New iPad Mini Rumored to Have 60Hz OLED Display Ahead of Launch
MacRumors • • general
Key Points:
- The upcoming iPad mini 8 is rumored to feature a 60Hz OLED display using LTPS technology, rather than the 120Hz ProMotion LTPO OLED display found in iPad Pro models.
- This information comes from a Korean tipster who noted that domestic production of the iPad mini 8's display is confirmed as LTPS at 60Hz, contradicting some earlier reports suggesting 120Hz.
- LTPS OLED panels typically have fixed refresh rates and are dimmer than LTPO panels, which allow dynamic refresh rates between 10Hz and 120Hz as seen in iPad Pro models.
- Other expected upgrades for the iPad mini 8 include a faster A20 Pro chip, a relocated FaceTime camera for landscape use, redesigned speakers, and water resistance.
- The iPad mini 8 launch is anticipated in October, possibly during a separate event in the last week of the month, following Apple's home product announcements on October 13.
