Apple Eyes 95% BT.2020 OLED Displays for iPad Pro, MacBook Pro and iMac

Summary
TrendForce says Apple is developing OLED panels that could cover 95% of the BT.2020 color standard for future iPad Pro, MacBook Pro and iMac models, with rollout expected from 2026 into early 2027.
That would push Apple beyond today’s DCI-P3 displays: sRGB covers about 36% of visible colors, DCI-P3 about 54%, and BT.2020 roughly 75.8%, promising more accurate and immersive images.
The upgrade is limited to OLED because hitting BT.2020 requires new materials and tighter control of color purity, efficiency and power use, including advances such as MR-TADF and blue PHOLED.
Apple still faces supply-chain and patent hurdles before shipping the panels, even as rivals like BOE have shown 95% BT.2020 tandem OLED prototypes and many competitors remain near 80% coverage.
