iPad Pro When are new iPad Pros being announced?

[gusping]

The iPhone 15 Series went down in price because of the stronger Euro, after the 13 or 14 series went up because of the weak euro. So it's not out of the question that the 2024 iPad Pro will be dow in price as well, the prices we now see are from the M2 variant and that one is from the weaker Euro time.

I was surprised by that, given Apple's previous price rises for smaller changes in the exchange rate. iPads are not selling particularly well at the moment, so I can't imagine a price rise going down well in Europe.

If the price increases above the current £1,250 for the 12.9in 128GB I will most likely keep my 2018 Pro another 18months.

It's been so long since a release the people buying one are people who need one. Others like us are waiting for the new ones to be announced.

Hoping for some good news next week.

My guess now is that they are waiting to get stock into vendors (VZW, AT&T, T-Mobile etc). If they put an island on the Pro 13.1" it will probably launch on April 1st.

I also think those vendors will play a big part in the release once apple announce pre-orders those sites will follow I think apple is prepping them for the release.

Sounds like there will be limited 11 inch OLED models on launch

I think the new iPads will drop on March 26th. There is an ESR iPad Air 12.9" Case listing on Amazon Canada that says it will be released on March 26th.

If there's no announcement next week, then maybe it will be announced on March 26th instead.

Also, from this image it seems like there will be no bezel reduction, but we can see that new iPad Pros will have horizontal Face ID.

This is some concrete stuff we can base predictions on, nice. Seems to me this lines up well with the usual schedule of a product being delivered a week after announcement/orders, and the iPad would arrive to buyers before the Easter weekend. This points to an announcement on Monday or Tuesday.

I'm blind. Where do you see anything indicating the camera/Face ID position? Bezels are completely black for me.

The position of the notch on the screen protectors.

LOL. It's been a long week, clearly. I despise screen protectors on an iPad so just looked straight at the bezels. What an idiot. Thank you.

 

[Macalway]

Looks like the 26th then. That image seems accurate. This also lines up with the March-April predictions.

I don't think that means anything. Vendors often release products before or after the intended device launch date. They are on their own production schedule. Often, we see cases come out early. Maybe ESR just isn't ready until the 26th. Doesn't mean that's iPad day.

Ah dang. That sucks. I still hope we see the new iPads sometime soon though. If we start seeing cases for new products emerging, doesn't that mean product launch is quite soon though?

It says pencil 2 support. Does that mean that there is no new pencil being announced.

Does this make March 26th the iPad announcement/unveiling/preorder date? Or the date it hits the shelves?

These cases aren't on Amazon in the US which is weird.

That I have no idea.

I'm hoping announced Monday or Tuesday and it hits shelves the following week.

Great find. Date makes a lot of sense for release given some historical timing. I wonder if they’ll announce prior or just announce and release simultaneously on the 26th.
