MacRumors says display analyst has confirmed that Apple is developing 11.1-inch and 13-inch OLED iPad Pro models that will come out in the first quarter of 2024.
Other reports/rumors have said pretty much the same regarding the iPads. Apple may adopt a “hybrid” OLED technology in 2024 iPads that could allow for slimmer devices while lowering production costs, according to an Oct. 11 DigiTimes report.
From the article: Taiwan Surface Mounting Technology (Taiwan SMT) will undertake SMT process for mini LED backlighting of 12.9-inch iPad Pro and MacBook Pro, becoming an Apple supply chain maker for the first time, according to industry sources.
In July Apple purportedly confirmed that an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display iPad will be released — in 2024, according to ET News. The article says the updated tablets will boast improved picture quality and be lightweight.
Currently, Apple sells a 12.9-inch mini-LED iPad Pro and an 11-inch iPad Pro with a traditional LCD display, as mini-LED has continued to be reserved for the higher-end iPad Pro model. With the 2024 update, the tech giant could return to feature parity between the two iPad Pro models, notes MacRumors.
