The big reason for sticking with legacy display technology over new, exciting, colorful diodes? Pricing, pricing, pricing.

Whatever this foldable phone will be called, Samsung will aim to be the first to market with it at any supply and any cost.

Both Samsung and LG have display divisions working on bone conduction audio passthrough for upcoming smartphones in 2019.

A double-wide phablet has not been attempted yet, but it looks like China will get its first crack from Huawei in the coming months.

Apple may want to manufacture around 80 million of those three 2018 iPhones, down 20 percent from the initial production target of the 2017 generation.

Following the "so-called budget 6.1-inch iPhone 2018", the top-of-the-line 6.5-inch 2018 iPhone variant has also received a batch of high-quality, high-confidence 3D renders.

Blame it on Apple's need to compromise on price and its unwillingness to compromise on that notch design. Or blame it on something else.

Will the iPhone SE 2 sport an iPhone X-style notch? No one can say for sure, but Chinese screen protector manufacturers seem to think so, while "supply chain sources" tell Forbes contributor Gordon Kelly a different story.

It's the display. The LCD that is never going to be as colorful as an OLED unit and that had a notch at top. The G7 ThinQ is much unlike the V35 ThinQ.

There's more evidence that the Pixel 3 XL will feature a display with a notch in it. But will LG Display do better than last year's effort?

They're still too expensive to source reliably and, with Apple's margin padding, would likely prove unappetizing for consumers to buy.

Last year's iPhone X was clearly only the beginning of Apple's transition to OLED display technology, with two 2018 upgrades likely to be followed by three 2019 iPhones snubbing the LCD tradition.

The consensus from the analysts looking closely into this stuff is that this fall's 6.1-inch model will be more affordable than two more premium models in part because of its LCD screen.

BOE is already reportedly very busy on multiple foldable phone projects, but it looks like Huawei could be working with LG Display in the meantime for a short-term release.

After wowing the wearable world with some impressively affordable smartwatches, China's Mobvoi is almost ready to launch its first "premium" Wear OS device with dual-screen functionality and "unrivaled battery life."

Google and LG have a common goal, working together on a crazy sharp VR OLED display with a record-breaking 1443 ppi count and 120 x 96 field of view.

Just in case the fast-approaching Xiaomi Mi 8 smartphone didn't feel exciting enough, a freshly leaked video appears to confirm both in-display fingerprint recognition and an eye-catching translucent backplate.

The mid-range iPhone expected out in fall of this year is expected to splash a bit more color into customers' lives, much like the iPhone 5c.

That gargantuan 6.5-inch iPhone X (Plus) expected out this fall may not be physically larger than last year's 5.5-inch iPhone 8 Plus, while the next-gen 5.8-incher is expected to "use the same body" as the original X.

Apple contracts with LG Display to import LCDs for use on its iPhones. With the latest LG smartphone, there's a new LCD product on the block that Apple could also utilize.

The LG G7 ThinQ has been unveiled a full eight months after Apple's iPhone X, but apparently, the notch (or second display) was long in the works.

The company is keeping OLED display technology with its more niche-aligned 'V' series releases as opposed to what's intended to be a mass appeal G7 ThinQ.

Thicker glass, a pricier implementation of 3D Touch and more of this in 2019 are in the cards with the latest rumors for the mid-range iPhone of this year.
