It is reported that Apple plans to introduce at least one new OLED screen iPad Pro model in 2025. These claims, which are frequently brought up in the technology world, gained strength again, especially with a news published by South Korea-based The Elec. It is stated that the company is working on a new device with a design similar to the iPad Pro models introduced last year. However, it is claimed that this new model will include only minor changes compared to its predecessor.
Last year, Apple offered two different OLED screen iPad Pro models to users. One of these devices had an 11-inch screen and a 8,160 mAh battery, while the other model was equipped with a larger 13-inch screen and a 10,290 mAh battery. According to the information shared by The Elec, the new OLED iPad Pro model, which is expected to be introduced this year, will be largely similar to these previous models in terms of size and general design.
The report also states that Apple has started working with component suppliers for the OLED screen iPad Pro. It is stated that the South Korean company LX Semicon is close to an agreement with Apple to supply the display driver chips of the device. In addition, it is reported that mass production of the hardware components of the new device may start in April or May.
It is among the news that Apple will not be limited to just the iPad Pro, but is also working on entry-level iPad models. Another report last week revealed that two new entry-level iPad models that will be equipped with the A17 Pro chip will be introduced. In addition to these models, it is claimed that iPad Air devices with M4 chips will also be released.
These steps by Apple reflect its effort to create a wide range of products that will appeal to different user segments. While entry-level devices are developed for users looking for more affordable options, Pro and Air models stand out with their more powerful hardware and professional use advantages.
Apple’s increasing adoption of OLED display technology in iPad models may reshape competition in the tablet market. OLED displays offer distinct advantages over LCD displays with higher contrast ratios, deep blacks and energy efficiency. This technology means a significant improvement in color accuracy and visual experience, especially for professional users.
Apple’s expansion of this technology into other models along with the new iPad Pro model is considered a step compatible with the company’s strategy to increase its market share. However, it remains a matter of great curiosity in what price ranges Apple will offer its products and what new features it will support.
When will the new iPad Pro be introduced?
Since the company has not made an official statement about the new iPad Pro and other models, the launch schedule is not yet clear. However, information from the supply chain indicates that mass production will start in the first half of 2025. This increases expectations that the devices may be introduced in the second half of the year.
