In March this year, a launching event of Apple is expected where we can see the upgrades from few of their current products along with the arrival of the new line of iPad Pros.
Apple iPad
Few reports claim that the company will announce 4 new models included in its new iPad lineup. 1 among them will be a completely new iPad in the lineup while 3 others will be refresh. Following are these iPad models:
- 7.9-inch iPad Mini
- 9.7-inch iPad Pro
- 10.5-inch iPad Pro
- 12.9-inch iPad Pro
An upgrade for the 7.9” iPad Mini is expected to be launched in this launching event. The iPad Mini 4 will be replaced by a 7.9” iPad Pro, according to reports. The differences between the mini and pro tab are a true tone display, four speakers, 12 MP main camera and a smart connector.
The iPad Pro models of 9.7” and 12.9” are mostly resemble the iPad Pro line while there is an upgrade in the performance and display of these upcoming models. But there is a possibility of release of 3D Touch enable iPad. In both these iPads, we are expecting A10C chip which is modern and faster.
The new 10.5 iPad Pro is the most exciting one. He rumors tell that this iPad is expected to be without a home button and including edge to edge display. But there are also reports that only 3 new iPad models are planned by Apple that range from 9.7” to 12.9”. It is different from the rumors of 4 new models but both can be true as iPad Mini will be replaced with a 10.5” iPad.
Despite difference in numbers, all the Pro models will retain the 3.5 mm headphone jack while including 4 microphones. It seems Apple thinks the 3.5 mm jack as an important feature and doesn’t want to remove it.
More than just iPads
Apart from iPads, we might see few other launches also in the event to be held in March 2017. Apple might introduce storage capacity of 128 GB for its iPhone SE, according to reports. Due to its lower price range, the iPhone SE proved quite successful after it replaced the iPhoen 5s. But its storage options were limited to 64 GB and 16 GB.
The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus might also be features in red color variants which is a part of campaign launched to eliminate HIV/AIDS from Africa.
