Japan Display Inc Chief Executive Mitsuru Homma on Thursday said the screen maker’s “biggest client”, widely understood to refer to Apple Inc , is increasing orders ahead of the predictable launch of a new iPhone this month, according to Reuters.
Homma said weakness in China’s smartphone market, the world’s biggest, amid that country’s broader economic slowdown did not appear to be affecting Apple’s screen orders.
“They’re coming to us with more orders, saying ‘give us more, give us more’. They keep increasing,” he told Reuters in an interview. Reuters Reports
