Apple is considering bringing tandem OLED displays to its iPhones, a technology that combines two layers of OLED panels to increase brightness and reduce power consumption. The display tech made its debut on the iPad Pro (2024) and has sparked excitement among fans. However, Apple has reportedly opted for a simplified version of the design.
According to a recent report, LG Display has been in talks with Apple about a simplified tandem OLED display, which would include two panels: one with the blue subpixels and another with red and green subpixels. Samsung Display is also reportedly involved in discussions.
Apple typically follows a standard two-year development schedule for its new technologies, suggesting that the earliest iPhone with a tandem OLED display could appear as early as 2028. The feature will likely be exclusive to Pro models, following Apple’s usual pattern of reserving advanced features for higher-end products.
While some fans have expressed skepticism about Apple’s willingness to adopt cutting-edge displays, the news has sparked excitement among others who believe it will drive innovation in the industry.
