Washington: As Apple is eyeing to enter the smartwatch market with its highly anticipated iWatch, now new report claims that the device will appear this summer.
According to reports the iWatch will feature LG’s OLED curved screen and could debut some way around summer this year.
The outlet says that LG has landed an exclusive deal with Apple to manufacturer the watch’s displays. These panels will be the same plastic OLED ones used in the LG G Flex suggesting that this will be a curved display and will measure 1.52-inches, according to the Techradar.
The same report goes on to mention that LG will begin mass production of these screens in the third quarter of this year, with initial volume set at 2 million, meaning a summer announcement is possibly on the cards.
However the DDaily report has since been pulled, which either means that someone was telling porkies or someone was saying more than they should have been.
This isn’t the first time we’ve heard that Apple and LG were getting cozy for the iWatch display panels. While the latest rumor should be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism, the claims aren’t absurd.
