Sharp to invest 100B yen in OLED production line ahead of next iPhone

The Japanese company Sharp that is well-known for making TVs and displays is currently one of the main LCD suppliers of Apple. Previously there were reports that Samsung will supply Apple with OLED displays and apparently Sharp is reacting to such action.
The manufacturer will reportedly invest 100 billion yen ($864 million in a new OLED production line at Foxconn’s Zhengzhou factory. It would be ready in 2019 which means it won’t be able to supply the alleged iPhone 8.
iPhone 7 Plus with LCD display Foxconn and Sharp are shareholders in SDP (Sakai Display Products) which invested almost half a billion US dollars in a OLED production line that will start full operation in 2018. Sadly that will be too late for Apple’s flagship but looks like they will add diversity to the production.
OLED displays could be a gamechanger for Apple’s design since you can position TouchID sensor, earpiece and camera underneath thus creating true bezel-less device.

Apple shows off Portrait Mode in latest iPhone 7 Plus ad

Holiday season is over and Apple has released its first iPhone ad of 2017. This one focuses on the Portrait Mode feature on the phone.
Portrait Mode, for those not aware, uses the secondary 57mm telephoto lens on the iPhone 7 Plus along with the primary lens to create a 3D map of the object in front of it and then selectively applies a blur filter around its edges to separate the subject from the background. This creates a highly desirable shallow depth of field effect, which is particularly sought after for portrait image, which is what this effect is primarily designed for.
For what it"s worth, the feature is still technically in beta, but Apple probably has enough confidence in it now to make a commercial specifically for it.
