IPad OLED-Screen Prototypes Expected To Launch In 2024
July 13 news, according to foreign media reports, two years after the iPhone has fully switched to OLED screens, the outside world is also looking forward to Apple’s other hardware products with larger screens to use OLED screens. Suppliers are also preparing for this.
The foreign media said in the latest report that Apple has confirmed that they will launch an iPad with an OLED screen in 2024. Apple confirmed the launch of the OLED screen iPad in 2024, which was first reported by the Korean media. They also said in the report that Apple is working with a number of Korean panel partners to produce the final prototype of the OLED screen iPad.
The Korean media also mentioned in the report that since Apple is the world's largest supplier of tablet PCs, with a market share of more than 40% and an annual shipment of about 60 million units, suppliers will benefit from the switch from iPad to OLED panels. . For the first time, the OLED panel used in Apple's iPad will use the display dry etching process, that is, use chemical technology to remove unnecessary components when making thin film transistor circuit patterns, so the panel will be thinner and lighter.
Apple's iPhone has been using OLED panels since the iPhone X launched in 2017. However, foreign media said in the report that the OLED panels used by the iPhone did not use the display dry etching process, because it was the same as the previous LCD panels. Compared with the iPhone, the iPhone with OLED panel is already lighter. The OLED panel can bring better display effects to the iPad, and the display dry etching process can also make the panel thinner and lighter, but this process will increase the cost of the panel, which may eventually lead to a higher price for the OLED screen iPad.
