Apple is preparing to launch a few new devices in the coming months, including some models of the iPad lineup. There are rumors about the company launching a new iPad Pro and an improved iPad Air with 5G support, among other devices.
Now, a new report indicates that along with other iPad models, the Cupertino-based tech giant will also launch the 10th generation entry-level iPad with support for 5G connectivity sometime later this year.
Do note that unlike the iPad Pro and iPad Air, the new entry-level iPad (10th generation) won’t be making its debut anytime soon and could launch towards the end of the year given that the 9th generation model launched just a few months ago.
In terms of design, it is said that the upcoming 10.2-inch iPad will look exactly the same as the 9th generation iPad. The report adds that the device will come powered by the upgraded Apple A14 Bionic chipset with 5G connectivity.
Further, it is expected to have support for Bluetooth 5.0 as well as Wi-Fi 6 while the rest of the specifications are expected to be the same as its predecessor, including the Touch ID and Lightning connector. Right now, nothing more is known about this entry-level tablet getting launched later this year.
However, since there are several more months left for the official announcement, we expect to get more details thorugh leaks in the coming months. It is expected to launch sometime in September but the timeline could be changed depending on the chip shortage situation.
