@@BlackDragon31000 less blooming than traditional led so its still a plus. anyways if anything wait til microLED comes out, that will compete directly with amoled
@@frankli4124 This. The color subpixels may not experience burn in, but the underlying backlight surely will. Traditional backlight doesn't seem to suffer from this but only because all LEDs lose brightness uniformly.
The fact that they named it "Mini-LED" is that there is a "Micro-LED" version coming out soon in the future with lot more leds for a much more better display.
mini-LED: ☀️ Higher contrast ratio 🔆 Higher brightness 🌑 Deeper blacks 🔋 Power-efficient 💣 Less prone to burn-in than OLED 🛡️ Uses inorganic Gallium nitride (GaN), won’t degrade over time like OLED
Not higher contrast ratio than OLED, not deeper blacks than OLED, not more power efficient than OLED. I thought Burn-in and degradation for a tablet would be a thing for sure, but my Tab S2 is about 4 years old and has neither even with constant heavy use. I'd like some of that crazy LED brightness though.
2.5k dimming zones still has blooming.. could have been 5.5million zones if it was an oled since its pixel level..... oled still has benifits such as instant response time and slightly better viewing angles then ips... also even with the local dimming and dual lcd layer (monochrome), its still an ips panel so the poor native contrast ratio will show up in certain instances...
Except MiniLED has better viewing angles than OLED. OLED loses a lot of brightness and even color when shifted. MiniLED pretty much stays the same on the iPad. And the biggest point is that the iPad Pro is often used for drawing and designing where accurate colors are necessary. The problem with OLED is tho that it needs to be recalibrated every other year or even after just a few months. On a phone that's not an issue. On a drawing machine? It is.
I swear, I hate the edges being dark like that! If I am going to pay this much money for a screen, I don't want to have anything to hang up on...and here we are!
Seems to be an excellent screen, especially on bright viewing condition, though pinpoint backlight accuracy of OLED screens may provide a better dark room experience. Hopefully, MicroLED technology in the near future will fuse those benefits.
I really freaking hope that universal audio or apogee make a thunderbolt interface dock for this that turns it into a high end all in one audio interface and surface control console with faders and knobs. It would look so sick on my desk.
Someone mentioned that the viewing angle on this XDR display is worse than the liquid retina display? And when M1 is under heavy load, the heat causes streaks of uneven brightness to appear on display or backlight.
Man what about the ipad air2020? Is there a teardown for that? Also i wish apple would do this teardowns themselves. Seeing the bones of the machine is great way to showcase tech advancement.
The control circuitry to control 10K LED's separately would be a lot more difficult / expensive to implement. They would have to have a much more complex backlight controller, way more traces going to the backlight array etc. Probably would have doubled the already higher cost of the screen.
The topic is really interesting, but why do you play that background music (so loud). Don't you think that your message is good enough so that you need to overdub it?
I always think why videos like this don't get a million likes but videos from so called 'tech gurus' who simply read out the spec sheet manage to. A twisted world indeed !!
Cool video. I assume MiniLED backlight doesn't require a light guide plate that is used in side-lit backlight. But what about the prism sheet, does it have one?
there is a clear "light spreader" that the leds shine into, tuned to eject more light on the far edges and less on the closer edges to balance the fadeout of the leds over distance. Its like a fiber optic rolled out into a sheet with micro holes in it
No, that's one of the reasons it has a bigger battery. Mainly with HDR content the screen puts out much more light. And that takes more power. You potentially get some power savings IF you have the brightness down very far, and have mainly black on the screen, but in reality this will be weighed out by the overall higher brightness with watching video's or doing other things that keeps the brightness up. Local diming doesnt turn the LED's off completely on a black screen, only dims them. If they turned them off entirely it would make blooming even worse. People seem to be confusing the benefits of mini LED with OLED or Micro LED.
Well they surround all corners, and a layer behind the LCD panel will diffuse the light (spreads the light evenly) meaning it actually is a uniform surface.
It's pretty interesting that Apple uses thermal paste for I think the first time in an iPad (or iPhone) ever. They never used any of this stuff in these devices.
Super cool demo of mini led tech vs. traditional. Great job! AMD (cpu) and Apple (M1 arm SOC and mini led) are really pulling me away from Intel and my beloved Samsung Android devices these days. I'm about to do a total 180 on my whole personal tech ecosystem... Who would've thought.
they could have simply used AMOLED screen. This got it more complicated than already it's. Why Apple doesn't like led screens? is it too expensive even for Apple products?
This is not mini LED display, but backlight. There is mini LED actual displays, like OLED. This naming is just confusing to the public, kinda LCD and LED tvs. All are LCD based.
First, M1 doesn’t need that and second, liquid metal might damage whole board by shortcircuiting. Plus it degrades to some friggin mess. Avoid liquid metal. While it sounds cool, it’s not awesome. And M1 is no overheating Intel.
No shot of the entire internals of the iPad with the plastic covers removed? I can’t tell exactly where the M1 is and I’m trying to figure that out so I don’t put iron sheets (for magnets) directly over it. 😬

All LCDs are “transparent”. That’s how the backlight shines through
@@danielnadeau5741 but you rarely see one without the backlight
This deserves an reassembly as a b/w iPad
This has to be one of the best visual explanations of the mini LED technology.
I agree! I need more videos on how they work. Do you have more you’ve seen?
Very cool demo... But should have shown a little more footage of the actual display and the backlit panel separately with content moving on the screen...

Uuppp
Same. Now I’m just more curious 😅
this is the first time I see local dimming layer in action separated from the display
The dimming of Mini LEDs make cool Ripple effect !

Been waiting for this one!
awesome video :D i love how you showed off the local dimming in operation while disassembled!
I'm loving these local LED displays. They could look almost as good as amoled while having fewer burn in issues
It's still a tradeoff, with this you have a chance of getting blooming
@@BlackDragon31000 and it's also less energy efficient than OLED.
@@BlackDragon31000 less blooming than traditional led so its still a plus. anyways if anything wait til microLED comes out, that will compete directly with amoled
Well, if one part of screen is constantly lit for a long time, I doubt if those LEDs are going to stay the exact same output as the rest of the panel.

Maybe. Micro led is a very new technology.
Nope. OLED is a better option at that point. And rumor has it that iPad will be switching to OLED screens in '22.
Actually it doesn't really affect the quality how much more leds you put in there once you reached a certain amount. It can just get brighter.
Wouldn't micro LED just be OLED
@@Mamo878 I wouldn't count on that. Apple is going to ride out this mini LED for a few years
Remember the ladies that did longer and better teardown? WHAT HAPPENED?
Dude, you just said there are 2500+ squares with 4leds in each. You don't have to count, just do the math!

Only works if they have not hardcoded the screen to the logic board

I was also confuse but
Thank God to vilian_tech got mine full recommended on IG

I love my m1 iPad Pro 12.9. The battery life is very bad though and I’ve only had it for a year
3:12 there are 2,596 local dimming zones, and you said there are 4 LEDs in each dimming zones
2,596 * 4 = 10,384
Yes. It's just a little over 10,000
The display anatomy needed little more explanation
5 minutes of teardown and 5 seconds of the screen working disassembled
2:44 That is so satisfying to watch
Wow! Nice demonstration of mini-LED.
I'm more impressed with the screen heater he put it on to remove the screen.
Never saw an iPad screen like that before
PLEASE DO A SAMSUNG A52 TEARDOWN REPAIR THINGY VIDEO STUFF AS WELL
Currently waiting on my preorder to arrive. Good to know what's underneath the hood.

Still a marvel in my view. The XDR display is new and very cool.
Cool video, explained mini LED very well. keep it up!
The screen is the top reason I bought the 2021 12.9 M1 iPad pro ✌️
And the lack of a mini-LED is the reason why I am *not* getting the new iPad mini 😕
Well done, but I wish I could have seen more content displayed with only the backlights in motion.
Why did ya’ll not show it’s processing innards and different speakers??? It quite different…
I wanted Kay Kay to do the teardown.... or be the teardown 😎
Huh like apple couldn't use amoled in that
You don't need to count all the LEDs. Count the vertical and horizontal, then multiply them.
When can we see a full teardown of the M1 IPad Pro 12.9?
3:33 hey, that’s what happen to my ipad air 4 when the brightness fully down
Man what about the ipad air2020? Is there a teardown for that? Also i wish apple would do this teardowns themselves. Seeing the bones of the machine is great way to showcase tech advancement.

Idk about mini-led but oled hits different
I waited for this video… it was worth it
The new iPad has 4 battery cells. Does it charge faster?
I never saw through an Display before. That's pretty cool to see!
How can the backlight be so homogeneous on the 2020 iPad Pro, while it's on a side?
I feel like DIYPerks did an explanation in a video on this. IIRC it's the one where he turns laptop screens into a fake window.
there is a clear "light spreader" that the leds shine into, tuned to eject more light on the far edges and less on the closer edges to balance the fadeout of the leds over distance.
Its like a fiber optic rolled out into a sheet with micro holes in it
So you tearing this down,where you think its the best location to put a Cooler Fan? Also best location for Iphone 14/15 pro max
Do you think the 11" will get this new display later this year is App,e can resolve their supply chain issues?
Just one question though, do you think the mini-led is more power efficient than the conventional leds from previous ipad pros?
