Apple recently added to its iPad line of products a smaller iPad Pro 9.7 which is very similar to its bigger 12.9-inch sibling. The iPad Pro is likewise identical to the current iPad Air when it comes to the number of pixels in screen, but the former actually takes a significant step forward with displays, more so, the 9.7-inch iPad Pro released last month.
Display, and its innovation and performance, is always the key element for tablets. The iPad Pro has enhanced its display that keeps up with industry-leading OLED technology, according to Dr. Raymond Soneira, the president of DisplayMate Technologies, which reviewed the new iPad. The new iPad Pro is found to actually have the best device display an LCD tablet has.
The superiority of the new iPad Pro is attributed to several key enhancements that differentiate itself from its peers. The tablet support two color gamuts like what 4k TVs are using, the only Apple product that currently has it, and it comes at an appropriate time.
Apple's tablet likewise has a significant type of coating that is anti-reflective, meaning, it reduces the light reflected from the display by three times than most mobile devices can, the least reflective on the market, Soneira posted on the DisplayMate's website.
Apple has given the smaller iPad Pro a spectacular LCD screen. OLED is the display type to beat, with inky blacks and desirable contrast ratios with their small self-contained, light-emitting pixels, Wired said. OLEDs are very light, thin and have better power efficiency so they are very natural when used with smartphones. So natural that it is in the rumors that Apple will switch from LCD to OLED in a few years.
Along with iPad Pro 9.7 are display functions aimed to improve the user's visual comfort - Night Shift and True Tone. Night Shift changes the display's color balance to reduce the blue light coming from the screen while True Tone automatically alters the color and White Point balance of the display based on real-time gauges of ambient light that falls from the display.
