Apple plans to broaden its use of OLED displays, incorporating the technology into various devices such as the MacBook Air, iPad Mini, and iPad Air. This move, as reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, follows the successful integration of OLED displays in the iPad Pro, which saw an upgraded M5 model earlier this month, delivering enhanced brightness, superior contrast, and deeper blacks reminiscent of the iPhone and Apple Watch.
Gurman reveals that Apple intends to introduce OLED screens to the iPad Mini as early as next year, a change that may come alongside a price increase of up to $100. However, extending OLED displays to other products could be a gradual process, with an OLED MacBook Air not expected until 2028. The iPad Air is also slated for an OLED upgrade in the future.
Apple’s OLED ambitions extend further, with reports suggesting a touchscreen MacBook Pro with OLED technology could launch in late 2026 or early 2027. Nevertheless, it may take some time before OLED screens become standard across Apple’s non-Pro laptops and tablets.
