Reports suggest that Apple’s highly anticipated next-generation iPad Pro and iPad Air models, which have not yet been officially announced, are expected to debut in early May. The new iPad Pro models are rumored to feature OLED screens, a detail that has been leaked multiple times. Additionally, the iPad Air is expected to be offered in two sizes for the first time in its history, expanding the series beyond a single device.
It has been approximately eighteen months since the release of the previous iPad Pros, marking the longest gap between releases in Apple’s tablet history. The inclusion of OLED screens in the new models is expected to result in a sleek and thin design, making the wait worthwhile.
Production has reportedly been increased in anticipation of the launch, with Apple aiming to boost tablet sales, which have declined in recent years. The iPad Pros will feature the M3 chip and revamped versions of the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil. There are even rumors of the Apple Pencil gaining support for the Vision Pro headset. The iPad Air will also receive a new processor and a larger 12.9-inch size, providing a more budget-friendly option for those wanting a bigger iPad.
Originally slated for a March release, delays in finalizing software and intricate manufacturing processes for the OLED screens have pushed the launch to May. Despite these setbacks, Apple is focused on delivering a high-quality product to consumers.
