This well-known analyst is on a roll and has been releasing rumors since the day after the launch of the new iPhone 11 models practically. In this case, Kuo explains in a report for TF International Securities that the new iPad and MacBook models to be released by Apple in late 2020 early 2021 they could carry the new technology in Mini-LED screen.
For this, the analyst explains that LG Display would be the main person in charge of supplying panels to Apple but that it will have the help of other component suppliers such as Epistar, Nichia, TSMT, Zhen Ding and others, as it is a major change and big enough to stay with a single supplier.
Kuo, does not give up in his efforts to filter details of the following teams and is being the main protagonist these days. Now with the news of Mini-LED screens it is warning that Apple could put aside OLED screens on some of your computers, and it is that although it is true that these screens have their clear advantages, they also have disadvantages.
In the case of MacBook with Mini-LED screen, it is said that these would have a few 10.000 integrated LEDs thanks to its small size -lower than 200 microns- so from the 15 to 17 inches of screen that these new MacBook would have would be more than covered. For now we have to wait and see the new 16-inch MacBook Pro that we have been seeing in rumors for a few months and that seems finally to arrive this coming October. What happens later with these screens we will see but it seems that it would be for the most powerful computers and not for all Macs or iPads.
