Will there be new iPads? Apple will reveal the news already next week

--

In the second half of last year, we already saw the unveiling of the latest iPhones with the number 15 in the name, two new smart watches and improved computers at the same time. Tablets with a bitten apple logo are now most likely next.

This is also evidenced by the invitation, which this time is very instructive. It shows a cartoon human hand playing with an Apple Pencil. That is, with a special stylus that is used precisely with iPads.

Apple press invitation

Almost two years of waiting

The latest news from the world of tablets was presented by Apple the year before last October, i.e. almost two years ago. At that time, two different tablets with the logo of a bitten apple played first.

In the case of the high-end iPad Pro, major changes were made in the guts of the device, the tablet received a newer M2 processor instead of the older Apple M1 chip.

The Apple M2 chip has up to 15 percent faster 8-core CPUs and up to 35 percent faster 10-core GPUs compared to generations. And a 40 percent faster Neural Engine to accelerate machine learning tasks and 50 percent more memory throughput.

It is thanks to this chip that it is possible to create photorealistic 3D designs on the tablet, build sophisticated AR models and play games with console-level graphics and higher frame rates. The battery lasts all day with all this.

The performance is sufficient for the device to function as a laptop with a special cover. In the same way, it is possible to connect the latest iPad Pro with a cable directly to the monitor and use it with a keyboard and mouse as a desktop PC.

Prices for the iPad Pro with an 11-inch display start at CZK 25,990, and in the case of the 12.9-inch variant, at CZK 35,490. In this respect, the second novelty of last autumn, which is simply called iPad (2022), is cheaper. Apple values ​​the cheapest version at CZK 14,490.

A new design language

The second novelty was the basic iPad, which finally after years switched to the design language of its little brothers – the iPad Air or Pro. Unlike the older iPad 9, the iPad (2022) has thin frames around the screen and got rid of the now obsolete home button under the display.

The pleasant appearance of this iPad with a 10.9-inch display is further emphasized by the whole range of offered colors – you can buy the 10th generation iPad in blue, pink, silver and yellow. You get them all in a 10.9-inch body with a Retina display. You can choose between WiFi and 5G connectivity, in capacities from 64 to 256 GB.

The USB-C interface takes care of charging in the same way as in the case of the iPad Pro. There is also other equipment typical of higher-end Apple tablets, such as the Magic Keyboard Folio case with Trackpad, thanks to which the tablet can function as a laptop at the same time.

The heart of this tablet is the Apple A14 Bionic processor, which powered, for example, the iPhone 12. The newer chips are of course better at performance, but the A14 is no slouch either. Even by today’s standards, it still has enough power.
