I have the first iPad Pro they released, I wonder if there is actually anything significantly improved and the new one is more usable for daily usage and general work.
I still use my 2018 12.9 inch iPad Pro, and that thing is great. I did see the new one yesterday, and was pretty impressed, but I don’t think it’s time for me to upgrade just yet. I also have a new 16 MBP, so I often use the iPad with that, using Apple’s universal control feature. If you have not tried it, you should, it’s great.
"one information I don't have is how the light from one layer goes through the second layer" Man, that's like the only thing i wanted to know from this video lol

@@brawrrrXO bro its the same, the difference is that they were never able to do it until now on RGB-OLED. On WOLED/QD-OLED they could just stack same color OLED on each subpixel, B/B/B on QD-OLED and B/Y/B or whatever on W-OLED. Imagine on QD-OLED you just need to deposite Blue 3x and you would have 3 stack, how complicated would a 2-stack RGB-OLED be? "Literally" stacking 2 oled panel would be very inefficient
I bought the 13” Ipad M4 and compared it side by side with the previous M1 MiniLED and it is astoundingly different! Even though the peak brightness figures are the same the contrast difference is incredible! Also, the pixel response is so much quicker on the OLED vs MiniLED backlight meaning that motion clarity is much better (even though the refresh rate is the same). Truly a huge leap, cannot wait until more displays get his tech!
I remember a number of years back that a TV manufacturer showed off a TV using this same premise at one of the trade shows. Can't remember the name of the maker but it wasn't one of the big ones like Samsung or LG. It was a 4K LCD panel up front, and a 1080p LCD panel under that. The idea was to use the 1080p layer as basically a micro dimming zones layer to improve the contrast of the TV. Basically 2 million dimming zones. Product never made it to market but it was an interesting idea.
/late but you're thinking of the Hisense U9DG, it was known as Dual Cell technology. You had the MiniLED backlight, in front of that was a 1080p grayscale LCD layer that would turn black in spots to limit light from passing or turn white or any shade of gray to let light through in amounts, and then in front of that was a color 4K LCD layer and a QD layer. It worked well enough as the 1080p layer basically made more dimming zones than a standard MiniLED TV would. However they did have a bad habit of desyncing sometimes and it took a lot of power to run. Think it was like 300W. The brightness was also nothing to write home about for an LCD TV. Because the light had to pass through two whole LCD layers and then the QD layer a lot of light was lost so at its maximum the TV could only do 1000nits. So they achieved the black levels of an OLED, but the brightness, while higher on average than OLED's of the time, was still short of other LED TV's. Hisense originally wanted to improve it, get that grayscale layer up to 4K for 1:1 dimming zones essentially, but it was just too costly and not worth it in the end, especially with other more promising panel types on the horizon.
Few mistakes, WOLED uses white OLEDs for subpixels and a colour filter to produce red, green and blue. The ipads display uses 2 regular amoled panels together.

I have been very hard on the iPad Pro (2024). I still feel it’s too powerful. But the display is one area of improvement that makes sense, and the M4 allows that to happen. Thanks for putting a spotlight on it!
I was under the impression that tandem OLED is more power efficient than a single layer OLED. The reasoning being, that getting more light of out a single pixel is a process of diminishing returns. So by having 2 stacked on top of each other, they are running closer to their peak efficiency. I think there is reason to believe that the new OLED screens on the iPad are not that much more power hungry than the previous LCDs or OLEDs on Android tablets.
I think the tandem oled "explained" is a little light on the "explained " part. It could very well be me missing out on explanation details. I'm old after all...
From what LG Financial reports state, Tandem OLED screens have been big sellers to Car manufacturers, so that screen size is prevalent just not in phones/tablet. Also Huwaei/Honor released some phone a few months back with same tandem OLED. Its just the difference of Marketing.

Just returned my new 11” oled iPad Pro M4. Tried it for 3 days and couldn’t cope with the eye strain . Practically ran to our local Staples store and purchased their last 12.9’ iPad Pro , and went on their website and ordered another 11 “ pro gen 4 before they’re all gone . FYI I’m a huge proponent of Oled tv’s , as I own an LG 65” C2 and a 48” c2 , but have no issues. I use blue blocker reading glasses while using computer monitors, so blue light is not the issue , I heard it may be refresh rate or something . All I know is I cannot use these new iPads . I put my iPad gen 3 beside the new iPad Pro M4 , and I actually found the older iPad Pro had better dynamic range imo , which makes no sense, as Oled is a self emitting technology ,but it’s what I noticed in a side by side comparison . Also oled looked washed out a bit , and turning down the brightness did not help , neither did tru tone . It will 😊 be interesting to hear what other peoples experiences are

The Tandem OLED used in the iPad Pro is a double-layer AMOLED, so there is no color filter and other elements like TFT and other layers that scatter light. I will be astonished by a TANDEM AMOLED with MLA 3.0 (Micro Lens array) that boosts brightness. We may see 4000 nits peak HDR brightness in the OLED space soon.
It’s the opposite actually. Both OLED layers can run at lower power to produce the same or increased brightness. This lowers heat and increases OLED lifespan theoretically
very nice thanks for the lesson, OLEDS have been the star of displays for a while its nice to see an innovation that tackles one of its downfalls. Hoping to see tandem tech in gaming monitors which see heavy use from avid gamers like myself!
being a member of this channel is expensive, just ordered the new M4 iPad & bought the Hisense 100U8k and 85” TCL QM8 recently 🤣. My last ipad was the standard 7th gen base model.
lol, surprisingly it's cost me nothing 😀 I have a 10 year-old Sony 3d TV that I don't want to replace but have no choice eventually but to. If we've invested in anything it's iPads for the family but we usually get the cheap ones on sale although my daughter wanted the new one with the pencil (that she never used) and an iPhone 15 so she's costing me quite a bit.
@@techsamurai11 Chase Sapphire Reserve has a great promotion where you can get Apple products for much cheaper using the credit card points. I just picked up the iPad Pro 13” for almost free.
I wouldn’t object if Apple made the big iPad 4k and advertise it the way TVs do supporting hdr10+, Dolby vision, imax enhanced, Dolby atmos etc etc also the rec 2020 + color measurements, higher pixel density, 10 or 12 bit colors -the whole shabang
Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2 also has tandem oled screen claiming 2000 nit brightness. Reviewers measure about 2100 nits. It also has low-reflection matte screen.
Got the iPad Pro with m2. Went to the Apple Store and got my hands on the new m4 iPad Pro …. I bought it, the screen is gorgeous and seems to have smoother refresh rate and feel like butter, oh and it’s so thin! So worth it
@@CapnCrnch330 if you trade your older one in or give it to someone close to you, maybe. Bud price wise, not at all. Especially considering how much the price has dropped in just 2-3 months
Qd-oled and W-oled are not the only types of oled, most small screens are AMOLED, which just uses red green and blue pixels, pretty much like lg's w-oled without the white sub pixel
Please please please, does it use PWM?? TVs don’t but for w.e. Horrid reason phones do. If this doesn’t and it trickles down the phone line up that’d be wonderful! I will be stuck on LCD iPhone until then.
If you could get a tandem OLED screen to hit 1000 nits full screen at 55 in I'd be pretty damn excited for that. Because the TV that has a back plane that is capable of scanning out at 480 frames per second could be really great for BFI and CRT like motion clarity out of an OLED panel. If I could get a panel that could be 350 nits with less motion blur and no need for interpolation we could finally ditch LCD Tech
Apple isn't the first to use Tandem OLED. Honor Magic 6 Pro and Honor Magic 6 Ultimate both use Tandem OLED panels from BOE. Huawei also has at least 1 device with Tandem OLED. LG Display also makes 17-inch Tandem OLED foldable panels.
I imagine there running them in a grate type system so there not actually directly in line therefore both give off there brightness without effecting the other 🤔
How does the light pass through? How is it thinner despite having 2 layers? Who manufactures the panel? Is the power consumption more/less/the same? Who knows, it’s just an EXPLAINED video.
How come they don't make larger 10"x14" / 12"x18" etc. IPad's for artists etc.? That would sure be great competition for those larger weighty digital desktop displays. Since these IPad batteries are so small why not even make bigger plug in batteries 1"x4", 2"x4" or 3"x4" for desktops (or carry along) for longer lasting charge spans? If IPads got that big they could even make raised mounts that fit on your lap so you could sit in a park etc. and do your drawing. What do you say, Caleb?
Samsung has had Super AMOLED panels in their tablets since 2017 with the Galaxy S3 Tab. They are by far the leader and mobile AMOLED panels. I wouldn't be surprised if they're making this tandem panel for Apple. The S9 Ultra tablet has a14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display has a resolution of 2,960 by 1,848 pixels with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, a peak brightness of 930 nits, and an effective aspect ratio of 16:10.
Interesting what's the full window brightness? This could be the screen I have in my Dell Oled laptop - it's 800 nits full window with peaks of 965. It also has a filter that I've never seen before - very effective at antiglare without being matte (green iridescent tint). The screen is glorious and way better than the iPhone 15 and 13 in terms of color.
I’m obsessed with the new iPad Pro. Bought it on day one. The screen is simply stunning. The only thing Apple needs to do now, is sort out the iPadOS… All this power with no where to go.
Thanks Caleb for the video, and I really appreciate that you’re upfront about not knowing the details behind this stuff. Apple likes to market the help out of their ‘magic’ but sometimes, these obscure some seriously tough research and engineering issues that they’ve solved. And trust me, almost every TV need is going to be a monitor or tablet screen nerd too. Nit nerds don’t discriminate.
I don’t know Apple keeps laying off people, Mac sales are dropping like crazy and Tim leaving everything is up in the air with Apple. Anyone else experiencing really bad autocorrect on iOS it seems to be getting worse every version.
I hardly ever use my m2 MacBook Pro for a couple reasons. First 1 my WiFi range sucks so when I do wanna watch RUclips on something other than my iPhone it doesn’t pick up on the back deck and when it does it’s not an oled screen. For 2 that’s all I do with it shop and watch. Is it worth me trading in my M2 MacBook Pro for the top tier iPad Pro if that’s all I do. P.s. I work from my phone that’s why I don’t use my computer, I would be able to get 5g on the iPad
It would not be possible without the M4 chip with both the efficiency and be able drive both layers in perfect sync plus lots of AI magic. M4 is the real hero here. The tech is also coming to Mac in 2025
This video left me more confused than I was before. You say it is WRGB-OLED but then Apple’s own footage shows the the RGB layout we know from the Nintendo Switch instead. And when it comes to the important questions like how the bottom panel‘s light manages to get through or why we didn‘t see this earlier in any other displays you have no answer or have to speculate? Why release this video already then and not finish the research first?
Manufacturers (such as LG) have been showing transparent OLED displays on tradeshows for years. So it takes no genius to figure out that the second OLED layer in the iPad has to be a transparent one. That's the whole magic.
I haven't had an iPad for about 8 years, so I picked up the new iPad Pro last week. It's reaaaaaally nice, the display is nuts.
I have the first iPad Pro they released, I wonder if there is actually anything significantly improved and the new one is more usable for daily usage and general work.

I wish they would just go ahead and make an actual TV. I don’t think LG, Sony or Samsung would be able to compete.
very nice thanks for the lesson, OLEDS have been the star of displays for a while its nice to see an innovation that tackles one of its downfalls. Hoping to see tandem tech in gaming monitors which see heavy use from avid gamers like myself!
being a member of this channel is expensive, just ordered the new M4 iPad & bought the Hisense 100U8k and 85” TCL QM8 recently 🤣. My last ipad was the standard 7th gen base model.
lol, surprisingly it's cost me nothing 😀 I have a 10 year-old Sony 3d TV that I don't want to replace but have no choice eventually but to. If we've invested in anything it's iPads for the family but we usually get the cheap ones on sale although my daughter wanted the new one with the pencil (that she never used) and an iPhone 15 so she's costing me quite a bit.
@@techsamurai11 Chase Sapphire Reserve has a great promotion where you can get Apple products for much cheaper using the credit card points. I just picked up the iPad Pro 13” for almost free.
Woled does not use red green and blue pixels. They are all white pixels and they go through a colour filter.
Impressive.. could this technically be done on monitors ?
Awesome - thank you for this
I have one I can tell you the screen is amazing. I have the Sony a95l qdoled an it blows that away an it’s an awesome tv.
I wouldn’t object if Apple made the big iPad 4k and advertise it the way TVs do supporting hdr10+, Dolby vision, imax enhanced, Dolby atmos etc etc also the rec 2020 + color measurements, higher pixel density, 10 or 12 bit colors -the whole shabang
Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2 also has tandem oled screen claiming 2000 nit brightness. Reviewers measure about 2100 nits. It also has low-reflection matte screen.
Not to meantioned..cheaper,i bought it and happy with it
Those parameters are incredible and only achievable with something like a Sony pro mastering monitor BVM-HX310 which costs $30,000.
Got the iPad Pro with m2. Went to the Apple Store and got my hands on the new m4 iPad Pro …. I bought it, the screen is gorgeous and seems to have smoother refresh rate and feel like butter, oh and it’s so thin! So worth it
Just a reality check: Upgrading from an M2 iPad pro to an M4 is not worth it. Just letting you know.
@@HarryMaguire69it sure is if you like OLED
@@CapnCrnch330 if you trade your older one in or give it to someone close to you, maybe. Bud price wise, not at all. Especially considering how much the price has dropped in just 2-3 months
@@HarryMaguire69 I have the M2 myself and really want an oled iPad, but I’ll be waiting for a few iterations of the tech first.
Tha same happened to niniLED.
It started on an iPad, and now it is in plenty TVs.
Qd-oled and W-oled are not the only types of oled, most small screens are AMOLED, which just uses red green and blue pixels, pretty much like lg's w-oled without the white sub pixel
You forgot to mention that Honor Magic 6 RSR used Tandem OLED before Apple.
But cudos to apple to use it in tablet and solve power efficiency issues.
Please please please, does it use PWM?? TVs don’t but for w.e. Horrid reason phones do.
If this doesn’t and it trickles down the phone line up that’d be wonderful!
I will be stuck on LCD iPhone until then.
If you could get a tandem OLED screen to hit 1000 nits full screen at 55 in I'd be pretty damn excited for that.
Because the TV that has a back plane that is capable of scanning out at 480 frames per second could be really great for BFI and CRT like motion clarity out of an OLED panel.
If I could get a panel that could be 350 nits with less motion blur and no need for interpolation we could finally ditch LCD Tech
1000nits full screen would be a total waste of energy and require sunglasses to watch. Just make it more efficient at this point.
I sold all the old iPad and upgraded to a new one. A very decent price with significant display . Well done Apple
"Introducing the new Triple-Layer OLED (Tri-OLED) TV from Samsung!"
"New from LG, the Quad-OLED G7! Bring your sunglasses!"
What’s wrong with this guy😢
That is amazing from Apple well done
Apple isn't the first to use Tandem OLED.
Honor Magic 6 Pro and Honor Magic 6 Ultimate both use Tandem OLED panels from BOE.
Huawei also has at least 1 device with Tandem OLED.
LG Display also makes 17-inch Tandem OLED foldable panels.
I imagine there running them in a grate type system so there not actually directly in line therefore both give off there brightness without effecting the other 🤔
Will this solve the burn in issues with OLED?
What about AMOLED displays? How do they compare against these tecnologíes?
How does the light pass through? How is it thinner despite having 2 layers? Who manufactures the panel? Is the power consumption more/less/the same? Who knows, it’s just an EXPLAINED video.
0.1mm thin, so it is an incredible display. And also, they can do flexible displays for automotive industry and also foldables with Tandem OLED tech
Does tandem OLED mean that the new iPad pro could technically be capable of 3d since it’s two stacked displays?
How come they don't make larger 10"x14" / 12"x18" etc. IPad's for artists etc.? That would sure be great competition for those larger weighty digital
desktop displays. Since these IPad batteries are so small why not even make bigger plug in batteries 1"x4", 2"x4" or 3"x4" for desktops (or carry along)
for longer lasting charge spans? If IPads got that big they could even make raised mounts that fit on your lap so you could sit in a park etc. and do
your drawing. What do you say, Caleb?
Display on honor magic 6 rsr
Samsung has had Super AMOLED panels in their tablets since 2017 with the Galaxy S3 Tab. They are by far the leader and mobile AMOLED panels. I wouldn't be surprised if they're making this tandem panel for Apple.
The S9 Ultra tablet has a14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display has a resolution of 2,960 by 1,848 pixels with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, a peak brightness of 930 nits, and an effective aspect ratio of 16:10.
Interesting what's the full window brightness? This could be the screen I have in my Dell Oled laptop - it's 800 nits full window with peaks of 965. It also has a filter that I've never seen before - very effective at antiglare without being matte (green iridescent tint). The screen is glorious and way better than the iPhone 15 and 13 in terms of color.
You did this whole video without going to see one of the iPads for yourself? How strange.
I’m obsessed with the new iPad Pro. Bought it on day one. The screen is simply stunning. The only thing Apple needs to do now, is sort out the iPadOS… All this power with no where to go.
It's already available on LG Gram Fold & HP Spectre Fold.
And some premium EV cars
Thanks Caleb for the video, and I really appreciate that you’re upfront about not knowing the details behind this stuff. Apple likes to market the help out of their ‘magic’ but sometimes, these obscure some seriously tough research and engineering issues that they’ve solved.
And trust me, almost every TV need is going to be a monitor or tablet screen nerd too. Nit nerds don’t discriminate.
I don’t know Apple keeps laying off people, Mac sales are dropping like crazy and Tim leaving everything is up in the air with Apple. Anyone else experiencing really bad autocorrect on iOS it seems to be getting worse every version.
Agree! AutoCorrect is terrible.
cant wait to see when nano texture scratches 😂
I hardly ever use my m2 MacBook Pro for a couple reasons. First 1 my WiFi range sucks so when I do wanna watch RUclips on something other than my iPhone it doesn’t pick up on the back deck and when it does it’s not an oled screen. For 2 that’s all I do with it shop and watch. Is it worth me trading in my M2 MacBook Pro for the top tier iPad Pro if that’s all I do. P.s. I work from my phone that’s why I don’t use my computer, I would be able to get 5g on the iPad
Samsung has been putting OLEDs in tablets for years
True. Did you watch the video? Tandem OLED != OLED
Tandem oled is different than Samsungs Amoled
@@iMaxPatten I did but it sounds like it's just a bit brighter
@@DisasterMaster3K true Samsung must not be able to get as bright for this to be a big deal.
It would not be possible without the M4 chip with both the efficiency and be able drive both layers in perfect sync plus lots of AI magic. M4 is the real hero here. The tech is also coming to Mac in 2025
Tandem OLED what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😂
This video left me more confused than I was before. You say it is WRGB-OLED but then Apple’s own footage shows the the RGB layout we know from the Nintendo Switch instead. And when it comes to the important questions like how the bottom panel‘s light manages to get through or why we didn‘t see this earlier in any other displays you have no answer or have to speculate? Why release this video already then and not finish the research first?
It's funny that Apple is acting like it's brighter than the previous Mini LED iPad or the iPhone
This is why you don't make a rushed video on tech you don't understand, way too many mistakes in this.
Fantastic!
Apple has some of the best products in their iPad line so good
What Apple pulled off is impressive. This will definitely drive more innovation and push the prices downward.
Manufacturers (such as LG) have been showing transparent OLED displays on tradeshows for years. So it takes no genius to figure out that the second OLED layer in the iPad has to be a transparent one. That's the whole magic.
so a bright tv is a better tv? what is this brightness war about? i will never understand
