Apple execs talk Samsung’s role in creating iPhone Duo display

Apple executives discussed Samsung's role in crafting the iPhone Duo's folding display in a recent interview. MrMobile's Michael Fisher sat down with Rich Dinh, Vice President of Hardware Engineering, and JP Guillou, Senior Director of Display Technology for iPhone, to discuss various aspects of the new device. During the interview, Dinh and Guillou emphasized that Apple designs its components internally, tailoring them to meet specific requirements and challenges.

When asked about the display, Guillou clarified that Samsung does not provide a "pre-cooked shelf" of components but rather works closely with Apple to create a custom display that aligns with Apple's exact specifications. This exchange effectively refuted claims that Apple merely "uses a Samsung display" for the iPhone Duo.
