Ross Young is a display industry insider, and has a solid track record when it comes to display related leaks.

Leak #1 - Corning will share the Z Flip 3 UTG business with SCHOTT. This is Corning's first foldable UTG design win. Korea's eCONY will handle the thinning, strengthening and cutting steps.

Leak #2 - There will not be a new Motorola Razr foldable in 2021. Razr fans will likely have to wait till 2H'22.

Leak #3 - The next new foldable after new models from Samsung, Google, Oppo, Vivo and Xiaomi will be from Honor. It will utilize panels from BOE and Visionox. It is Visionox's first foldable design win. It will be in-folding.
