Counterpoint Research expects foldable smartphone panel shipments to rise about 24% in 2026 with roughly 48% revenue growth, aided by Apple’s entry into the foldable market; Q1 2026 shipments fell 7% year over year due to inventory controls and fewer launches. Rumors suggest Samsung Display will be the sole supplier for Apple’s first foldable iPhone, helping drive momentum as in-fold designs move toward mainstream.
A report by Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) has found that panel shipments for the iPhone 14 Plus are 59% higher than they were for the iPhone 13 mini during the same period last year, indicating that there is not much demand for small phones compared to larger ones. However, the iPhone 14 Plus is still not selling as well as the Pro models, with the iPhone 14 Pro Max having the largest share of iPhone 14 series panel shipments. The report suggests that the Plus line may not stick around for long, just like the mini line.
