Although the focus of the leaks on the plans for Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), these are usually your next devices, and we've actually had quite a bit of news about what to expect from the iPad Pro 2018, the latest information allows us to take a look at a future a little further and discover some of the characteristics that we will find in the models that will follow.
Apple is working on developing its own micro-LED screens
It is something that has already been commented on other occasions and that now seems to be confirmed through Bloomberg, which tells us about a secret center in Santa Clara where Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is working on developing its own screens micro LED. We've heard quite a bit lately that Cupertino were considering ditching Samsung's OLED displays on their next iPhones and producing their own panels would certainly be a great solution.
Few doubts at this point, in addition, that the technology micro LED is the future of mobile device screens since, as we have commented on other occasions, it can offer a energy savings of up to 50% and would make it possible to new jump in resolution (Maybe with it 4K tablets could finally stop being a luxury for graphic designers and artists).
The problem, according to Bloomberg, is that progress is far from quick, which is something we also already had. Even for him Apple Watch, which would be the first beneficiary since it is easier to integrate this technology on smaller screens), we are not going to see it this year yet and we must think that the difficulty grows the larger the screen is, which logically should put tablets at the end of the list.
The news that could reach the screen of the iPad Pro 2018
Although not as exciting as the introduction of technology micro LED, iPad Pro 2018 It could come with a few new features also in the screen section, in any case. On the one hand, at this point everyone seems to take for granted that it will arrive with a design in the style iPhone X, with smaller frames and some have recently pointed out that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), I could take advantage of itto grow the screen to 11 inches without the need to increase the dimensions of the joint device.
It is not ruled out either that the screens OLED, theoretically in the form of screens Super Retina, could also reach the iPad Pro 2018, but it should be noted that in this sense there are many more doubts. Despite the fact that at one point it was even thought that they could reach the tablet before the smartphone, the experience with the iPhone X it could have changed things a lot.
One possible difficulty stems from the fact that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), already has enough difficulties to cover the supply of OLED screens only with their smartphones. The other is that the experience with the iPhone X has not been exceedingly good when it comes to sales, since this component has raised the price significantly and there has been greater resistance than expected to accept it. We will have to wait for new news.
