These panels can run at up to 120Hz, while the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini will still use the LTPS (low-temperature polycrystalline silicon) OLED panels as the iPhone 12 series.

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S21 has been rumoured to come with a 120Hz display as well. The cheaper iPhone 13 models, iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini will have the same 60Hz refresh rate as the current iPhone models.

The Elec further added that all four iPhone 14 models will apparently feature an LTPO OLED screen. While that’s a long way from now till September 2022, Apple is said to be using multiple suppliers for the displays for iPhone 14 models than solely relying on Samsung.

MacBooks To Wirelessly Charge iPhones, iPads, Apple Watch In Future

Apple is said to have filed a patent which will enable MacBooks to wirelessly charge iPhones, iPads, Apple Watch. The upcoming MacBook can wirelessly charge Apple devices in future. The two-way charging capability will allow users to charge their iPhone, iPad, AirPods or Apple Watch via MacBook.

Spotted by Patently Apple, it shows a MacBook charging various Apple devices wirelessly. It will include an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

The patents also mentions that each inspite of having a standardized connector, the devices will require a separate and dedicated power supply to charge.

Currently, MacBooks and iPads do not support wireless charging. The aluminium body does not support the charging technology. The Cupertino-based tech giant is planning to launch the next range of Mac devices with upgraded M2 Apple Silicon. The upcoming MacBooks may support wireless charging and other upgraded tech.
