Apple delayed due to costs
Those waiting to see OLED technology land on MacBooks should be patient. According to rumors, Apple has already planned to supply its MacBooks with this technology only from 2025. why ? Because the apple brand will have some difficulties in terms of supply. The components will be expensive, forcing it to continue negotiations with its suppliers.
According to a report electricityIn South Korea, Apple would have started discussions with its partners (Samsung and LG, as usual) to order such components, but it wouldn’t go as planned. The biggest problem for the California brand, which will therefore be at the level of costs, will be due to the ambitions of Tim Cook, who wants to equip his devices with two-layer emission screens that will significantly increase their life.
Between OLED, mini-LED and micro-LED, Apple seems to be hesitant
OLED technology is already present in the latest Apple Watches and iPhones (iPhone X and later models), but not yet on iPads or MacBooks. according to electricityOLED is slated to arrive on iPads in 2023 and MacBooks around 2025. However, the Cupertuno company appears to be facing other issues that could slow the realization of its projects. Among them, we can in particular cite extended delivery times that are similar to accidents already experienced by the logistics chip.
Apple has adopted the mini LED bulb in the new iPad Pro and MacBook Pro. This technology allows you to get deep blacks and very bright whites, for an impressive display.
On the other hand, micro-LED is an advanced version of OLED. It gives amazing display quality. It is said that Apple has been interested in this technology since 2014, but so far, the project is still under development. As with OLED, there’s a good chance micro-LED will come to the Apple Watch first, then iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks.
