Will Apple be forced to delay the launch of its OLED iPhone due to flexible OLED production issues?

A report in China's Economic Daily News suggests that technical issues related to the curved OLED production and the 3D sensing system may force Apple to delay the launch of its OLED iPhone.

Apple has reportedly decided to adopt a flexible OLED display in its 2017 iPhone 8 (or will it be a >$1000 iPhone X?) and yesterday it was claimed that Apple placed an order for 70 million such displays from Samsung Display. Interestingly in February 2017 TrendForce said that Apple decided to use a rigid glass-based OLED as it was not happy with production yields and drop-test results of SDC's flexible OLEDs.
