Apple is expected to bring OLED displays to the iPad Air lineup in 2027, with Samsung Display leading the charge as the main supplier.
Expect a 60-hertz refresh rate and a rollout plan that spaces out new releases, so you won't see all models drop at once.
BOE may join Apple as supplier
BOE might join in as an extra display supplier, but Samsung's taking the spotlight for now.
Apple's also giving the iPad mini an OLED upgrade: went on sale on November 6.
This move follows the iPad Pro OLED refresh in 2024, and under CEO John Ternus, Apple seems keen on speeding up how often it launches new devices.
Industry watchers are predicting millions of these new iPads will ship in 2027.
