The future 11" and 12,6" iPads that Apple will launch, according to The Elec, will use LG's Gen 6 OLED displays. Tablets will be released sometime before 2025, the year the Macbook OLED will debut.
According to Ming-Chi Kuo, the launch of the first MacBook with an OLED screen will depend on the arrival of the new iPads with an OLED screen of 11 and 12,9 inches in 2024. Check out the leaker's tweet below (a person who reveals information before the official announcements). ):
I think the release date of the OLED MacBook is mainly dependent on the schedule of iPad's adoption of OLED. MacBook would use OLED in 2025 at the earliest if Apple could successfully release 12.9-inch & 11-inch OLED iPads in 2024.
