In first place is Samsung, which will take care of the consumption of up to 56% of all OLED panels produced worldwide this year. In second place is with 15% Apple. Chinese manufacturers Oppo (13%) and Vivo (10%) and other manufacturers who will take very small quantities will share the imaginary leftovers from this year's production.
Apple however, unlike Samsung, it only needs these panels for one model. Samsung offers several models with OLED displays. This imbalance should gradually change as it is assumed that next year Apple implements multiple OLED displays into their facilities. However, this year it will only be iPhone 8, mainly due to limited production. It should not really start until next year. Therefore, we will see more OLED devices only in a year.
