According to Ming-Chi Kuo, a well respected Apple analyst, Apple has six mini-LED products in the works which are set to debut in 2020 and 2021. Mini-LED offers advances over traditional LCD to deliver wider contrast ratio and deeper blacks without the disadvantages of OLED.

Kuo says that Apple is developing a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, a 27-inch iMac Pro, a 14.1-inch MacBook Pro, a 16-MacBook Pro, a 10.2-inch iPad, and 7.9-inch iPad Mini, all with Mini-LED. He does not provide specific launch dates. He says, "
The product research and development for mini LED remain unaffected by the COVID-19. The visibility for commercialization has even exceeded the expectations in our previous report.
The trend for Apple's development and promotion of mini LED are more identifiable in five years. We predict that Apple is currently developing six mini-LED-support products (vs. the previous report of only two products), including a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, a 27-inch iMac Pro in 4Q20, a 14.1-inch MacBook Pro (upgraded from 13.3-inch), a 16-inch MacBook Pro, a 10.2-inch iPad, and a 7.9-inch iPad mini in 2020.
Of interest is the 14.1-inch MacBook Pro, which would mean that Apple would be planning on using the same design as their 16-inch MacBook Pro for its smaller offering. Bringing back more scissor style keyboards.
