Apple is planning to release high-end iPad and MacBook devices that feature a Mini-LED display between late 2020 and mid 2021, reports TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
The displays will use approximately 10,000 LEDs compared to 576 in Apple's upcoming Pro Display XDR. Each LED is less than 200 microns in size.
The iPad and MacBook models are expected to feature 10 to 12-inch and 15 to 17-inch display. Due to the cost of Mini-LED display components, they will likely be high-end devices such as the iPad Pro and MacBook Pro.
Apple is purportedly planning to shift to Mini-LED to avoid burn-in issues and reduce dependence on Samsung as a supplier. The Mini-LED panels will be supplied by LG Display with Epistar, Zhen Ding, Radiant Opto-Electronics, Nichia, Avary Holding, and TSMT in the supply chain.
Other benefits of Mini-LED include thinner and lighter product design, good wide color gamut performance, high contrast and HDR, as well as the ability to dim specific screen areas.
