Apple chooses for the first time a South Korean company for the production of the front camera for this year's iPhone models.

Apple had to change its plans immediately

This is because Apple saw itself forced to drop the Chinese company they were actually going to use, apparently due to quality challenges.

 

It is LG Innotek that Apple should have chosen and the company has already started the work of getting ready for mass production in time for the September launch of the iPhone 14.

 

Japanese Sharp, together with LG Innotek, will also supply front cameras.

At the same time, it is reported from South Korea that Apple's plan was not to use LG Innotek as a supplier of the front camera until next year, but apparently had to change plans immediately due to quality challenges.

 

Circumstances have changed since the iPhone 14. Device costs for parts have increased due to several features, such as adding an autofocus feature to the front camera. According to the industry, the unit price of the iPhone 14 front camera has risen almost three times compared to previous models.

 

It has already been announced that the iPhone 14 series could become a record animal in Norway.

Korea IT News reveals that LG Innotek itself can produce the chips for optical image stabilization, several PCBs, and actuators. In the past, they had to buy these parts from others.
