I’m honestly fine with the RAM it comes with, I don’t do very graphic intensive things and only do basic things and media consumption and occasionally some light editing if ever. I’m sure it can handle everything I do on it. Going back to the point of the Release Date, Jon Prosser who has a very spotty track record tweeted saying to get our iPad Air money ready, so we’ll see if he’s right this time. I want him to shave his eyebrows though if he is wrong.

Hmm since the new iPhones have the A14 but no promotion this may be the one to buy for most.....I have just been bored with Apples new releases lately....sure most wanted promotion on the iPhone pros

and of course it states front and centre on the Air configurator that they're here in October ("Ab Oktober erhältlich in my world") which starts tomorrow.

I'd like it if it's true.

I do need a new iPad ASAP, I sold my 12.9 Pro because it was too big for work, but Apple is annoying me by not releasing the Air and pushing me to buy Pro 11in. I hate taking notes from meetings on paper.

True, but any date between Oct 1st and 31st would still be "here in October"...

All iPad Pro delivery dates are now 22-23-Oct, could mean new iPad Pro to be released this month.

iPad Pro has been supply constrained all year. This 3-4 week lead time is just what it’s been from Apple for months now.

I still have the original first generation iPad Air 2 so I think these new 2020 iPad Airs will be a viable upgrade for me (all the other iPads look almost identical to mine other than the iPad Pros - which I don't want).

Only thing is, is that Apple are only giving me £130 trade in price for my current iPad, on their website - I'm sure its worth a lot more than that..!!!
I am in the same boat with my Mini 4. It has more value as a backup device than Apple is willing to pay for it. I'll probably keep it so my daughter can watch movies in the car when we road trip.

There's no chance of that. Why would it not have been announced during the event that was largely about the iPad? Where they made a point of bragging that every full sized iPad has received a new model this year?

As far as I know, Pro shipments have been weeks behind since the summer.

I have no issue making an appointment at Singapore Apple Store and picked up my ipad pro 11 inch space grey WiFi model 128gb just last weekend.

But I can now see that the model I bought is no longer available in store and the shipping date has been push even further from 23-30 Oct.

I'm hoping they keep the same colors next year, when I eventually upgrade my current Air to a new one. Love that blue!!

Are you smoking something? :)
Nah, my job is too important. If you actually do a little research you'll see several people think their will be another iPad Pro this quarter (4th). When I said this month, I meant next month, November.

I’m not going to accuse you of smoking anything, but it seems incredibly unlikely another new iPad is coming this year given that Apple just announced/launched 2 this fall and the current iPad Pro is only like 6 months old. They’re still filling orders for it that we’re placed in the summer! It seems a pretty safe bet that after the Air 4, we won’t be seeing any more iPads until March 2021 at the earliest.

You maybe right. We'll see, for now I'll wait in this iPad Air 4 and go from there.

Several people spewing crappy info is not research, haha.

So I saw rumors that you can preorder today.. I assume that’s just a fluke? Regardless, I’m ready for it. Already sold my MBP 2016 and on a 10.5” Pro that I’m going to pass down to my mom.

Oh I agree.
And clearly, it's October and nothing has changed. ?

Well in California, where Apple is based, it's only been October 1st for about 3 hours, and it's still pretty much the middle of the night.
