On May 7th you have an appointment with us at the event “Let go” from Apple, in which we will see many new features, the vast majority of them focused above all on the iPad and Mac range, although we do not exclude anything at all.
We can see new accessories, a new Apple TV, a new Apple Pencil and much more, so Find out with us which products Apple plans to launch during its May 7 event are you interested in any of them?
iPad Pro, the great protagonist
At this Apple event, we hope to see the next generation of iPad Pro, whether 12.9-inch or 11-inch. In this case, we have been waiting for a long time and it is expected that these The iPad Pro (2024) comes with OLED displays, a rumor that has gained a lot of traction since 2021, when Apple began implementing mini-LED in the larger iPad Pro.
Thanks to an OLED panel, the iPad will achieve better performance in terms of brightness and color quality, which is already happening on the iPhone. Remember that Apple’s OLED panels are generally manufactured by Samsung and LG, which are the only two to manage this technology with ease.
With an OLED panelIn principle, creative users will have greater design ability, notably thanks to its pure black levels. For their part, illustrators will also have greater control over content.
On the other hand, the iPad Pro should be lighter or thinner. According to leading analysts, The iPad Pro is expected to be 15-20% thinner than its predecessor. This will make it a significantly more portable device and make it a very attractive device for those who use its keyboard. Part of the lightness would be achieved through the use of OLED panels, which, as you know, weigh less than LCD panels.
In another vein, The iPad Pro would inherit a variant of the Apple Silicon M3, one of the most powerful processors on the market. However, it is true that it would be a surprise if they implemented the M4 chip, not only because it presents very slight changes compared to the previous one, but because it would somewhat dilute the preference for macOS devices.
Eventually, The camera would be located on the side window, i.e. length. This is something that other brands already implement in their tablets with ultra-panoramic design, namely that a “screen” between 11 and 14 inches does not make much sense to use vertically, a format designed mainly for mobile devices.
Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil 3
The Apple keyboard for the iPad Pro It will inherit some of the features of the more complete products, all with the aim of lightening its weight and offering a more laptop-like experience.
The same thing will happen with the Apple Pencil 3, a device that will likely have new autonomy capabilities and advanced precision with the aim of making the most of the screen’s OLED technology.
New, larger iPad Air
As it happens in the upper range, Apple decides to bet on a 12.9-inch iPad Air and another 10.9-inch one, this size is therefore no excuse for those who opt for the Pro range.
However, The iPad Air will retain its LCD panel, while it will adopt the M2 processor with lots of power and performance. This would put the iPad Air in an intermediate slot between the iPad and the iPad Pro, that is, you will be able to generate a lot of content with it, so in principle for designers or creatives it will be more than sufficient with a good drawing application and your iPad Air, accompanied of course by its new third generation Apple Pencil.
The color gamut would in principle remain intact. The reality is that the color palette offered by the iPad Air and iMac is more than enough to satisfy users’ needs. This, yes, This iPad Air will be fully compatible with the Magic Keyboard presented for the iPad Pro, hence their growth in size to imitate their superiors.
And you could say that would be it. Apple has no plans to give us any hints about long-awaited products like a redesigned Apple TV with emulation capabilities. We also have no news of the renewal of any of the products in the AirPods range. In short, we are facing what could be a somewhat decaffeinated event, but let’s not forget that the iPad is precisely the best-selling tablet in the world, so it goes without saying that there will be millions of users who will expect what Apple is capable of. to offer us these days, and if you are one of them, you just have to stay tuned to everything that iPhone News has to offer to stay informed.
