"Apple to claim they invented OLED" ftfy
Even the non-pros have OLED. I think it’s any iPhone with FaceID.
The XR and 11 (non Pro) had LCD. The 12 and 12 Pro have the same exact OLED screen, so that's when they stopped using LCD on the lower models with Face ID.
I think they used Samsung's AMOLED and not LG's OLED. Which are two different techs
Amoled is just a fancy name and filter for oled.
Lol, right?
I love the caption on the top picture:
No, it's thanks to no one else really begin in the tablet market. iPads are frustratingly limited, by iOS. I'd go buy an Android tablet, but they're really aren't many to choose from (and I use an iPad every day).
It's 100% because of their iPads, there are plenty of alternatives but none stand up against the iPad. Everytime a new flagship tablet comes out it is thought to be the iPad killer.
They created the market and dominate it. They're fucks like but they're not wrong here.
It's not like other manufacturers haven't tried (and some still are trying), people just tend to buy ipads instead.
The iPad's popularity is the reason no one else is really in the tablet market anymore. Every OEM was pushing out a tablet in every size about a month ago but failed to make any decent amount of sales to stay relevant.
The Android space is getting more varied again in recent years but I really wouldn't recommend one to an average user over an iPad.
I mean, they're the leader because people are buying them the most.
There's also quite a few Android tablet options. No one is really buying them mostly because they're not great (personally, I really liked the ChromeOS tablets I bought but no one seems to want those either so the options for those are genuinely hard to find any options for).
But if the iPads are basically the best in the market despite not being everything you wish they were, I'm not getting the argument with their point.
Why is the surface even on this list? It's an actual computer and it's like 4 years older than the others? It's not even in the same category.
tf are you talking about? There's only 134 models since january 2022.

Android tablet market is as lively as the Android phone market.
To be nitpicky, they separated out iPadOS from iOS a while back. The two share many features still but iPadOS can do more.
Still not full MacOS level though, even on the m1/m2 iPad Pro models. Disappointingly.
