Apple seems to be loving to make its displays more colour-accurate every year, implementing new technologies. This year they have already introduced mini-LED displays on[iPad Pro](https://technosports.co.in/2021/04/21/apple-announces-ipad-pro-with-m1-chip-starts-at-rs-71900/), and they look incredible, so Apple seems interested to bring the same displays to new MacBook Pros this year.

However, getting hold of such huge production for mini-LED displays is not an easy task. So the Apple supplier TSMT, who is a key vendor involved in the production of mini-LED displays in the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro, has been able to address technical challenges for the production of mini-LED displays to be used in the upcoming 14 and 16-inch redesigned MacBook Pro models.

As reported by *[DigiTimes](https://www.digitimes.com/news/a20210503PD203.html)*, initially, TSMT had been facing production constraints with the circuit board as well as with the adhesive materials in the mini-LED displays for the upcoming MacBook Pro models. However, after having adjusted its techniques, TSMT has been able to increase its production yield rates to over 95%.

*TSMT is the exclusive provider of SMT services for the recently launched 12.9-inch ‌iPad Pro‌’s mini-LED backlights and is expected to do the same for the two upcoming miniLED-backlit MacBook models, the sources said.*

*Due to issues with PCBs and adhesive materials, TSMT’s yield rates for surface mounting for mini-LED backlighting was not high enough originally, the sources noted. After changing PCB and adhesive material suppliers, TSMT has hiked yield rates to over 95% currently, the sources indicated.*

As we know how color accurate and high brightness displays are with mini-LED backlighting and now MacBook Pros will get a major revamp in display as well as its design. These models are also expected to feature next-generation Apple silicon chips maybe M1X or M2 chip confirmed recently.

Also, it is expected that these redesigned 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models will have a new edge-to-edge display, no Touch Bar and we could see the return of MagSafe magnetic power cable as well as HDMI port and SD card slot. A lot of excitment surrounds the upcoming MacBook Pros and with time we can eventually discover more info or leaks about them.
