Why Apple's next iPad Pro could look absolutely stunning

We're huge fans of the 12.9-inch M1 iPad Pro, with its mini-LED display offering brighter colours and bolder contrast than the standard LCD version. But if new reports are to be believed, an even more immersive iPad screen could be on the way.

New rumours suggest Apple is working on ways to bring an OLED display to the iPad, with the company said to be trialling "hybrid" panels in an attempt to avoid wrinkling – a common problem with OLED displays. (Don't fancy waiting? Check out the best iPad Pro deals available now.) It's also worth noting of rumours suggesting the new iPad Pro 2022 could launch in days.
