Apple buys screens and has some of their chips fabbed by Samsung.

It is remarkable, but not uncommon.

In fact all of their mobile CPUs except A8/A8X and A9X are fabricated by Samsung [1]. Lately they are also increasingly using Taiwan Semiconductor.

They don't announce it the same way however. Or at least I've never seen Samsung mentioned by name anywhere on apple.com.
