Apple is reportedly engaged on a show know-how with as much as 90Hz refresh fee that would make its strategy to upcoming iPad Air fashions. Apple’s iPad, iPad Mini, and iPad Air fashions are outfitted with LCD screens with a 60Hz refresh fee, and the Air lineup may very well be up to date with the next refresh fee. The improved show know-how might reportedly additionally make its strategy to the 24-inch iMac and even Apple’s Studio Show. Apple can also be rumoured to be engaged on equipping the iPhone 17 sequence with 120Hz shows.
Citing an nameless supply that reached out to them, Mike Hurley and Jason Snell, hosts of the Improve podcast (via 9to5Mac) claim that Apple is engaged on a brand new display screen know-how that shall be used to equip the corporate’s next-generation iPad Air with a 90Hz show. The current generation Air model has a 60Hz display screen and Apple’s M2 chip, whereas its successor might arrive with the M3 chip.
The data shared by the supply additionally means that the iPad Air will solely be the primary Apple system to reach with the purported 90Hz show. The corporate will reportedly “engaged on increasing it to different fashions or merchandise like a 24-inch Mac and a next-gen Studio Show.”
Whereas Apple has sometimes restricted entry to shows with a excessive refresh fee to its ‘professional’ smartphone and pill fashions, latest reviews counsel that the corporate might launch the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Slim/ Air with a 120Hz display screen. Most smartphone distributors supply handsets with 120Hz refresh charges at decrease costs than the common iPhone, so it is not shocking that Apple may very well be eager to shut the hole in know-how on its commonplace iPhone fashions.
It is value taking these claims with a grain of salt, contemplating that Apple solely launched its M2 iPad Air mannequin earlier this yr.
