Among Apple’s new products are M3-powered MacBooks, new iPad Pro/Air models, and MagSafe accessories. This will be the first iPad with an OLED display. The iPad Pro is expected to cost $1,500 for the 11-inch model and $1800 for the 13-inch model shortly after the leak. According to the latest reports, that might not be the case.
Also, Apple is rumored to be working on a foldable device with a large display.
DigiTimes reports that Apple will increase the price of its new iPad Pro 2024 with an OLED display by $160 (approximately Rs 13,300). Currently, the 11-inch iPad Pro 2022 costs $799 (roughly Rs 66,300). In the event of a $160 or 20 percent price hike, the tablet would cost $959 (approximately Rs 79,600).
This 12.9-inch tablet has a mini-LED display and retails for $1,099 (roughly Rs 91,200). After the $160 price hike, the 2024 model will have a 13-inch screen and cost $1,259 (around Rs 1,04,500). The new OLED panels may be the reason for the price increase, which means an immersive viewing experience for the end user.
LG Display will supply 60 percent of the OLED panels, while Samsung Display will supply the remaining 20 percent. Apple will pay three times more for the new iPad Pro OLED panels than it does for iPhones, according to a report. Additionally, the iPad Pro tablets will be powered by Apple’s 3nm M3 chipset. Premium models could also support MagSafe charging.
