Apple will use so-called in-cell technology to keep the screen of the next iPhone thin, the Wall Street Journal reports.According to WSJ‘s sources, three companies are currently hard at work producing the next iPhone’s screen: Sharp, LG and Japan Display.
Most rumors point to the next-gen iPhone having a larger screen than its predecessor — 4 inches, most probably — but in-cell technology, which incorporates the touch screen sensors into the LCD screen itself, will reduce its thickness.
Regardless of the overwhelming amount of rumors surrounding the next iPhone, there’s no official confirmation that it will actually have a larger screen, and no firm facts about its design have been revealed. The next iPhone, which follows iPhone 4S, is likely to be officially revealed in the fall
