“#What to expect from App<\/a>le\u2019s upcoming iPad upgrades<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Last March, Apple updated the iPad Pro line up\u00a0with a new processor, better camera, upgraded mics, and trackpad support. A few rumors suggested that this year, the company will hold an event on March 23 to announce new devices, including new-gen iPad Pros.<\/p>\n

However, we haven\u2019t heard anything from Apple and a new report from Bloomberg<\/a> suggests that we\u2019re going to see the new iPads in April.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re expecting any visual changes to the iPad Pro lineup, you might be disappointed. The sizes \u2014 12.9-inch and 11-inch \u2014 will remain the same, and there won\u2019t be any major design shifts from the previous generation.<\/p>\n

One of the biggest updates Apple is introducing is a mini-LED display that\u2019ll supposedly improve contrast ratios and brightness. In a recent investor note, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that mini-LED\u00a0 tech is coming to at least the 12.9-inch model<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The display technology<\/a> is already picking up and the world\u2019s leading TV makers have already released models with it at CES in January. You can read more about those TVs and mini-LED tech here.<\/p>\n

In its report, Bloomberg said that the new iPad Pros will also get \u201can updated processor that is on par with the faster M1 chip in the latest MacBook Air.\u201d So, we could be seeing an M1X tuned for Apple\u2019s tablets. This will definately bring more power to iPads, and probably provide a platform for developers to tune their iOS apps to run better on Macs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to this, the new-gen iPad Pros will also get a Thunderbolt port. In essence, it\u2019ll remain a USB-C port, but it\u2019ll allow you to connect peripherals such as external monitors and hard drives better.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re not expecting any changes to the iPad Air or the iPad Mini at this event. However, another recent Kuo note<\/a> suggested that the Air could get an OLED screen in 2022, and that sounds exciting.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be covering all things iPad on Plugged, so stay tuned.<\/p>\n
