- A “special version of iPadOS 17” is in development for “larger iPad Pro models”
- Support for up to two 6K displays at 60Hz
- The mighty M3 Pro chip
Previously, sources from The Information also suggested that Apple might be working on two super-sized iPad Pro models, with sizes reaching 14.1 inches and 16 inches. However, it seems like the 16-inch model is no longer in development as there have been no leaks or rumors about it recently.
Does the iPad Pro 14-inch have MagSafe?
Another rumor we've been hearing for the past few years is that Apple wants to bring MagSafe to the iPad Pro lineup. However, a recent report suggests that “The Cupertino Company” has encountered some challenges with this plan, such as overheating.
Hence, it remains unclear whether Apple will manage to address the issue in time to introduce MagSafe wireless charging technology for its upcoming large-sized tablet.
iPad Pro 11-inchRelease Date
Although Analyst 941 believes that Apple is developing a special version of iPadOS 17, it doesn't guarantee that Apple will be ready to launch larger iPad Pro models this fall when the software debuts.
Mark Gurman is confident that Apple is waiting until 2024 to “unveil a super-sized iPad Pro”. The journalist elaborated earlier this year: “Certainly, the iPad Pro line won't bring anything noteworthy this year. Instead, look for a major upgrade of the iPad Pro in the coming spring, the first time it will be complete with updated design and OLED screen.”
However, on the contrary, Wayne Ma of The Information reported that the iPad Pro 16-inch could be launched right after the fourth quarter of 2023.
It's highly likely that the iPad Pro 14-inch will be unveiled next year.Another possibility if Apple is indeed working on both the 16-inch and 14-inch iPad Pro models is that they may be released at different times.
