Apple iPad 10th gen will be launched towards the end of 2022 and will be reusing the same old design of its predecessor, a reliable tipster has revealed.
The tipster who goes by @dylandkt on Twitter further revealed some key specifications of the device saying that it will be featuring 5G, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi 6, and A14 processor. The design will remain unchanged and Apple will only be bringing forward a refreshed look in 2023. This means there will be a 10.2-inch display once again, presumably the same 2160×1620 resolution panel that Apple markets as a Retina Display.
The iPad 10th Generation is coming out towards the end of this year with 5G, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi 6, A14 processor, 10.2 inch display, and the lightening connector. This will be the last model before a redesign is to take place in 2023.

Also unchanged compared will be the usage of the trusty lightning port meaning the iPad 10th gen’s battery will most likely be filling up at the same speed as the current model.
The usage of A14 Bionic means that the iPad 10th gen should offer moderately improved performance over the iPad 9 — or up to 20% to be more precise. The chip is based on a 5nm process and features 11.8 billion transistors, which is nearly 40% more than the A13.
Apple‘s recycling of designs for yet another year means that there has been little change in the looks department since the iPad 7th gen that was unveiled back in 2019. While the tablet continues to hold well enough in terms of looks even in 2022, the bezels can be definitely slimmed down a bit. This, we should hopefully be seeing with the 11th iteration.
