Apple and LG Working Together To Develop the First Foldable iPhone

The current competition in the smartphone market has reached an all-time high, as tech giants have been working hard to gain the attention and support of the consumers. Apple just recently released their iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, with the iPhone X coming soon to stores.

While the team is busy organizing everything for the upcoming release of the iPhone X, it seems that the tech giant is also preoccupied with something else. Recent reports have revealed that Apple might be planning to release a foldable phone as part of their partnership with LG.

According to The Bell, LG Display recently assembled a team to handle the task of developing a foldable OLED screen, while their sister company, LG Innotek has been reportedly figuring out how to develop the rigid-flexible printed circuit board. Considering fans were expecting them to work with Samsung Display, who is the sole supplier of the iPhone X's OLED, rumors speculate that the partnership was dropped due to tech leaks.
