Apple might not have presented the iPhone 12, of which we definitely know enough, however that doesn’t prevent leakers and the media from circling reports about the organization’s next-generation smartphones, which will be the iPhone 13.
What is the difference between OLED screens with integrated touch surface?
Traditional monitors have no touch screen. Instead, companies are adding this surface above the OLED panel, which increases the screen thickness and the overall thickness of the smartphone.
In addition, screens with a built-in touch screen are more expensive than the classic screens used by most smartphone manufacturers.
Thinner but more expensive iPhone 13
According to the ETNews website, the iPhone 13 will be released in 2021 and will have OLED screens with an integrated touch surface. The report points out that the Cupertino-based technology giant has already ordered the panels it will use in its next-generation smartphones.
Using these screens will allow Apple to create thinner iPhones, but will increase its manufacturing costs. So while the iPhone 12 is expected to be cheaper than its predecessors, the iPhone 13 is expected to be significantly more expensive.
