Looking forward to being able to watch the event with my family and then nudge the person next to me saying: "I told you it would be an M4, sis!"
Got a tip for us?

Me: "What's an iPad other than a big, less capable iPhone? And what difference will M4 make? When will iPad step out of iPhone's shadows? And what did you mean to say with the whole 'What's a computer' ad campaign that people hated so much? Am I supposed to replace my computer with a big iPhone? How? I need answers, Mr. Apple!!"

The notch is gonna come if they slim the bezels. Then the dynamic island, then the dynamic hole, then the invisible island. Apple has it all staked out on the roadmap.
I would love something like an 11 inch ultraportable apple silicon fully featured macOS laptop with permanent keyboard and pencil capable monitor.
Tim’s successor will have to sketch out even more models than Steve did.
Apple’s product line up is getting messier and messier.

They need all the power to make installing all of the patches to their bug ridden software faster.
If they put a notch, a slot or a hole in an iPad then they are officially dead to me. Forever.
Well i think i did not enter in Apple store since long time, current ipad pro 11 is already over 1000, LoL
Cook won't be happy until there's at least a hundred iPads concurrently on sale.
How do you use your current iPad Pro?
What will the new iPad Pro enable you to do or improve upon what you do?

iPad Pro should focus less on 5mm thickness, and more on adding more ports such as SD Card and MagSafe 3 from Mac laptops, to make the device more "pro".
Getting more excited for this event… but my ipad air 4 with magic keyboard, ipad mini 6 are going to last at least another three years.
By the time i do upgrade there could be a huge jump in features and fingers crossed, battery life.

They should prioritise battery capacity over thinness. I mean ipad Pros are already so heavy that holding them isn't really super comfortable. So thinness is a low priority id say.
I've lost count of the number of books I have read on my iPad Pros. They are far lighter than almost all of the hardcover versions of those books.
Given the iPad Air will use the same Mini-LEDs panels from the current iPad Pros, it will be essentially the same product.
My hope is that new features of a new Apple Pencil will not be limited only to the Pro model. Although I suspect that will be the case.
This is true… but ipad mini is far easier to hold for long reading at home, on train etc
The advantage of larger iPads is for ebooks contains a lot of graphics… like an non fiction book etc. you dont need to scroll and zoom so much
If the event is named "Let loose" could it be that is has something to do with something detachable thing or someone allowed .. like "multi users" let loose the whole family with multi user support on iPad ?
Let Loose definition : to allow (someone or something) to move or go freely

I predict a renewed iPad line up where all iPad Airs get white bezels and colors like the iMac. Besides that, the iPad Mini becomes the iPad Air 8,3 inch to create a less cluttered line up. Then the line up will be iPad, iPad Air in 3 sizes and iPad Pro in 2 sizes. iPad as an entry model, iPad Air as mid range and iPad Pro for the Pros, and if people really want those black bezels, they need to buy the Pros.
