Apple’s OLED Ambitions: A New Chapter for iPads
They’re set to receive 12.9‑inch and 10.9‑inch panels, just the right sizes for the company’s upcoming iPad Pro lineup.
What’s on the Horizon?
Both are slated to hit the market early 2024.
Words from the Top
Ross Young, Apple’s product manager, confirmed that the company is serious about bringing OLED displays to the iPad Pro range. His announcement has the tech world buzzing—think of crisp colors, deeper blacks, and a touch‑screen that’s almost like a second skin.
Why Is This a Big Deal?
What’s the Deal With the iPad Pro’s New Screen?
Apple’s latest iPad Pro is pulling a classic, “look, I’ll keep the bezel slim, but I’ll just add a dash of tech,” move. The big 12.9‑inch model now sports a mini‑LED panel, while the 11‑inch cousin still wears its trusty LCD skin.
Why the Size Confusion?
Rumours are swirling that Apple might release a larger‑screen iPad Pro in the near future, but the trend seems to be pegged on shallow bezels rather than a bigger bull‑seye. That means:
- The desk wars won’t be about dimensions, but about how thin the border can be.
- OLED enthusiasts will need to keep their eyes peeled – no official OLED sizes yet.
- Apple’s probably looking to stay in sync with the next MacBook Pro releases.
Launch Date Anticipations
Marketing whispers say the new iPad Pro might drop around the same time the MacBook Pro hits the shelves. If that’s true, you’ll likely get a double‑whammy of tech that can:
- Boost your productivity with a screen your eye can actually love.
- Keep your coffee cooler with slimmer bezels so you can actually spot your mug better.
Bottom Line
Apple’s quietly changing the game: the 12.9‑inch mini‑LED boost is a standout, but the 11‑inch LCD familiarity keeps it real for the masses. Keep an eye out, and maybe a few hours when the new models pop – you’ll want to avoid the “oops, I didn’t get the right email” moment.
