A new rumor indicates that there are several devices that Apple would be considering updating if we talk about the refresh rate of the screen, a very hot topic since the entry-level iPhones are still at 60Hz just like these devices. We are not talking about other devices that the very same iPad Air, iMac, and Studio Display.
If we talk about the latter, which has already been Two years on the market and has not undergone any type of update. Loved by all (or the vast majority) of its users, The Studio Display launched with 60Hz refresh rate and this new rumor suggests that Apple would update it to 90 Hz (at least) along with the other two devices.
As identified by 9to5Mac, The rumor was released anonymously to the hosts of the “Upgrade” podcast so it doesn't have much validity as a rumor since the leaker is unknown and, therefore, his accuracy in other rumors as such. However, he said the following.
I have news about improvements to the display of the next generation iPad Air, the M3. Apple is working on a higher refresh rate on a 90 Hz liquid motion LCD display. They are also working on expanding these panels to other models such as the 24-inch iMac or the new generation of the Studio Display.
This iPad Air refresh is expected in spring 2025, but there have been no other rumors about these screen news. The iMac, which was just renovated a week ago, has not had such an update (but allows 1 external display at 120Hz or 2 at 60Hz) and Nothing is known about Studio Display yet.
We have to take these types of rumors with a grain of salt.; however, There is no lack of desire on the part of many users that Apple forgets about 60Hz on many devices and agrees to offer a screen with a higher refresh rate. Of course, Not all users require it. Therein lies the dilemma.
