According to foreign media reports, Apple has long wanted to use sapphire screens on iPhones. Now, we see that Apple is still working on this. Today, it is reported that Apple will use sapphire screens on the next generation iPhone, and this time it will be handled by Apple’s old partner Foxconn.
Foxconn has always been responsible for the production of Apple iPhones. Recently, there have been reports that Foxconn is very interested in the production of iPhone sapphire screens and has taken the initiative to apply for the job.
A few weeks ago, Foxconn's partner InnoLux invested a large amount of money in a new equipment, which was said to be used to produce iPhone screens. Later, it was reported that it was used to produce sapphire mobile phone panels.
Today, sources once again confirmed the authenticity of the rumors. According to sources, Foxconn will start production of sapphire screens as early as spring 2015. The Apple Watch may be the first to take advantage of sapphire, which is why Foxconn started mass production of sapphire screens in the spring.
