According to an unconfirmed industry report, Samsung could turn to Chinese display maker BOE to produce the Infinity-O panel for the upcoming Galaxy A8s.
What's more interesting is that the panel could be of the LCD variety, instead of OLED, as a cost-saving measure.
BOE is currently tasked with making the 6.39-inch OLED display on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. Speaking of Huawei, we know it will try and beat Samsung to the first smartphone with a hole in the display, so can we guess that its smartphone will also use a BOE-made LCD.
Producing an LCD with a hole is no doubt harder than producing an OLED with one. The camera cutout in the Galaxy A8s' display will reportedly be 6.7mm and it's speculated that the Galaxy S10 will have a smaller 2-3mm cutout.
The Samsung Galaxy A8s will house a Snapdragon 710 chipset, 6GB of RAM and a 3,000mAh battery. It's bound for announcement in January, but some rumors suggest it will be out before the year's end.
