iPad Pro When are new iPad Pros being announced?

[JeffreyVB]

I will instantly buy the new Magic Keyboard. Cannot imagine using the current one for any longer. Trackpack and viewing angle is such garbage.

I am most interested to hear about the new Magic Keyboard and if it will work with my 12.9 M2 Pro.

If the Apple Stores have a visual reset the night of the 28th like a previous news post said we should see an announcement the 25th/26th and in store the 29th. They don’t do those unless they’re doing a lot of work in the store.

I think it’s going to be on the 26th and in stores April the 3rd….

Would you want a keyboard similar to that of the iPad 10th generation one (Keyboard Folio)… or maybe the Logitech Keyboard Combo Touch?

Instant digital says iPad Pro 11” 2024 will have bezel size of 7.12mm, 12.9” will have 7.08mm (excludes aluminum housing, just display bezel)

How does this compare to previous models?

New rumor.......Pros will be available in Glossy AND Matte displays.

I think the current iPads have 8.9mm bezel, but I'm not sure if this includes housing

Matte is tempting. I’ve yet to find a matte screen protector that doesn’t have rainbow effect which gives me eye strain. Alas, PWM OLED is a no-go for me.

There are new exterior dimensions for the Pros, so I highly doubt it. :/

Slightly unrelated note: I really, really hope the new Magic Keyboard gets MagSafe.

I can't wait to see the price of this new so-called magic keyboard. The current one is £379 here in the UK and we know the new version will be more expensive given the rumours of a more solid metal construction. Will it cross the £500 mark? It will certainly get very close.

A price increase of almost 33%? Not gonna happen.

Nice to see a European-based Apple optimist these days. Not met one for a while 🤣 I am being flippant, but I am genuinely curious to see what they think they can get away with.

Praying for space black 🙏

I am really excited about the possibly of a release next week but don't you think it's odd no component or die-casts have been leaked for the iPads or the new magic keyboard? I know schematics of the pro have been.

Maybe the price can go down because the euro is stronger now, and then up again because of the new materials.
it’s 429,- euro now for 12,9. So my bet is on same price or 449,-

Sometimes you just have to take a minute, step back, and think... €449... for a keyboard/trackpad case... good lord, that would be mad.

Yes! I'm hoping for the same. Just like the iPhone 15s reduced in price a bit. Or, the price rise and exchange rate changes cancel out so the iPads are the same price as they are now. I think that's the best case scenario tbh.

Mark Gurman has to randomly tweet out at night saying March 26th is not the announcement date.

NoooooOoo why does he do this! 😩😩
Edit: people are asking if it’s today
Why would people assume a Thursday?

Maybe because it has to do with iOS 17.4.1, macOS 14.4.1?

Ahh gotcha makes sense thank you

However if you order an iPad Pro from Apple Store, it is being delivered next Monday so it can't be today...

 

[vengapat9]

The source that said it would be on the 26th was based in China. A 25th US release date would be 26th in China no? That would line up with the Monday release that the MacBook Air received recently.

I don't think so. If you order an iPad Pro from Apple Store, it comes on the next monday.

That means nothing.

Ahh, the sweet agony of the wait ... and the pain of deciding on 11 or 13" this cycle 😀.
