Alleged 2018 iPhone display panel images leak online.jpg

BGR writes about pictures that have appeared online, apparently from a good source, that are said to be of components of a new 6.1-inch iPhone X. The images appear to show several display units on some sort of moulding tray.

They were first posted on Twitter by Mr. White (@laobaiTD), who tweeted “iPhone X 6.1 OLED.”

According to BGR, “Mr.White” is actually usually a very good source when it comes to Apple product news, and he has previously leaked accurate information and images.

So far so good. However, as BGR notes, there’s one big problem with the credibility of Mr.White’s information, which is the reference to a 6.1-inch OLED phone. According to noted Apple expert, previous KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple’s forthcoming 6.1-inch iPhone will be the LCD model, rather than the OLED model, with the two OLED models being 6.5 and 5.8 inches. Of course, that in itself does not mean that the images are not legitimate, especially as BGR seems to be very impressed with Mr.White as a credible source. It’s possible that he simply made a mistake with the name, or that these are in fact images of the LCD iPhone display panel.
