A day after Samsung announced its seventh generation of foldable devices, a report from ETNews reveals that display production for the upcoming iPhone Fold has just begun. More interestingly, it's Samsung Display that has built a dedicated line for Apple's foldable smartphone. According to the publication, the company will be solely responsible for Apple's foldable displays.The factory can produce 35,000 displays per month and uses the 6th-generation OLED panel. With 1.25 million panels per month, or 15 million per year, this should be more than enough to support Apple's goal of selling 6 to 8 million iPhone Fold devices in the first year.Over the past few months, rumors about the iPhone Fold have been growing. Reports suggest Apple may bring back the Touch ID sensor, offer a creaseless display, and use the most premium materials to ensure the foldables early success.Samsung's new foldable has what I really want on the iPhone FoldGalaxy Z Fold 7 in blue.
