LG and Samsung iPad screen shipment numbers are big

You don’t have to own an iPad or be an Apple fan to know that the gadget is much admired. Other tablets are coming to market that will challenge the iPad, but for now it is the king with the vast majority of the tablet market. The screens for the iPad are made by Samsung and LG.

LG shipped 1.5 million iPad panels in November and that Samsung shipped another 1.2 million iPad screens the same month. In 2011, the report claims that LG Display will produce 35 million iPad panels for the year and that Samsung and a new screen supplier Chimei Innolux (CMI) will each produce 15 million units in 2011.

The exciting part of these stats comes when you add up all the screens that estimated to be made in 2011. If the reports are exact, Apple plans to ship about 65 million iPads in 2011. Apple is expected to ship 16.76 million iPads in 2010.
