As anticipation builds for the announcement of the OLED iPad Pro, a recent leak has stirred even more excitement among tech enthusiasts.
Renowned Weibo user, Instant Digital, known for accurate Apple hardware leaks, has disclosed fascinating details about the tablet's display panel.
A day ago, the same leaker shared information that the next-gen iPad Air will be shipped from China. The source said that it will be equipped with an M2 chip.
Matte Finish Option For iPad Pro 2024
According to the leak, Apple is considering incorporating a Nano Texture-like glass surface for the display of the upcoming iPad Pro. This innovation would introduce both glossy and matte finishes for the device, potentially offering users a choice between the two.
Moreover, there's speculation that this feature might extend to the iPad Air lineup as well, though this remains unconfirmed. Nonetheless, if implemented, it could mark a significant enhancement for iPad Pro users.
Why Apple Should Go For Matte Screens For iPad Pro
Matte screen protectors have gained popularity among iPad users due to their ability to enhance drawing and writing experiences, particularly with an Apple Pencil.
As MacRumors stated in its report, the proposed nano-texture glass would integrate blue-light blocking technology, aiming to safeguard users' eyes while minimizing reflections.
Expansion of Nano-Texture Technology
Should this leak prove accurate, it would mark the first instance of Apple introducing a matte display option for the iPad Pro. This move signifies the expansion of Cupertino's nano-texture technology from its Pro Display XDR and Studio Display products to its tablet lineup, showcasing a commitment to innovation and user experience enhancement.
Expect to See Price Increase For iPad Pro
However, the incorporation of such advanced display technology may come at a premium price. For instance, the Nano-Texture feature currently commands an additional $300 for the Studio Display, while the Pro Display XDR carries a $1,000 price increment.
Considering these factors, it's reasonable to anticipate a similar or higher price adjustment for the iPad Pro's matte display option.
As the countdown to the OLED iPad Pro release continues, each leak fuels further anticipation for the device's launch. While details remain speculative until the official announcement, the prospect of a matte display option adds an intriguing dimension to the upcoming tablet.
Last month, Tech Times reported in another story that the iPhone 16 Pro Max will allegedly feature a super periscope camera.
On top of this camera upgrade that some fans want to see, the most premium iPhone model will also come with a better battery life. If this is true, the Cupertino giant will not let down the fans with the unmatched longevity of the upcoming smartphone.
