We probably won't get an OLED MacBook until we get an OLED iPad first

Image Description

Apple may finally be including OLED displays in upcoming MacBook Pro laptops, according to the latest rumors out there. 

According to long-time Apple insider Ming-Chi Kuo, the switch in display technology would hinge on the iPad’s adoption of OLED. Right now, Apple is one of the only laptop manufacturers that hasn’t introduced OLED displays in any of its products.

In his tweet, Kuo suggests the “MacBook would use OLED in 2025 at the earliest if Apple could successfully release 12.9-inch & 11-inch OLED iPads in 2024.” This does line up with earlier rumors, which also claim that Apple could release both a 10.9-inch and a 12.9-inch iPad Pro using an OLED display.

These previous rumors have hinted at an OLED MacBook Pro for a while, while conflicting reports claim the launch to be either in 2022 or 2025. Regardless of the actual launch date, both rumors seem to point at Samsung being the key to Apple embracing OLED for its laptop display.

However, if Apple does release an OLED laptop in 2022, it would be a perfect match for the M2 chip that we’ve all been waiting for. That would certainly allow Apple to account for a higher display resolution, too. Just imagine — a 4K OLED MacBook Pro.

But as always, this is all mere conjecture so until Apple officially announces anything take it all with a huge pinch of salt.

  • The $15 Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is a super-powerful successor

    Nearly six years after the launch of the miniscule Raspberry Pi Zero, its makers have launched its successor, the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W.

    A couple of years after introducing the $5 Zero, the Raspberry Pi Foundation debuted the $10 Zero W, which added wireless and bluetooth capability to the miniscule single board computer (SBC).

    “But where our larger products have grown steadily more powerful over the years, we’ve never found a way to pack more performance into the Zero form factor. Until today,” writes Eben Upton, CEO of Raspberry Pi Ltd, and creator of the original Raspberry Pi, as he introduced the Zero 2 W.

    Tiny powerhouse

    The new SBC measures 65mm x 30mm and packs a 1GHZ quad-core CPU that Upton claims delivers five times the performance of its predecessor. 

    Priced at just $15, the new board uses the same Broadcom BCM2710A1 SoC die used in the $35 Raspberry Pi 3, downclocked to 1Ghz, along with 512MB of LPDDR2 SDRAM.

    Just like the Zero W, the Zero 2 W offers both wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. In terms of physical connectivity, there's a microSD card slot, CSI-2 camera connector, USB 2.0 on-the-go (OTG) port, a mini-HDMI port, and a 40-pin GPIO header. 

    The Zero 2 W is a drop-in drop-in replacement for the original Zero and Zero W, which also means the new board is compatible with most of the existing accessories for the Zero. 

    The Zero 2 W is currently available in the UK, EU, US, Canada, and Honk Kong. However Upton shares that the device isn’t immune to the global chip shortage, with only about 200,000 units up for grabs this year, and another 250,000 to follow in the first half of 2022.
