Seeing how LG mobile has been doing badly with the G4 and G5 it would have been disastrous for the LG Display division to divert its limited Amoleds to non profitable LG Mobile division (LG Mobile incurred serious losses for LG in the past year yet the company still made a profit due to its other electronics and appliances). Please note that a screen alone is not enough to sell a phone so LG mobile has to step up their game. Its even more profitable for LG Display to sell screens to Apple, Xaomi etc as these phones may most likely sell better the LGs own mobile devices.
But I guess after the G6 their is once again hope for LG mobile so LG Display probably finally thinks it worth it to invest their high demand Amoled displays in the division.

Anonymous, 20 Apr 2017Those companies buy display for their smartphones, they do not make them. Yes I know, that was my mistake, sorry
Anonymous, 20 Apr 2017Because IPS is superior in most things. OLED's disadvantages outweigh it's advantages.Please. If IPS was superior, companies would be switching TO it, not AWAY from it. AMOLED is brighter, has better color accuracy, has infinite contrast ratio, is much more energy efficient, is thinner and is flexible. IPS is good technology. AMOLED is better technology.

37K is a joke!, 19 Apr 201737,000 screens per month is a joke! This is not enough for a mass-market device!That won't be enough even for pixels...
Wonderful, I like That. I think dropping the 2nd screen will mean that we will have big screen small body like the G6. Great staff there.

Killer-0, 19 Apr 2017What? you crazy, what about HTC Google Nexus One, it uses AMOLED. investigate first.Great! What about their main flagship series? HTC 10? U Ultra? What?

37,000 screens per month is a joke!
This is not enough for a mass-market device!
About eff'in time!
