As a result, Apple and Samsung are tough competitors, but the former still rely on the latter’s screens for their products. Moreover, companies struggle not only in the market, but even in the courtroom.
According to the source, Samsung does not trust Apple so much that it even fires its engineers from their businesses. So, in 2017, employees of the “apple” company flew from the United States to South Korea to meet with representatives of the Samsung Display Department. But there, justified by the need to protect the privacy of OLED technology, they were made to realize that they were not happy to see them inside the enterprise or even in an office building. As a result, Apple employees had to video chat with their South Korean colleagues from their hotel rooms.
As journalists noted, Samsung’s technological know-how has given it more influence in its relationship with Apple than any other supplier. A former Apple employee recalls how years ago, even after Apple lowered its demand forecast for the product, Samsung forced the company to accept shipments of hundreds of thousands of additional MacBook screens.
