Apple week is largely devoted toVision Pro, but the Cupertino company does not only have this product in mind. If Apple's mixed reality headset should change a lot of things in the technological world, more “conventional” devices are also under development.
This is particularly the case for new generations of iPad Pro, with a unique OLED panel. Apple should also market its tablets in the coming months. According to a report published in early December by the specialized press agency Bloomberg, Apple had planned to launchits OLED iPad Pros in March.
But a new report, written by the Korean media The Elec, rather expects marketing at the beginning of April, not before. Indeed, the development of this new panel and its large-scale production seems to have raised unexpected problems on the Cupertino side.
An OLED panel but not only
In addition to this major change regarding the screen of the next version of the tablet, Apple would have worked on the processor of the iPad Pro. If it is already equipped with an M2 chip in its currently marketed version, a new M3 option should arrive in the coming months.
According to information shared by The Elec, the arrival of this new chip should make it possible to increase the performance of the tablet without reducing its autonomy. Finally, a new version of the Magic Keyboard is reportedly being discussed in California.
The Apple brand could offer this new generation a larger trackpad, thus looking more like a computer keyboard than a product designed for a tablet.
Last detail mentioned in its report by the media The Elec, the price of this new generation of tablets. And according to initial information from South Korean journalists, things are not going in the right direction for consumers. Indeed, the iPad Pro of 2024, with the arrival of an M3 chip and an OLED panel, could see its price take off.
We are talking about an increase in the sales price excluding tax of 100 dollars in the United States. In France, such a change could bring the iPad Pro to prices exceeding 1200 euros. Today the 11-inch version of the iPad Pro M2 is available at a price of €1,069.
