they have to keep a level of high reputation. Even their service centre are bad

              Truth to be hold that many are intimidated by LG products, In fairness LG products are world class and top trendy equality including mobile phones. Now GSMARENA, unless you could present any facts that it is LGs lcd fault and LG will admit it then GSMARENA is accessorry to
              brand reputation sabotage.

                PeterThePanda, 26 Jul 2018The words LG and quality shouldn't be used in the same sent... moreThe words LG and quality should always be used in the same sentence plus the words "is excellent" is the middle.

                    Anonymous, 26 Jul 2018True with oled apple have 300%+ profit and with lcd "only" 200%+.Yeah and with actually 2 OLED phones. Also they want to compensate the loss from the iPhone X, with the preorders of the new ones.
                    Apple wants to sell their garbage with high prices with 0 quality

                      The words LG and quality shouldn't be used in the same sentence unless the words "is garbage" is the middle.

                        KamAbdi, 25 Jul 2018I think this is a lie because hahahahahah LG makes good LCD... moreTrue with oled apple have 300%+ profit and with lcd "only" 200%+.

                          Also it's a way to say that OLED is better than LCD so the the industry can move on on the OLED side. Which pushing and shoving OLED burn ins and colour shifting on our noses when they don't want to fix it.
                          News Flash: LCD is not going to die and some companies will take it with mini-LED back-lit which will more powerful than the OLED

                            I think this is a lie because hahahahahah LG makes good LCD even they make for the iMACs and macbooks and other gaming monitors.
                            Apple is releasing this lie so people directly go to their OLED phones and sell them with more than $1000
                            By the way the with the current iPhone's design, there is no issue it's just marketing.

                              Anonymous, 25 Jul 2018You mean chinese crappy phones that full of issues lol.Are you a idiot? What is the " Chinese phones have anything to do with this or my comments ? " Are you being a racist here because of my username?

                                  Apple's marketing strategy release the highly priced iphone first then after a month make the so called budget phone for $700..

                                    "Issues" being apple prefers you buy the more expensive models first and then w/e.
