Apple plans to update its entire iPad lineup this year, including the iPad Air 6, iPad mini 7 and iPad 11, as well as the much-talked-about OLED version of the iPad Pro model. **The OLED version of the iPad Pro is available in 11-inch and 12-inch versions9-inch, equipped with an M3 processor, rumored to start at $1500 for the 11-inch version**, 12The 9-inch version starts at a staggering $1,800. According to DigiTimes, this year's OLED version of the iPad Pro pricing increase is inevitable, although the increase may be lower than previously expected, with a maximum of $160 for the base model. For reference, the current starting price of the 11-inch iPad Pro is $799, 12The 9-inch iPad Pro with a Mini LED display starts at $1099. 
Some industry insiders speculate that Apple may eventually set the price of the 11-inch OLED version of the iPad Pro at $949 and 12The 9-inch OLED version of the iPad Pro is priced at $1,199. While the pricing doesn't seem as exaggerated as originally rumored, the increase is not small.
The OLED version of the iPad Pro brings better display quality, such as deeper blacks and improved color accuracy. According to the past, it uses Hybird OLED technology, which means an OLED panel that combines rigid OLED panel and flexible OLED panel technology. It uses a dual-stack structure, which is different from the single-stack structure used by most smartphones today, which not only doubles the brightness, but also quadruples the original lifespan.
Although the manufacturing cost of OLED panels is higher, and most of the new products are related to this, it is not the only reason for Apple to raise prices, the M3 chip uses a 3nm process, which also further increases the overall cost of the iPad Pro. There is news that Apple will release an OLED version of the iPad Pro at the end of next month.
