Display Supply Chain Consultants CEO Ross Young says Apple has plans to introduce a new 27-inch iMac in 2022 that will feature mini-LED backlighting.
OK, tweeted too early. The 27" MiniLED screen is going in an iMac in Q1'22, not an external monitor. May see a monitor later. Still 24Hz – 120Hz variable refresh…Sorry for the confusion!

Young also tweeted that the 27-inch iMac display will feature ProMotion, to allow for an adaptive refresh rate between 24Hz and 120Hz. Young did not say what the display’s resolution would be, but the current 27-inch iMac has 5K resolution.
24Hz – 120Hz variable refresh and MiniLEDs as well on the new Apple monitor…

Apple currently offers other products that use mini-LED displays, including the 12.9-inch iPad Pro from earlier this year and the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, which launched this week.
