The tech was introduced by Apple on the iPad Pro this year. This update aligns with previous hints by analysts Ming-Chi Kuo and Ross Young on X. Kuo Young agreed that next year’s MacBooks will continue to have LCD screens with mini-LED backlighting. Ross @DSCCRoss is an expert on displays (not just Apple products). I think the 2025 MacBook Pro will continue to use the mini-LED. — 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) September 10, 2024 Thanks. I agree with you about 2025 MacBook Pro’s still using MiniLEDs… — Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) September 10, 2024 Apple Display Adoption Roadmap shared by @Jukanlosreve on X.

This would eliminate the notch Apple introduced with its 2021 MacBook Pro redesign, which brought the display closer to the edges but left a cutout for the webcam. MacBook Pros With OLED Displays Won't Have a Notch, Roadmap Shows If these plans turn out to be accurate, the new hole-punch cutout would create more usable screen space. MacRumors notes in its report that this change will resolve the issue of the notch interrupting the macOS menu bar. However, specific design details remain unclear. Some speculate the OLED MacBook Pro could adopt a Dynamic Island-like design, similar to the iPhone. The roadmap also highlights broader plans for Apple’s devices: iPad mini: Could switch to OLED by late 2026. iPad Air: Expected to adopt OLED displays around 2027. MacBook Air: Likely to switch to OLED in 2028 but will retain the notch design. Foldable Device: Apple is reportedly working on a foldable OLED device for release in 2028 or later. These changes indicate how Apple is focusing on integrating OLED technology into its product lineup and promising better display performance with new design possibilities. FAQs Q1.
