Apple won't release iMacs with larger screens for the time being
Working on Mac Studio / Mac Pro
According to 9to5Mac, with the launch of the new Mac Studio and Studio Display, Apple quietly stopped selling the existing 27-inch iMac, which means that the 27-inch iMac has withdrawn from the market. There have been rumors that Apple has a new "iMac Pro" in development, but the latest reliable sources for 9to5Mac say that Apple has no plans for this for the time being.
According to previous reports, Apple has been working on the next wave of Macs with new M2 chips, including the new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and Mac mini. However, when it comes to the iMac, the company currently has no plans to release a new high-end version of its all-in-one desktop. Of course, Apple's plans could change at any time, after all, Apple often developed different versions of the product but cut it before release. But for now, Apple is working to promote Mac Studio and the upcoming Mac Pro to professional users.
According to what the 9to5Mac saw, Apple is working on a new 24-inch iMac that is expected to launch in 2023, but similar to the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro, it is unlikely to feature Apple's new high-end processor.
In addition, a Bloomberg report last month revealed that Apple may launch a mac (Pro) computer equipped with the new Apple Silicon at the WorldWide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June, and launch more Mac series computers before the end of the year, but analyst Guo Mingxi said on Twitter that Apple's new high-end Mac mini, Mac Pro, and iMac Pro will not be released until 2023.

Samsung will discontinue LCD panels in June
Accelerate the layout of QD-OLED panel business
According to The Korean media businesskorea, Samsun Display will stop producing LCD panels in June, ahead of schedule at the end of the year. At present, Samsung Electronics has submitted the relevant matters to the Korea Financial Supervisory Bureau, and Samsung currently displays the L8-2 production line in Asan, South Korea, which is the only remaining LCD panel production line under its umbrella.
Samsung Electronics has decided to expand its procurement of low-cost LCD panels from China's BOE, Taiwan's AUO and Innolux to enhance its market share and price competitiveness. The price of LCD panels plummeted, which also prompted Samsung Display to decide to end the LCD panel business. According to market research firm DSCC, the average price of a 32-inch LCD TV panel was $38 in January 2022, down 64 percent from $88 in June 2021.
It is understood that since the end of 2021, the company has been manufacturing large QD displays (2200×2500 mm) on the 8.5 generation production line (Q1) in the Asan park. However, its shipments in 2021 were small, with only 720,000 55-inch panels and 1.08 million 65-inch panels, accounting for only 3.6% of Samsung Electronics' annual TV shipments. Accordingly, Samsung Displays is speeding up the transition to the next generation of displays, converting its LCD production line to a QD display production line.
With the vigorous support of local panel factories by our domestic government in recent years, the current price of large LCD panels is no longer as out of reach as before, and the average price of 32-inch panels in January this year was only 38 US dollars, which was 64% lower than last January. In order to strive for higher profit margins, Samsung must not upgrade to the 8th generation quantum dot panel at an accelerated rate.
