A new rumor suggests the next Apple Watch may be about to drop the OLED screen tech used in the Apple Watch and Apple Watch 2 and instead embrace micro-LED technology for its new smartwatch.<\/p>\n

If Apple dropped OLED tech it would allow them to use the more energy efficient and thinner micro-LED tech.<\/p>\n

Apple would also be able to reduce the size of the wearable and it may boast an improved color gamut, increase in resolution and allow for better brightness levels.<\/p>\n

A long way off<\/h3>\n

In 2015 reports suggested that Apple was developing its own micro-LED tech, which would allow Apple to stop using Samsung for supplying its tech.<\/p>\n

The new report quotes from an anonymous executive with close knowledge of display technology who said, “Apple is working very hard to foster the micro-LED technology \u2026 the company could push the use of new display tech as early as next year.<\/p>\n

“At this point, Apple is the only company who is able to roll out micro-LED, a technology that is still at an early stage of development, and cover the high costs incurred by the low yield rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The quotes come from Nikkei Asian Review, which is a source that has reported Apple leaks that haven’t happened in the past so it may not be an accurate reflection of the next Apple Watch.<\/p>\n

What’s clear is Apple wants to embrace micro-LED tech but it’s unlikely the company will include it on any phones soon, so we won’t see it on the iPhone 7S or even the iPhone 8.<\/p>\n
