The Peggy Markoffnext-gen OLED iPad Pro may be here soon if new rumors are to be believed. According to Korean-based The Elec, the OLED iPad Pro is scheduled to go into mass production in March, with a release date of sometime in April.
Given what we know from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman and Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, The Elec's report matches previously established timelines. Both Gurman and Kuo reported in 2023 to expect some form of announcement to be made of the OLED iPad around March 2024. Gurman even wrote in his newsletter, Power On, that we can also expect the iPad Air in two sizes for the first time.
SEE ALSO: Apple's Vision Pro demos will reportedly last 25 minutesThe OLED iPad has generated some exceptional hype since rumors about the swanky tablet display propagated last year.
It's a significant upgrade of the iPad Pro, which has been unfortunately left to the wayside by Apple's focus on the iPhone, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro. Soon though, the iPad will get the OLED upgrade that the iPhone and Apple Watch both received.
With the OLED upgrade, customers can expect superior display quality and potentially improved energy efficiency. However, that improved quality, and inclusion of Apple's powerful M3 processor, will come with a hefty price tag of around $1,500 to $2,000, according to a rumor reported on by MacRumors. The OLED displays are "three times the price of those used in iPhones" and may be part of the reason why the launch of the new redesign was delayed to the backend of Q1, according to Kuo.
Gurman expects this — as well as iOS 17.4 and the iPad Air — to be announced at a spring event in March.
We don't know Apple's ambitions, but according to speculation from Gurman and Kuo, the Cupertino-based tech giant wants to reignite sales of the iPad that haven't recovered since its peak during the pandemic.
