[Gearbest News]On January 3, Gearbestlearned that according to research agency Trendforce, LG Display will become the largest supplier of OLED screens for Apple’s new iPad Pro, surpassing Samsung Display in market share.
According to reports, LG Display plans to mass-produce OLED screens for iPad Pro starting in February 2024, with annual output expected to be 6.2 million to 6.5 million units. Currently, the iPad Pro sold by Apple uses an LCD panel and Mini LED backlight. However, the next generation iPad Pro is expected to switch to an OLED screen, in both 11-inch and 13-inch sizes. In addition, the next-generation iPad Air will be available in 10.9-inch and 12.9-inch versions with LCD screens.
The whistleblower revealed that LG Display is already ahead of Samsung Display, taking the lead in adopting a “double-layer tandem structure” and temporarily taking the lead in the research and development of organic light-emitting materials. Although Samsung Display has faced some yield issues before, they have now been resolved. It is initially estimated that Samsung will supply approximately 4 million OLED screens to Apple.
In addition, rumors about the next-generation iPad Pro also indicate that the device may support MagSafe wireless charging. This will bring a more convenient charging experience to users. According to rumors, the Apple logo on the back of the iPad Pro will be made of glass, while the rest will remain aluminum. This design change may bring a higher quality and uniqueness to the device.
Overall, these news indicate that Apple is gradually shifting its product line to OLED screen technology, while LG Display and Samsung Display are competing fiercely in this field.
