Young reaffirmed the detail in a tweet saying he had heard rumors about only one model with LTPO, which he said is inaccurate.
I heard some rumors in the industry and the media that there would only be one Apple LTPO model later this year. It can be confirmed that this is not the case. Apple fans can relax. – Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) April 16, 2021
LTPO OLED displays feature a more energy-efficient rear background that allows you to turn individual pixels on and off the screen, better preserving battery life. Young has previously said that LTPO technology is related to 120Hz refresh rates and will need to be implemented before ProMotion can be ported to the iPhone, otherwise the 120Hz refresh rate would run out of time. the battery.
At the moment, several rumors have confirmed both LTPO technology and 120Hz refresh rates for the two Pro-level iPhone 13 models. It was also rumored that the 120Hz ProMotion screens for iPhone 12 models, but Apple did not implement them and instead saved the feature for the “iPhone 13” line.
Samsung will supply Apple with most LTPO OLED screens, and Apple can also get BOE and LG Display screens.
Apple has long offered 120 Hz refresh rates on the iPad Pro line. As with the iPad, the iPhone’s higher refresh rate will make the screen’s content move smoother, cleaner, and more responsive to tasks like reading, playing, and more.
