News & Reviews:   oled display

OLED iPad has been a long-overdue product from Apple. However, this new information is here to shed some light on the timeline when the company is launching one. According to it, Samsung has just started developing a new kind of OLED, and it's said to appear on the 2024 iPads.

CES 2022 is happening next week, but some companies have begun teasing the technology they plan to reveal. One of them is LG, which recently unveiled its first gaming laptop and some interesting displays. As usual, LG has plenty of experimental technology to show, including a transparent display.

Just last week, there was news that Samsung would be providing various brands like Google with ultra-thin glass (UTG). As many of you know, this is what Samsung uses for its foldable smartphones. It's solid proof that these brands aim to make such devices.

If you belong to a Nintendo community on Facebook, there's a good chance that you read plenty of rumours about a new Nintendo Switch console. While there's no official news, Bloomberg got some 'insider' news that the company is planning to upgrade the Switch with better features. Here's what you need to know.

For large electronics companies, it makes sense for them to be able to produce their own components. This is particularly true for Huawei due to the US trade restrictions. The company has been looking into making its supply chain independent and will be manufacturing a variety of in-house components.

While Huawei was able to reveal the latest Mate 40 series, the company's relationship with the US government isn't getting any better which is unfortunate. To make things even worst, several affiliated companies that are associated with Huawei were also barred or withdrawn from doing business.

Virtual reality (VR) has never gone mainstream and there are few obvious reasons. For one, price is a barrier to entry as most VR headsets are expensive. But lack of depth in content and what VR users call the "screen door" effect is another. Fortunately, there could now be a solution for that last part.

The Google Pixel 4a was just launched yesterday and while it's a bit pricey, it has some respectable tech specs. But the dust has barely settled on the launch and already rumours of a new phone are appearing. Now, sources claim Google is working on a new smartphone that will feature a high refresh rate display.

Upon reading the title of this news, you must be thinking "why". But it seems that Apple had to pay Samsung a nice chunk of money as a penalty. Sources claim that Apple had to pay out a hefty USD 950 million (~RM4.06 billion) for not buying enough OLED panels in the Q2 of 2020.

The biggest factor to battery drain these days is the display. Displays tend to drain your battery faster the longer it's left on and it could get warmer over time. But Apple is reportedly looking to fix that for its iPhones, by developing panels with lower temperature and power consumption.
