Apple has been working on its own micro-LED screens for a long time, but still does not achieve the desired result.
If you were hoping to see an Apple Watch or an iPhone with a micro-LED display within the next two years, then you’re probably going to be disappointed. But to ease your pain, know that you will be able to recharge your Apple Watch at lightning speed.
The micro-LED screen made in Apple, it’s not for now
It’s been many months since we started hearing about an Apple Ultra with a micro-LED display. Earlier this year, journalist Mark Gurman of the media Bloombergalso explained to us that the Apple brand was about to finalize its development for a release in 2024. Remember that this first micro-LED screen has been in the making at Apple for five years, but that it has been delayed due to rising costs and various difficulties encountered during production.
While the second-generation Apple Watch Ultra is making a lot of noise these days, we have every right to wonder if this connected watch will be the first to benefit from a micro-LED screen, as mentioned previous rumours. But obviously, it will still take a lot of patience before we hope to see an Apple device equipped with this screen technology.
The Apple Watch micro-LED not before… 2026?
Decidedly, the development of micro-LED screens seems to give a hard time to the employees of the firm of Tim Cook. This technology, which should have seen the light of day this year or even the following year, would not arrive on the market before 2026. manufacturing process is particularly complex and would therefore be the cause of such a delay.
Here is what she said (reported by the site 9to5Mac): “ The small size of micro-LED components makes displays extremely difficult to manufacture, which can result in both low yield rates and high costs. »
In case you didn’t know, micro-LEDs are a hundred times smaller than traditional LEDs. They can also display a brightness of up to 5,000 nits. The Cupertino company, whose ultimate ambition is to have absolute control over the design of its future products (and therefore to emancipate itself from its partners who supply it with all of its screens) seems to be facing an obstacle of size. We now bet that it will manage to overcome this difficulty before the next three years…

- An XXL and ultra-bright screen
- A truly reinforced shockproof design
- Autonomy of almost 2 days, never seen on an Apple Watch
With the Apple Watch Ultra, the Californian manufacturer enters the already hotly contested sector of sports watches, and for this first, the brand makes a strong impression.
With its reinforced design, an ever more powerful speaker and its ultra-bright and gigantic 49 mm screen, the Apple Watch has never been so redesigned. The action button, fully customizable, will allow divers, mountaineers and all thrill seekers to access the most important application or functionality during their expeditions. The detection of car accidents as well as a high-performance GPS complete a technical sheet that is already as long as your arm.
The Apple Watch Ultra also impresses with its 36-hour battery life, and 60 hours with power saving mode. Even if the connected watch from Apple does less well than many of its competitors, it is still twice as good as a simple classic Apple Watch and should be enough for many buyers.
The Apple Watch Ultra is probably the most advanced connected watch Apple has ever made, but also a real niche product that clearly won’t suit everyone, both for its very thick format and for its price of almost 1,000 euros. To be reserved for the most assiduous athletes who will be able to take advantage of all the services imagined by the brand.
