The iPad Air will hit the market with two versions of different sizes.
Many rumors are starting to circulate online about the new generation of Apple iPad. After the Cupertino company did not launch any new iPad models in 2023everything seems to indicate that they will update their entire iPad product line throughout the next year 2024.
One of the biggest surprises in the new generation iPad catalog lies in the supposed development of an iPad Air with a 12.9-inch screen. Apple could consider entering the market two versions of your iPad Air with different screen sizes and this new option would be added to the 10.9 inch model.
The most recent information from Mark Gurman suggested that the new iPad Air and iPad Pro models would arrive in the first months of 2024 and now Ross YoungCEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, assures that the supply chain has already shipped the first 12.9-inch panels this month and expanded the rumor that iPad Air could arrive in March 2024.

All the rumors seem to converge on this Apple plans to launch two iPad Air models with a 10.9-inch and 12.9-inch screen.. Information also corroborated by Ming-Chi Kuo although certain media they theorize the possibility that the next generation will consist of a single model with a 10.9 inch screen and the 12.9-inch version comes to the market later.
In any case, apart from the radical change in the dimensions of its screen, no major update is expected in terms of the technical specifications of the 6th generation iPad Air. Could incorporate a M2 chipconnectivity 5G and a port USB-C with Thunderbolt technology. The iPad Air 2024 is also expected to get minor design improvements and be available in a new color range. Although it seems that we will have to wait until March 2024 to find out…
