Apple recently launched its new-gen iPad Mini with OLED display tech. The company is now expected to bring OLED displays to the iPad Air, which is reportedly set to debut in the first half of 2027.
Apple to launch iPad Air with OLED display in 2027
Until recently, Apple had reserved the OLED display technology for its iPad Pro lineup. That changed last month when the tech giant launched its updated iPad Mini with the OLED display. The new iPad Mini also brought several changes, such as a slimmer and lighter design. It also got the more powerful A20 Pro chip. But regardless, the biggest update was the introduction of the OLED display technology.
Several reports earlier hinted at iPad Air is next in the line to get OLED display. Apple released the tablet’s newer version earlier this year. But it did not get any hardware changes apart from the upgraded chip. Some sources suggested that an OLED iPad Air would arrive in the first half of 2027. Now, a new report from DigiTimes, published on November 10, backs up that timeline.
March could be the most likely launch window
While there are plenty of sources claiming that the new OLED iPad Air would launch in early 2027, there’s no confirmed release date yet. If we go by Apple’s usual launch timeline, the most probable launch window looks like March 2027. The Cupertino tech giant has often used the spring period to introduce new-gen iPads. It is expected to follow a similar pattern with the new iPad Air.
Talking about the specifications, the new-gen iPad Air could get similar upgrades as the 2026 iPad Mini. The OLED display may be limited to a 60 Hz refresh rate. Moreover, Face ID is not expected to be included in the latest model, as it may continue to retain the legacy Touch ID.
