Apple was initially expected to launch upgraded versions of the iPad mini, iPad Air, and the entry-level iPad this year. However, the company saw fit to announce new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models powered by the company's new M3 series of chips. Now, a new report by a prominent analyst claims that Apple is planning to update its entire iPad lineup next year, which includes the iPad Air 6, iPad mini 7, and iPad 11, as the OLED iPad Pro models.
Apple Will Not Launch Any iPad This Year As Company Prepares iPad mini 7, iPad Air 6, And iPad 11 For Next Year
23.10.2023 - 08:57 / wccftech.com / Next Year / Will
It was initially reported that Apple plans to launch new iPad and MacBook models later this year. Later on, rumors coined that the forthcoming M3 chips have been delayed until next year. Various reports highlighted that the company would not release the M3-powered iPad Pro, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro models this year. However, the iPad mini 7, iPad Air, and iPad 11 were reported to launch this year with upgraded internals. It is now anticipated that Apple does not have plans to release any iPad this year as the launch has been pushed to Spring of 2024.
Last week, we heard a sketchy rumor suggesting that Apple will launch the iPad 11 soon. However, the company announced a new version of the Apple Pencil with a USB-C port. If the company had any plans to announce new iPad models, last week would have been the perfect opportunity alongside the Apple Pencil. Now, Mark Gurman from Bloomberg states in his latest Power On newsletter that Apple has no plans to release a new iPad in the remainder of this year.
Apart from this, the analyst did give us a rough estimate for when we can expect new iPad models to arrive. Gurman speculates that Apple will release new iPads in the Spring of next year. As for what models we should be looking forward to, the analyst claims that the company has been working on the iPad 11, iPad mini 7, and iPad Air 6 for a long time.
In terms of changes, we speculate that the design of the aforementioned iPad models is relatively fresh, and it would not make sense for the company to implement further changes. However, all iPad models will launch with a major performance boost. The iPad Air 6 will launch with an M2 chip similar to the iPad Pro models, the iPad mini 7 could launch with an A17 Pro or the A16 Bionic chip, and the iPad 11 could come with an A15 Bionic chip on board. Additionally, the company could offer upgraded camera hardware and new display technology on the iPad mini 7 to reduce the jelly scrolling issue.
Apart from the budget and entry-level iPad models, the company also has new iPad Pro models in the pipeline. The iPad Pro models are expected to come with OLED displays, redesigned chassis with the M3 chip, and potentially slimmer bezels. However, the iPad Pro could see a bit of a delay compared to the rest of the models. Apple could announce the iPad 11, iPad mini 7, and iPad Air at a Spring event, while the iPad Pro could launch at the company's WWDC 2024 event alongside new M3-powered Macs.
