Isn't Apple working on new screen technology? If so then why bother corning the market on tech which may become obsolete... https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-19/apple-is-...

New tech doesn't mean the old tech is obsolete. It may be great for non-top-end phones... with a huge Chinese market.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

OLED Screen? Zero as far as I know. Only Battery and small quantity of NAND.

Have you heard of the iPhone X? All screens were manufactured in Samsung's flexible OLED foundries

But it is not manufactured in China. Which was what I was referring to.

Before anybody gets drawn in by the clickbait headline, the text of the article is about how China (i.e. large a Chinese vendor) is trying to win Apple's business away from Korean and Japanese vendors. So their sales teams are 'targeting' Apple, which is fine I guess, but not what most people think about when they hear that someone is targeting Apple.

Thanks for clarifying. This kind of clickbait headline should be punished somehow on HN. It distorts the facts and causes confusion and distractions.

Is it OK to flag clickbait?
