Apple’s plans this year Refresh the entire iPad range in your catalogue.. They started the big update in 2024 with two iPad Air formats with an M2 chip and two versions of the crown jewel, a powerful M4 chip and an iPad Pro. OLED screen Absolutely gorgeous.

According to Apple, The Ultra Retina XDR display of the latest generation iPad Pro is equipped with the most advanced and brightest OLED technology on the market. To achieve this, the Californian company used: two OLED panels in a row on every 2024 iPad Pro.

A few days ago, we explained in depth the new features of the iPad Pro M4 camera module. This time it was Tandem OLED technology’s turn. Let’s see exactly how this revolutionary technology works.

iPad Pro with Tandem OLED: How does this technology work?

The combination of two OLED layers increases the brightness of colors

Offers OLED displays More contrast, greater color accuracy, deeper blacks and greater energy efficiency because each pixel lights up independently. However, OLED displays are slightly less bright than other technologies.

This is where the tandem OLED panels that Apple included in the Ultra Retina XDR screen of the 2024 iPad Pro come into play. It’s on the screen of every iPad Pro. two OLED panels stacked on top of each other to combine the light emitted by both panels.

Tandem OLED panels combine light 1,000 nits shine and even 1,600 nits Maximum brightness in HDR.

There is no OLED display on the market that can match the brightness emitted by the 2024 iPad Pro M4’s tandem OLED panels.

Tandem OLED technology delivers greater brightness without compromising the lifespan of the screen

The problem with OLED displays on the market now is that They are organic. For this reason, they wear out much faster than other technologies. This is why many OLED televisions lose their brightness over the years, and some displays show this annoying effect. burn with a type of burn caused by the images on the screen.

Apple has also solved this problem with Tandem OLED technology. Using two light emitters with less energy It helps prevent the pixels of the OLED panel from wearing out quickly. Since they have two panels, they also offer more brightness. A genius, two birds with one stone.

But it wasn’t Apple that invented this sandwich-shaped structure for its devices’ OLED displays. Actually, This dual OLED technology was available 15 years agoIn fact, 2 years before the first television with LG OLED screen was marketed. Curious, right?

We recently learned that some iPad Pro units are affected by a strange issue that causes some dark blue tones to not display properly on their OLED screens. Fortunately, Apple has assured us that this is a software issue and they are currently working on a solution.
