Apple to Use OLED Displays in Some iPads by 2022
Samsung has been supplying OLED screens to Apple for the Apple Watch and the iPhone. Now, Apple has decided to replace LCDs with OLED displays in some of its iPad models and has reportedly requested Samsung Display and LG Display to make hybrid OLED panels for next-generation iPads. Samsung will start supplying OLED panels to Apple for iPads starting 2022. The hybrid OLED panels in question use rigid glass backplanes and have a TFE protection. Samsung Display reportedly calls such panels ‘Ultra-Thin’ (UT) panels. A Samsung employee said that the company has already started making preparations for the equipment and facilities to manufacture hybrid OLED panels for Apple. It has long been rumored that the company will switch to MicroLED technology for the iPad in 2021. However, the company may use OLED screens on high-end models and Mini LED screens on mid-range models.
