ipad pro 12.9 2021 screen type

miniLED is an advanced LCD backlight technology - that replaces traditional LED “edge” backlighting and diffuser with a dimmable zoned-array of individual LEDs that are distributed across the back of the LCD panel.

LCD screen technology fundamentally differs from OLED. Each pixel of an OLED screen is a light source - and therefore does not require a screen backlight.

I hope this brief explanation aids understanding of the principal differences between the three broad screen technologies.

Mini LED displays are LED-backlit LCD with Mini LED–based backlighting supporting over a thousand of Full array local dimming (FALD) zones. This allows deeper blacks and higher contrast ratio. Not to be confused with MicroLED.
