According to a recent report by research firm Omdia, Apple is set to introduce an iPad Pro with an OLED panel in 2024. It is speculated to arrive in two screen sizes. The 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro models are reportedly on track to incorporate (LTPO) OLED panels. Production for these devices is expected to commence in the first quarter of the upcoming year.

By incorporating an OLED screen, Apple aims to unlock a range of benefits for its iPad Pro lineup. OLED displays offer impeccable black levels, per-pixel light control, and exceptional contrast and HDR capabilities. Additionally, these displays are known for their power efficiency, while including LTPO technology would enable dynamic display refresh rate adjustments, further optimizing energy consumption.

The move to OLED represents a significant upgrade from Apple’s current utilization of Mini LED LCD panels in the iPad Pro series. As a company known for its commitment to display quality, Apple’s transition to OLED showcases its dedication to delivering superior visual experiences.

While the news excites iPad enthusiasts, the report indicates potential delays for MacBooks with OLED displays. Previous rumors had suggested a 2024 launch for OLED-equipped MacBooks. However, according to the latest information, these models are expected to face significant postponements and are now projected to debut in 2027.

Apple has traditionally been cautious in adopting OLED technology, selectively implementing it in iPhone and Apple Watch devices while leaving the iPad and MacBook ranges untouched. Despite the delay in bringing OLED to MacBook models, Apple’s ongoing exploration of OLED displays signals its commitment to staying at the forefront of display technology.

As Apple continues to innovate and refine its product offerings, consumers can anticipate further updates and official announcements regarding the upcoming OLED-equipped iPad Pro models and the future incorporation of OLED displays in the MacBook lineup.
