iPhone 16 series is rumoured to be announced next month, and ahead of the launch, a report has claimed that the display s for the smartphones have entered mass production. The OLED displays for the iPhone series will be manufactured by Samsung Display and LG Display, as per the report. Apple reportedly expects a higher demand for its handsets, and has accordingly asked the suppliers to manufacture a larger number of units compared to the previous year. An earlier report also claimed that the iPhone 16 Pro models could get larger batteries.

According to a report by South Korean publication ETNews, the Cupertino-based tech giant asked its display suppliers to start the mass production of the display units. Subsequently, Samsung Display and LG Display have reportedly switched to full-time manufacturing of the OLED s.

The manufacturing of the OLED s began last month, as per the report. The reason behind this is said to be Apple's higher requirement of display units. The tech giant reportedly expects a higher demand for the smartphones in the market, likely due to the new Apple Intelligence features.

This year, the company has reportedly tasked Samsung Display with manufacturing 80 million display s, whereas LG Display will be supplying 43 million units of the same. Notably, these two companies were Apple's sole smartphone display manufacturers last year as well.

As per the publication, the major beneficiary of this increased demand will be LG Display. Its supply is said to be increasing by more than 10 million units compared to the previous year. It will reportedly fulfill more than 30 percent of Apple's total display shipment. This increase came after the company reportedly received a delayed approval for the mass production of iPhone 15 series displays and struggled to fulfill the units on time.

Separately, another iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models have 3,274mAh and 4,441mAh batteries, respectively.
