Apple has been bumping up the sizes of its existing iPad offerings with each passing generation. The iPad Air 3 (2019) sported a 10.5 inch display, but a new leak has revealed that the fourth generation of the tablet will sport an 11 inch screen size similar to the high end iPad Pro.
According to a recent report, Chinese suppliers of Apple have stated that the iPad Air 4’s body is built with reference to the current 11 inch iPad Pro. This implies that rather than increasing the size of the tablet, the Cupertino based giant could be narrowing the bezels on the device and could even introduce Face ID components as well. Unfortunately, this is still unconfirmed officially and the exact sizes are also unknown.

Furthermore, the report mentioned that iPad Air 4 will be replacing the proprietary Lightning port in favor of the USB Type C port. This change will also be reflected in the latest generation of iPad Mini, which will also have its display size increased from 7.9 inch to an 8.5 inch screen.
Under the hood, the upcoming iPad Air and iPad Mini models will reportedly feature Apple’ A13 chipset. The high end iPad Pro is said to feature the A14X chipset along with 5G networking and new display technology, namely the mini LED. Although, these are still just an unconfirmed leak for the time being, so take this report with a grain of salt.
