Sources say Apple will launch iPad Pro with OLED screen in 2024

CTOnews.com, Oct. 19, display analyst Ross Young said Apple is expected to launch 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro with OLED displays in 2024.

CTOnews.com learned that Young said in a tweet that iPad Pro will be equipped with an OLED display in the first half of 2024, which is not used in the new M2 iPad Pro model released yesterday. Apple used the miniLED display on the 12.9-inch iPad Pro in April 2021, but not on the newly released 11-inch model. Currently, only 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro and 12.9-inch iPad Pro use mini LED screens.

It is reported that compared with miniLED technology, Apple's planned OLED display will include a two-layer series structure with two red, green and blue emitting layers to increase the brightness of the screen. The OLED display is also more power-efficient, which helps extend battery life.

According to a report released by DigiTimes earlier this month, Apple may adopt a "hybrid" OLED technology in the iPad in 2024, which can reduce production costs while making the device thinner.
