In May, Apple finally launched a new generation of iPad Air. The company offers some interesting new features in terms of the technical specifications, but, as far as the fluidity of the screen is concerned, nothing has changed compared to previous versions. In fact, while the new iPad Pros have OLED screens with a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, the iPad Air 2024 are content with LCD screens with a rate limited to 60 Hz.

But the good news is that Apple is reportedly offering a small upgrade on the next generation. At least, that’s what’s suggested by a MacRumors article, which relays an anonymous source from the Upgrade podcast. According to this new rumor, the next iPad Air would still use LCD technology, but Apple would offer a higher refresh rate of 90 Hz. As a reminder, this characteristic represents the number of images displayed per second, and is therefore an indicator of the fluidity of animations, videos and games.

Meanwhile, iPad fans may not have to wait long, as other sources suggest the 2025 iPad Airs could launch as early as the beginning of the year. But as usual, since this information does not come from an official source, caution is advised.

Smoother screens for other products

Apple seems to want to make an effort regarding the fluidity of its screens, since according to the new rumor, after the iPad Air, the LCD screen with a refresh rate of 90 Hz should arrive on other products, such as the iMac or the Studio Display screens.

Otherwise, recently, a Korean media outlet suggested that the entire iPhone 17 series could benefit from LTPO technology for the screen. Now, this is a technology that Apple is using to enable the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max to have variable refresh rates of up to 120Hz (while the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus only have 90Hz).

  • Apple has made many improvements on the latest iPad Airs, but they are still limited to a 60Hz refresh rate
  • But on the next generation, Apple would use LCD screens capable of displaying 90Hz refresh rates
  • Then, the same screen could be used on other products, such as iMacs or Studio Displays
