Sharp is not only providing iPad 3 Retina Display panels but also HDTV screens for the upcoming iTV Apple television, with the much-anticipated push into the living room tipped to arrive on mid-2012. The panel supplier is the beneficiary of Apple attempts to shift dependence away from Samsung a research note cited by Bloomberg, with Apple tipped to take control of a full Sharp production line to produce custom amorphous TFT panels.
Although Apple has always been known for its close involvement with suppliers, the Sharp deal is said to escalate that collaboration to new levels. Apple has supposedly bought its own manufacturing equipment using its hefty reserves of cash to cover hardware supposedly priced between $500m and $1bn and will begin producing iPhone and iPad displays with exclusive space in one of Sharp facilities imminently.
