Apple could shake up the computing industry by launching its first OLED MacBook as soon as next year, according to a new report from a reliable tipster.
Apple could launch its first OLED MacBook in 2024 in a move that will fuel a “surge” in OLED laptop sales. It will mark the first time Apple will adopt the tech in its portable computers and could significantly ramp up their display capabilities.
The news comes from Ming-Chi Kuo, an Apple analyst who has a strong reputation for accuracy. Posting on Twitter, Kuo explained that there were numerous factors that have convinced Apple to switch away from mini-LED panels, which are currently used in the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops.
For one thing, Kuo believes OLED tech permits “more diverse form factor design options,” including foldable screens. He added that laptops using OLED panels are thinner and lighter than their mini-LED counterparts, something that no doubt will be an attractive prospect for a company like Apple that prizes sleek designs.
