Samsung’s clients are mostly Samsung.

They build most of the iPhone components like the screens... they use their own screen's from 5 years ago for the new iPhones, thus why the margins are so high on iPhones.

“Samsung’s clients are mostly Samsung”

Yep. but interestingly enough they are having issues with design and manufacturing their own high-end Solution On a Chip (SOC) for their flagship phones. For their Galaxy S line they use Qualcomm chips exclusively for the new upcoming S23. Prior years they were using their own exynos SOC for much of the world except the USA. Samsung was making the Qualcomm SOC’s in their own foundry but had issues with performance and yields. They have now farmed much of that production out to Taiwan’s TSMC foundry.
