It’s believed that a new iPhone and iPod Touch due later this year will include an OLED screen made by LG who last year scored a multibillion dollar deal to manufacture display screens for Apple. The current iPhones make use of LED-backlight display. A significant benefit of OLED displays over the current LCD display used in iPhones is that OLEDs do not require a backlight to function. Thus they draw far less power and, when powered from a battery, can operate longer on the same charge. The other advantage of OLEDs is that since they don't need backlight, they can be much thinner than an LCD panel. OLEDs also enable a greater range of colors, gamut, brightness, contrast and viewing angle than LCDs because OLED pixels directly emit light. But the biggest technical problem for OLEDs is the limited lifetime of the organic materials which has also limited their use. Apple will be introducing video recording capabilities in their next generation iPhone and a higher resolution camera. They are also claiming that the next generation iPhone will come with significantly improved hardware to improve the gaming experience on the iPhone thus indicating that it could use multi-core processors.
