Rumor | iPad Pro 11 and 12.9 to be first in line for OLED upgrade in 2024

The latest predictions on Apple's switch to OLED technology purports to confirm that it will indeed start with the iPad Pro - albeit not until 2024. The top-end slate tends to come in 2 display size options, both of which are slated to upgrade to this new screen type next year. Both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch variants might be capable of the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max' latest screen-saving features, as might the inaugural OLED MacBook.

Threads can't be deleted without also deleting your Instagram, but Meta is working on it

Meta announced that it had 'invented' a "new way to communicate with text" about 3 days ago (on July 5, 2023) - which has resulted in millions of users' worth of uptake already. However, as it turns out, the fact that many of them were able to register with their existing Instagram handle implies a potentially crucial drawback of the new social media option. The links between the two accounts means that one cannot be deleted without also dumping the other.
