The upcoming iPad Pro models are rumored to feature cutting-edge OLED displays, a significant upgrade from the current LCD panels, and iPadOS 17.5 hints at their impending release.
According to firmware analysis by 9to5Mac on Tuesday, the new iPad models, identified as iPad16,3 through iPad16,6, are expected to come in two sizes with Wi-Fi and Cellular options, as usual for iPads.
The shift to OLED technology in the upcoming iPad Pro models is expected to revolutionize the visual experience. With OLED, you can expect deeper blacks, more vibrant colors, and improved contrast ratios, all of which are superior to LCD displays. OLED panels are also known for their efficiency, which could potentially lead to a significant boost in battery life for the iPad Pro models.
The decision to transition to OLED displays in the upcoming iPad Pro models has been speculated for some time. It follows Apple’s last major iPad release in October 2022, indicating a strategic pause to align with technological advancements and ensure a robust supply chain.
