We've got good news and bad news for iPad Air and iPad mini fans out there.

The good news is, according to a report from market research firm Omdia (via 9to5Mac), Apple plans on adopting fresh new OLED displays for both models of its flagship tablet. The bad news? It might not happen until 2026 at the earliest.

However, there is a sliver of positive news if you don't have the patience for a 2026 OLED iPad . Omdia's research suggests that Apple will launch an OLED iPad Pro in the early part of 2024, significantly reducing the wait time for people who need that sweet OLED magic. This corroborates previous reporting by the likes of Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who typically has a nose for accurate Apple scoops.

The new OLED iPad Pros are expected to come in 11-inch displays as usual, but there is some contention on whether Apple will roll out its typical 12.9-inch tablet or an upgraded 13-inch model for the priciest, top-tier variant.

Omdia claims that Apple is rolling out a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, but Gurman disputes this, claiming that Apple is replacing the 12.9-inch model with a new 13-inch tablet.

Apple first adopted OLED displays in iPhones in 2017 with the iPhone X. It's largely superior to the traditional LCD displays the Cupertino-based tech giant used prior, thanks to better contrast and viewing angles. Just about anyone with a recent iPhone would tell you the displays look real nice. Maybe someday the iPad Air and iPad mini models will share in that niceness, too.
