Apple Executive Comments on New iPad Mini Lacking 120Hz Display
Key Points:
- The new iPad mini features an OLED display but does not support ProMotion, limiting its refresh rate to 60Hz instead of the 120Hz available on iPad Pro models.
- Apple’s VP of hardware design, David Pakula, highlighted that the OLED display offers significantly faster pixel response times than the previous LCD model, reducing motion blur despite the lower refresh rate.
- The OLED screen delivers improved brightness levels, reaching up to 600 nits for standard content and 1,200 nits for HDR, along with a high contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1 and P3 wide color support.
- The new iPad mini maintains a pixel density of 326 pixels per inch and is available for pre-order starting at $699, with a launch date set for November 6.
