Apple’s plans to transition most of its product lines to OLED displays have been widely reported on in the past. A new report from analysts at research firm Omdia, however, sheds more light on Apple’s longer-term road map. In fact, according to this report, Apple is developing a 32-inch external display and a 42-inch external display, both with OLED screens.

Omdia analysts, however, believe that Apple won’t release an OLED MacBook until 2026 in the form of a new MacBook Pro.
As for the iPad, this report mostly aligns with what other sources have said. Omdia believes Apple will release its first OLED iPad models in 2024, starting with the iPad Pro. “The company will almost completely phase our LCDs and mini LEDs at its mobile devices by 2026,” the report says.
