Anticipation is high for Apple’s forthcoming 2024 iPad Pro, which is set to introduce significant enhancements including the M3 chip. A standout feature of the next-generation tablet is the expected transition from mini-LED and LCD displays to cutting-edge OLED screens.
OLED Evolution: Apple’s Display Ambitions
For years, industry speculation has centered around Apple’s demand for innovative OLED screen technology from its vendors. Reports have repeatedly highlighted a two-stack tandem arrangement for the OLED components. Notably, LG has been identified as a key player in developing these specific displays for Apple, with Samsung also being a major contender despite initial hesitations to meet Apple’s design specifications for the iPad Pro.
Dual Advantages: Brightness and Efficiency
OLED screens with two-stack configurations are praised for their superior brightness, stemming from dual light-emitting layers. This design is not only more efficient than its single-stack counterparts but is also speculated to increase the longevity of the device. Additionally, the OLED panels are expected to be slimmer, potentially reducing the iPad’s overall thickness.
The recent CES 2024 event has sparked further intrigue, leading to speculation that Samsung may have subtly revealed the OLED technology that will be employed in the upcoming iPad Pros.
