Apple's next iPad Pro will be released in a few days. At that time, the company will release the new 11-inch and 12.9-inch versions of the iPad numbered J617 and J620, and the device is equipped with the same M2 processor as the new MacBook Air.
This is the first time that the pro series iPad has been updated in a year and a half, and the M2 chip will bring nearly 20% of the operating speed improvement.
The new iPad is similar to last year's pro style (same flat edge design). In addition, Apple is developing a new entry-level iPad, which will come with a USB-C port and is designed similar to the iPad Pro. This new entry-level iPad will be the most important update in the series in several years.
In terms of software, Apple plans to release iPadOS 16.1 around October 24, which is the first iPad version of iOS 16. The new iOS and macOS software updates add support for the latest iPad Pro models, 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro versions. In terms of new products, Apple is developing the M2 version of Mac mini, which will be the easiest Mac product update for Apple in two years. Also under development is an Apple TV equipped with A14 chip and 4G memory.
In addition to the new iPad Pro, Apple also plans to use smart hubs and speakers to promote tablets to a wider range of home application scenarios.
Apple is exploring a standalone device that combines an iPad with a speaker hub that allows users to use it on a kitchen counter, living room or bedside table. Regardless of the ultimate approach, the move will mark Apple's pace in the field of smart home devices.
