Rumors of Sharp's involvement in the long term for iPhone displays were revived again Tuesday with assertions in Japan's Nikkan paper that it would be making displays for the 2012 iPhone.

The lower required temperature also improves the power consumption, AppleInsider noted, and the higher aperture ratio produces a richer image.
