I Imaginethe macrumors regular Feb 23, 2013 #2 I've been looking for the reference but can't find it, but as far I am aware they are all LG. I would be very surprised if any were from Samsung as elsewhere Apple look to be starting to removing them from the supply chain where possible.

I don't think you can find that out, I went into System Information and all it would tell me is the resolution, size, etc.. but nothing about the mfg.
