Company News >> 6.1-inch LCD version of the new iPhone broke the summary 11th,July,2018
                                                There are indications that Apple will release three new mobile phones this fall, including the iPhone X's successor model, the next-generation iPhone X (5.8"), and the big-screen iPhone X Plus (6.4"). The most attractive one is the third one, which is the most detailed 6.1-inch LCD screen iPhone. Because the iPhone X series is a combination of black technology, it is not so close to the people, the target population is also Some are out of the ordinary users, and the 6.1-inch LCD screen iPhone appears as an entry-level machine, which is directed at the majority of mid-end users.

Both the media and the fruit powder are interested in this Apple low-cost iPhone. It may not be as amazing as the new iPhone X, but it is undoubtedly an iPhone that most people are willing to buy.

Design and size

The rumored LCD screen iPhone is between the 5.8-inch iPhone X and the 6.4-inch iPhone X Plus. The supply chain schematic claims that the size of the LCD iPhone is 150.91mm × 75.72mm × 8.47mm (thickness). In contrast, the iPhone X Plus is 157.53mm × 77.44mm × 7.85mm, and the iPhone X is 143.6mm × 70.9mm × 7.7mm.

This means that the LCD iPhone will be slightly thicker than the iPhone X, but smaller than the iPhone X Plus in all sizes. In addition, it seems to be larger than the borders of other full-screen iPhone models. The "bangs" groove for the TrueDepth camera system and face recognition will still be designed.

The basic hardware features of the LCD iPhone may be the same as other iPhones, but it is unclear whether it supports wireless charging. In addition, it will use an aluminum frame, and the current iPhone X and the upcoming iPhone X Plus both use a stainless steel frame. Apple may be for cost-saving reasons, designed to allow users to spend less money and experience the same design as the iPhone X.

screen

In addition to some nuances in design, the huge difference between the 6.1-inch iPhone and other models will undoubtedly be the display.

The new iPhone X and iPhone X Plus continue to feature OLED displays, but the 6.1-inch model will feature an LCD display. This is why everyone has always called this iPhone an LCD iPhone.

According to analyst Guo Mingchi's more reliable statement, the model is equipped with a 6.1-inch TFT-LCD display, which is the same technology used by the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. The unit resolution is between 320ppi and 330ppi, which is lower than the 401ppi of the 5.5-inch iPhone 8 Plus.

The difference in display between OLED and LCD is of course obvious, especially when the two screens are horizontally compared under the same conditions. However, for the average consumer, most people may not care too much about this difference.

According to the current news, the LCD screen of this new iPhone is provided by LG. The new LCD screen technology produced by LG this year is called MLCD, which has been applied to its released G7 ThinQ smartphone.

Where is MLCD better than traditional LCD? A conventional LCD pixel includes three sub-pixels, which are red, green, and blue. Any color can be displayed by mixing and matching. The MLCD adds a fourth sub-pixel, white. This technique can increase the brightness of the pixels, which in turn provides a brighter screen.

In addition, MLCD also supports the full DCI-P3 wide color gamut provided by the iPhone X OLED screen, which has a DCI-P3 color gamut replication rate of 100%, which can display subtle natural colors on a bright screen.

Industry insiders expect Apple to use the MLCD screen on the 6.1-inch iPhone model, the same as LG used on its G7 ThinQ smartphone. This means that compared to the IPS LCD screen, the new MLCD screen can be brighter, more colorful, and consume less power. For those who can't or don't want to buy OLED screen equipment, this will It is a great encouragement.

In addition, there is a contradiction in the report that the device uses a 6-inch display or a 6.1-inch display, but it is estimated that this is due to a slight difference in the top notch.

According to the latest report, the 6.1-inch LCD iPhone will not use 3D Touch technology, and the menus and functions accessed by 3D Touch may depend on long-press gestures.

performance

Apple partner TSMC recently began mass production of 7nm processors for this year's iPhone lineup. The new processor is likely to be the A12, replacing the existing flagship processor A11 Bionic. The A12 processor is necessarily faster, smaller, and more efficient than the 10nm A11 bionic processor.

LCD iPhone will not use the latest A12 processor. It is not easy to say that the previous generation of A11 Bionic chips can save a lot of money, but the performance specifications will make this phone a large distance, but reduce the user's desire to buy.

If Apple wants entry-level users to get a relatively flat experience, then this fall's new models should not be pulled too far apart on hardware-based performance. Of course this is just our guess.

On the RAM side, the LCD iPhone is expected to be equipped with 3GB of memory, which is less than the 4GB of memory expected by the iPhone X and iPhone X Plus. However, due to the lower screen resolution, the performance difference may not be too obvious.

In terms of charging port, the iPhone will not be converted to USB-C port in 2018. This is also a common concern. A recent report shows that the 2018 iPhone Apple still uses the Lightning port, but will put Lightning on the USB-C charging cable. Bundled comes standard, and comes standard with a USB-C power adapter, so you don't have to worry about charging at least for fast charging and new MacBook. It is expected that the LCD iPhone will be synchronized with the other two new machines, which is in line with Apple's promotion strategy.

camera

According to current general predictions, one of the biggest areas of LCD iPhone cost reduction is camera technology. Both the iPhone X and iPhone X Plus in 2018 will use dual-lens technology for portrait mode and portrait lighting, but LCD models are likely to use only a single camera design.

This means that users will miss features such as portrait mode, portrait lighting, and optical zoom. The LCD iPhone camera is expected to be similar to the iPhone 8, with a 12 megapixel main lens, optical image stabilization for photos and videos.

price

By giving up dual camera technology, 3D Touch and OLED screens, Apple can offer a 6.1-inch iPhone in the entry-level market at a more competitive price. The device will be priced between $600 and $700, and it has been said to be under $550.

supply chain

In the supply chain, according to information from Core Intelligence, the baseband chip of the new LCD version of the iPhone will be solely supplied by Intel, further weakening Qualcomm's weight in its supply chain. And continue to use the class board PCB board and LCP antenna design. The cost of these two pieces is much more expensive than ordinary materials, and it is enough to see the tightness of its internal space. Among them, Japan's 揖斐 电 will become Apple's new carrier-type board supplier, Murata still provides Apple's LCP antenna soft board.

The LCD version of the new iPhone will abandon the Hybrid in cell touch design. It seems that the application of the active pen on the mobile phone is coming. Ou Feiguang and Japanese photo printing will provide the touch screen module for the iPhone. Meiya, Dainippon, Shinsei, and Shan State will supply backlights, display panels, driver chips and flexible circuit boards for Apple.

LCD version of the new iPhone will continue to use linear motors, Lixun joined the ranks of suppliers, I hope this linear motor can be cheaper in the future, after all, is 10 times the price of ordinary eccentric motors. At the same time, the LCD version of the iPhone will continue to use the 3D face ID function, and the appearance of the receiver infrared camera module in the assembly of Ou Feiguang seems to be a sign of cost savings. In addition to the VCSEL and the Infrared sensor, the crystal photoelectric addition filter is also applied to the infrared flood light illumination device.
