Could Apple be planning to use OLED display technology in some of its upcoming devices? While the fruity company prefers to use IPS panels for its devices, that doesn’t mean that Apple is totally deaf to the benefits of OLED displays. The reason we say this is because Apple has filed three patent applications related to OLED displays that could be used in smartphones, tablets, computers or televisions. The patents don’t go into technical details of the touchscreen systems aside from the OLED layers but it does offer layouts for touch-actuated sensors, signal routing, substrate, coatings and other details. Of course, a patent application is far from confirmation that Apple is planning to adopt OLED technology in its products, but it might be a step in the right direction and gives the company more options.
