About a year ago, Apple launched the fourth-generation iPad Pro. Equipped with a LiDAR radar like the one also found on the iPhone 12, the tablet was quickly favored by businesses and freelancers for its excellent handling and its large screen, available in two sizes. The largest, which measures12.9 inches, could also be updated before the end of the month.
Indeed,Kang, a well-known informant having notably already issuedassumptions about AirPods 3 wireless headphones, has just suggested that such a product would see the light of day by mid-April. However, he does not add a precise date. In any case, most videographers or analysts who count on an exact timetable most often end up being wrong, as was the case with Jon Prosser who announced the release of this device during a keynote in March. Of course, the latter will never have taken place this year.
Someone harassed Kang every day asking when the iPad Pro will be released. He said that after the new product is released in the middle of the month, people who bought it will give some cleaning cloths. Those who do not buy will be directly blacklisted.

Supposed datasheet
Apple's new iPad Pro should continue to have three sensors on the back, including two lenses dedicated to photography and ToF (time of flight). It is also possible that it abandons LCD technology for its screen, in favor of a panelmini-LEDmore energy efficient. But this is not the only advantage of this solution, since it also displays better contrasts and manages brightness better than classic OLED for example.
The design, for its part, should not change. Logically, like previous editions, it is also entirely possible that we canphysically unplug the microphone. One more guarantee in favor of confidentiality offered by the Cupertino manufacturer, which has made it its trademark, especially since the arrival of Tim Cook at its head.
Other products on the way
In addition to the fifth generation iPad Pro and AirPods 3, it is also likely that Apple has other new items in the pipeline. It is thus assumed thatan Apple TV with a 120Hz refresh rate will also be revealed in 2021, whileMacequipped with silicon processors have been seen in several leaks.
Obviously, as nothing is official at the moment, betting your entire investment thesis on this kind of rumor is still risky. We will likely know more via a press release or conference. WWDC is scheduled for June.
