Logs Reveal Apple is Testing Four New iPad Models

Multiple iPad models are being tested within Cupertino and the Bay Area, seemingly confirming new iPads coming in the near future.

As spotted by mobile insights firm Fiksu (via TechCrunch), which tracks app usage, four never-before-seen iPad models are being put through the paces in Cupertino and beyond. Some reports even indicated that Apple could launch an all-new 10.5-inch iPad Pro with a radical new form factor and an affordable 7.9-inch option.

While most of the public’s attention is now focused on the upcoming Apple iPhone 8, there are rumors that Apple fans might have a new piece of hardware to look forward to in the coming weeks. It’s also suggested that the new 10.5 inch iPad Pro model may drop a home button entirely in order to give it the same basic size as the 9.7 inch iPad Pro.

As many as three new units are expected to be released, including a revamped versions of the 9.7 inch and 12.9-inch models, as well as an all-new 10.5 inch iPad Pro.

The 12.9in iPad Pro is said to feature a 12MP rear camera and True Tone display like the current 9.7in model, alongside an A10X processor.

Apple news Apple is expected to launch new products next week, according to a story from MacRumors.

The Apple Pencil digital stylus was also introduced at the same time, enabling people to draw on the tablet more easily.

Apple fans have always been waiting for the next updated version of iPad Pro and iPad Mini. When the supplier reached out to them, Apple straight out said that they have discontinued the product.

While we haven’t yet nailed down a specific timeline for the unveiling of new iPads, the prospective launch window is narrowing and rumors suggest we’re going to see them within the next month. Previously, Apple released invitations nearly two weeks before announcement events. At this point, any Apple Spring Event would take place in late March or April. Apple’s first major keynote of the year will also double as the first event to be held at Apple’s new headquarters.
