It will be a model with screen OLED which stands for Organic Light Emitting Diodes that emit their own light. It does not have the classical backlight of the LCD display which imposes greater thicknesses but of an efficient technology from the point of view of volumes and energy consumption which guarantees brilliant results thanks to the use of a sequence of thin organic layers between two conductors capable of generating a bright illumination making the screens thinner and lighter compared to traditional ones.
