Currently, Apple is developing two new versions of iPad Air, codenamed J507 and J537. One of these two models will be quite similar to the current iPad Air and the other will have a larger screen.
If that's true, this would be the first time Apple has launched the iPad Air in two different sizes, and the larger iPad Air would be the same size as the current 12.9-inch iPad Pro, suggesting a The screen size will also be almost identical, the smaller iPad Air does not appear to have any significant design changes.
As for the iPad Pro, it seems that the new models will have some minor changes, at least in terms of size. The 2024 models will be slightly larger and also thinner. The reason the new iPad Pro will be thinner is because the OLED screen has fewer layers than the LCD screen. Specific estimated sizes are as follows:
iPad Pro 11 inch (current): 247.6 mm x 178.5 mm x 5.9 mm
iPad Pro 11 inch (new): 249.7 mm x 177.5 mm x 5.1 mm
iPad Pro 12.9 inch (current): 280.6 mm x 214.9 mm x 6.4 mm
iPad Pro 12.9 inch (new): 281.5 mm x 215.5 mm x 5.0 mm
iPad Air 12.9 inch (new): 280.6 mm x 214.9 mm x 6.0 mm
The new iPad Pro models are expected to be equipped with an M3 chip, as well as an OLED display and more storage options.
Some rumors suggest that Apple is designing new accessories to take advantage of the iPad Pro. As for the new iPad Air, it will have the specifications change from the M1 chip to the M2 or M3 chip.
Apple may announce a special event next month to launch the design or hold a press conference to introduce this new product line.
