Analysts expect Apple to release three iPhones this year, but the one getting the most attention is a rumored super-premium model to celebrate the iPhones tenth anniversary. And, for that phone, Apple is expected to change the type of screen the iPhone uses.Heres a quick look at what you need to know about what it means if Apple switches from its current liquid crystal display (LCD) screens to a type of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen called AMOLED.The essential difference between an LCD screen and an AMOLED one is the presence of a backlight.

They also provide more vivid colors, which is a reason that television makers have been pushing OLED in its various forms for their big screens. AMOLED screens, in particular, boast(夸口) even greater control over each individual pixel(像素)which means better contrast(对比度) for the viewer. These screens can also improve battery life because theres no backlight. AMOLED screens can be more energy-efficient when the user is viewing darker subjects, allowing the phone to shut off pixels and stop drawing power.So why hasnt Apple switch to AMOLED yet? After all, Apple petitors such as Samsung and LG already have these screens on their smartphones.AMOLED screens are not cheap to produce. Its also not that easy to make the plex AMOLED screens, which could explain why not most Apple fans expect that only the highest-end phone will have the new screen.And then theres the cost.
