The Let Loose event of Apple, which is scheduled to take place on May 7, is drawing near, which means that it is time for some last-minute predictions on what to anticipate from Apple’s new iPad portfolio.
According to a tip that was just in time, we have news from Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, who claims that Apple is going to announce four new models. We also have all of the information that you need to know.
Apple iPad event 2024: The iPad Pro 2024
First up is the iPad Pro 2024, which is anticipated to be available in both 11-inch and 12.9-inch sizes once again but will include OLED screens that are more colorful than its predecessors. Equally significant, it is quite possible that they will be the first Apple products to have the powerful M4 processor that the firm has developed.
It is believed that this processor will assist Apple in being able to deliver new artificial intelligence capabilities while also blurring the distinctions between the greatest iPads and the best MacBooks. Gurman further asserts that the new Magic Keyboard will have a design that is made of metal that is more durable and will have an appearance that is similar to that of a laptop.
The article also states that there will be new software that will make use of the technology, despite the fact that the new iPadOS 18 is not expected to be released until WWDC 2024, which will take place in June. There is a possibility that this may have enhanced multitasking capabilities, in addition to additional capabilities for the expected Apple Pencil 3. It has been brought to our attention that the Apple Pencil 3 may be able to feature haptic feedback in addition to new squeeze movements.
Apple iPad event 2024: The iPad Air 2024
During this time, it has been rumored that Apple is on the verge of introducing the largest iPad Air ever, which will include both an 11-inch and a 12.9-inch variant of the iPad Air 2024. The bigger iPad Air could end up being a viable option to the iPad Pro 2024 for those who are ready to make up with a lower amount of power.
To what extent are we talking about power? It is speculated that the older M2 processor will be integrated into both of the forthcoming iPad Airs. In spite of this, we do not believe that these slates will have a sluggish feeling to them since the M2 was used to power the iPad Pro 2022 versions. Only when you are doing heavy-duty activities, such as video editing or gaming, or when you are performing heavy-duty multitasking, will you most likely notice a difference.
Despite the fact that we are hopeful that the new iPad Airs would be compatible with the new Apple Pencil 3, it is conceivable that the attachment will only be available for the Pro series. Not only will you not find OLED displays on these Airs, but it is also probable that these tablets will be equipped with mini-LED panels of superior quality.
Apple iPad event 2024: The outlook
It should not come as much of a surprise that Apple’s iPad sales has been decreasing, given that the company has not introduced a new iPad since the year 2022. The most recent financial report from Apple for the second quarter was released by CNBC, and it said that iPad revenue was $5.6 billion, which is much more than the projected $5.9 billion. The decrease is 17% in total.
Consequently, it is evident that the debut of the new iPad has a great deal riding on it. Be sure to check out the instructions on how to view the Apple Let Loose event, and make sure to stay tuned for our live blog on the Apple event, where we will analyse all of the news.
