The Display of iPad 4 Manufactured by LG Display Instead of Samsung

(GSM Insider) - iPad Mini and iPad 4 were announced at the same Apple special event last month. But the inner parts and components are not the same for sure. The display of iPad Mini and iPad 4 are from different manufacturers.

Yesterday, we reported that the latest tear down of iPad Mini revealed that the display and processor still manufactured by Samsung. However, this is not the case for iPad 4 as its display was manufactured by LG Display. This is the first of many steps that Apple set to move away from relying on Samsung for its components and parts. The tear down also revealed that the NAND Flash in iPad 4 was manufactured by Hynix as Apple no longer ordered NAND Flash from Samsung.
