  • To the naked eye, this display doesn't look all that different from previous generations. And with a resolution of 264 ppi, it's not the first Retina display iPad.

  • All the same, 120 Hz is a blisteringly fast refresh rate for this many pixels, which is probably why it needs four (!) connecting cables. (Its ginormous older brother got by with just two.)

  • The slimmer bezel and True Tone tech also set this display apart—but we're here for the guts. After melting off a couple shields, we find:

  • Intersil ISL24882B TFT-LCD Vref generator/programmable gamma buffer (likely)

  • Parade Technologies DP825 timing controller (likely an upgraded version of Parade ICs we've spotted in previous iPad Pros)

  • Texas Instruments TPS565158 display power management

  • Texas Instruments TMP456 remote/local temperature sensor
