Unveiling the Future: The Dazzling Journey of the iPad Pro into the OLED Era

It feels like the technology created by the biggest brands in the world never stops evolving. With Apple’s latest update, the Cupertino company has just announced the biggest leap forward in portable screens with the 2024 iPad Pro launched at the ‘Let Loose’ extravaganza on 7 May. This new iteration of the tablet will feature the biggest advancement in its history: an OLED display (branded as the infamous ‘Ultra Retina XDR’), as part of the company’s new ‘Tandem OLED’ display. But what is so significant about switching to OLED for the first time in the Apple camp? Let’s jump right in and take a look at the technology behind the new technology, and explore how a number of innovations in the field have come together to enhance the tech landscape of the new iPad Pro.

Understanding the OLED Revolution

What is OLED?

The centrepiece of the incredible new 2024 iPad Pro, and undoubtedly one of its most praised aspects, is its new OLED, or Organic Light Emitting Diodes, display technology. OLED awards the #1 rank to itself thanks to its ability to use organic electroluminescence materials that actually emit their own light when an electrical current is passed through them. In an OLED display, the screen is a grid of millions of individual light sources. Because each pixel is a light source in its own right, the best blacks are achieved by turning off the individual pixels, which are sub-pixels that reside in mini-LEDs arranged in a larger spatial array. In OLED, there is never hope of anything beyond a dark grey.

The Breakthrough of Tandem OLED

Referred to as ‘Tandem OLED’, the iPad Pro’s display actually consists of two OLED screens bonded together, and promises the highest contrast and brightness currently possible (1,600 nits peak). But as per usual, the important question remains: so what? What difference will this make to the general public or even the tech-savvy enthusiast?

The Quintessential Benefits of OLED in the New iPad Pro

1. The End of the 'Halo Effect'

Users of the early iPad Pros with mini-LED displays complained of a ‘halo effect’ or ‘blooming’, which refers to light around bright elements pressed up against a dark background – a distracting counter to the show. OLED in the new iPad Pros puts all that firmly in the rearview mirror.

2. Experiencing True Blacks

Not only do OLED displays eliminate this halo effect by turning off light from individual pixels but they can also create perfect black. This allows for higher contrast images and videos that are more lifelike and engaging.

3. Enhanced Contrast Ratio

With OLED, there’s no need for a backlight, as each individual pixel is lit up at will. This provides a contrast ratio so much better than with mini-LED displays that the image looks vibrant and dynamic. Whether it’s your favourite movie or the most detailed graphic design, physical and pseudo-physical objects feel like they have an energy of their own.

4. Superior Viewing Angles

The screen stays the same from different viewing angles, providing a more consistent viewing experience regardless of where anyone has the centre of their gaze landed on the screen. It’s why OLED technology is poised to surpass the benefits of LCD screens (and even excellent mini-LED screens) for any kind of collaboration or sharing purposes, which makes the new iPad Pro a superb device for both of those applications.

5. Motion Performance Like Never Before

The ability of OLED to switch on and off so quickly from one frame to another means a slicker, more interactive interface – at least for media playback and scrollable screens. OLED TV fast motion content800 x 536: OLED TV because of motion-blur management.

Despite this progress, there is the issue of burn-in associated with OLED displays, though it would, presumably, be mitigated by Apple’s distinctive Tandem OLED design.

Toward the Horizon: Embracing the OLED iPad Pro

The leap to OLED technology comes as we enter this new era of iPad Pro, and the care put into the Tandem OLED display is only the beginning of what will set the standard for portable computing across the years to come, in both beauty and technology.

About Pro: Elevating Standards in Technology

‘Pro’ is a piece of tech industry shorthand that refers to something better than an already-good product. It’s a spectre that establishes a hierarchy on the way to the future The iPad Pro eschews ‘good’ and instead suggests ‘more’ and ‘better’ for a clientele of people who want not just a pad to read the news and send emails, but something that will make them better at those things. The ‘pro’ ethos is a continuation of what Apple has been doing since the beginning; creating new technologies that go beyond the prior limit of what computers could do to establish the future.
