Bloomberg says:

MicroLED displays are much more difficult to produce than OLEDs, and the stop with it about a year ago. Engineers have made progress and the technology is at an advanced stage, although consumers will likely have to wait a few more years before seeing the results on the market.

The move to build its own screens could help Apple to distance itself from suppliers like Samsung, Sharp, LG Display and Japan Display.

Apple's Secret Testing Unit is in San Jose, according to Bloomberg:

The test and production installation of screens is 5759 square meters, the first of its kind for Apple, located in Santa Clara, California, 15 minutes drive from Cupertino's Apple Park.

There are around 300 engineers who design and manufacture MicroLED screens for use in future products.

Apple is reportedly thinking very seriously about the possibility of manufacturing more hardware. After modifying the design of ARM (system-on-a-chip) SoCs used in previous ones and iPad, from the A6 onwards the company began using fully custom chips designed in-house. Apple is also reportedly designing its own GPU.
