  • IPS LCD uses traditional backlight. This is still used on older Macs and cheaper iPhones.
  • IPS LCD with miniLED backlight. Apple switched to this feature for iPad Pro models and now uses it on the new MacBook Pro. It allows for deeper blacks and brighter whites and makes a stunning difference.
  • organic light emitting diode. Apple first adopted the feature in the Apple Watch before bringing it to iPhones, starting with the iPhone X. Apple is not yet making this feature available on iPads or MacBooks, but it is expected to be available sometime between 2023-2026.
  • Micro LED. Despite the similar name to miniLED, this is a completely different technology. It's actually a more sophisticated version of OLED. It's brighter, more power efficient, and won't show burn-in. Apple's interest in microLEDs dates back to at least 2014, and while there have been some signs of progress, the technology is still in a very early stage of development. Like OLED, it's likely to appear on the Apple Watch first, followed by iPhones, iPads, and Macs.

Apple aimed to launch its first OLED iPad in 2022, but later said the company had abandoned that plan. Since then, there has been uncertainty as to when the first OLED models would launch, with launches suggested in 2023 and 2024. 随着 LG 准备生产,OLED iPad 传闻得到了可信度提升

OLED iPad Production Preparation

We have received supply chain reports regarding LG and Samsung Display’s plans to supply OLED panels to Apple for use in future iPads. Samsung's role seems less certain, but rival Korean company LG appears to have a more solid position.

LG plans to double the production capacity of its OLED factory dedicated to small and medium-sized displays.

LG Display is currently transferring part of its OLED production equipment from its E5 production line at its Gumi plant in South Korea to its plant in Paju.

Sources said the company is moving some of its tensioners used to deposit OLED materials on panels during production to its E6-4 production line at its P10 factory in Paju […]

LG Display may be doing this to prepare for OLED panels that Apple plans to use for future iPad models, they said […] The factory already has the E6-1 and E6-2 production lines to produce OLED panels for iPhones.

This is important because the device described is very fragile and can easily be damaged during shipping. Moving it is not something you do lightly. This shows that LG is very confident in producing at its Apple-focused factories.
