SuperChargedNews learned from a source familiar with Apple’s media plans that Apple plans to hold a briefing with some media personnel later next week, focusing on new iPad products.
It is said that Apple will announce an update to the iPad product line as early as October 17th. It should be a press release directly issued on the official website and is listed.
Apple last updated its iPad product line in October 2022, launching the iPad Pro equipped with M2 chips and the newly designed iPad 10. Next week’s new products are expected to include iPad mini, iPad Air and entry-level iPad.
It is said that these new iPads will have smaller specifications, but will be equipped with faster chips. Among them, the new generation iPad Air will use the M2 chip, which can achieve an 18% increase in CPU, a 35% increase in GPU, and a 44% increase in NPU compared to the current M1 chip (refer to iPad Pro); while the new iPad mini will use the A16 Bionic chip.
But besides the chip, the new iPad mini/Air may have other changes, but not too many. Therefore, the new iPad Air may still use last year’s design and 10.9-inch LCD display, and it will not support 120Hz ProMotion technology.
Additionally, the new iPad Air’s maximum storage and 8GB of RAM are also likely to remain unchanged. However, another possible upgrade for the new iPad Air is support for Wi-Fi 6E, a technology currently only supported by the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro.
It is worth mentioning that there are rumors this week that Apple is planning to solve the iPad mini’s “jelly screen” problem, so users who want to buy an iPad mini in the near future can wait.
