The day came. As already announced, today is “Let Loose”, which is how Apple has titled its new event. This is a new special event that will focus on the presentation of the new iPads after an entire 2023 in which the company did not announce a single new tablet, which is unusual because it has never happened since the first model was presented in 2010.
How could it be otherwise, in Applesfera we will have special coverage for this event. In this article we tell you absolutely everything about it: what time it is based on your territory, how long it will last, how you can follow it live and what we hope Apple will present.

Which iPad will Apple present at its new event
There is no surprise that it will be an event dedicated to iPads and with this in mind, as we have already announced this week, there will be four iPads divided into two ranges. Two which are also Apple’s highest:
- iPad Air (6th generation): for the first time, there will be two sizes of iPad Air with 10.9 and 12.9 inch screens with IPS technology and the M2 chip as the main new features.
- iPad Pro (2024): the big news is that we will see OLED panels in the two usual sizes, 11 and 12.9 inches. A refinement in its design is also expected, as well as the incorporation of an M3 chip or even a new M4, which has been the subject of numerous rumors in recent days.
What accessories will Apple announce at the event
What would an iPad be without its accessories? An excellent device, but less versatile, that’s clear. And that is why today we will also attend the renewal of the Apple Pencil with an Apple Pencil 3 which, if predictions are true, will bring interesting innovations such as new magnetic and interchangeable tips to obtain new drawings, haptic vibrations and new gestures.
On the other hand, we will see a New Magic Keyboard with trackpad. It’s still a bit of a mystery at this point and, despite rumors of a new design, everything really points to it being reinforced with better materials. Likewise, we can see previously complex developments at the technological level, such as its USB-C connector used not only to recharge the iPad, but also to transfer data.
What surprises does Apple have in store for the event?
Surprises can never be ruled out at an Apple event. Not perhaps to the point of imagining that they are announcing the iPhone 16 and not even the iPhone SE 4. To avoid introducing themselves, even the iPad mini 2024 and the iPad 11 will not be presented. However, there might be one. important announcement with Vision Pro and its arrival in new countries beyond the United States.
Likewise, Apple could serve a aperitif of its new artificial intelligence. We know that the highlight will be on June 10 at WWDC 2024, but it is not excluded that they will announce something about the new iPads and their capabilities in this area.
