With mass production of the M1X MacBook Pro line expected to take place in the third quarter of 2021, Apple will obviously not want any unnecessary delay resulting from the lack of crucial components, since a new report claims the company is expecting high demand for the upcoming models. To keep up with this demand, Apple has reportedly added another mini-LED supplier to the mix.

After adding Taiwan Surface Mounting Technology, DigiTimes mentions that the technology giant has enlisted the services of Luxshare Precision Industry to provide it with surface mounting technology, or SMT, for the mini-LED screens. With the addition of Luxshare, Apple would not just be able to keep up with eventual demand for the 14-inch and 16-inch M1X MacBook Pro models, but it could provide the bigger M1 iPad Pro to customers in a timely fashion.
