Also another possibility, is they want a proper launch event to highlight all the new tech to sell it to you, so they can try and justify any price rises.. a press release isn't as good at getting that message across as someone lavishing love and fancy catch phrase words about a product love on stage, then drop the price increase bomb, pure speculation for sure.
In case you are looking for hope: I just took a look at the original weibo page of the leaker "Instant digital" and on it, they never claimed the launch would be the 26th, instead they claimed it would be some time this week. They even responded to the question "What do say to Gurman denying the launch on the 26th"? with "When did I ever say it's the 26th?"

I think OLED for 11” will be mind blowing. But if you now have mini-led (like myself) i don’t believe it will be that much better.
Maybe for the blooming but for color and contrast I don’t see a leap forward.
they wouldnt mention new ipads in a build anyway untill the ipads are officially announced
AppleInsider is also reporting this with the following note:
“That's because this new update is not available to download over the air at all. To get it, iPhone and iPad users must plug their devices into their Macs.

Fully aware that it would be a fingerprint magnet… but I’ll definitely go for a Jet Black iPad Pro.

The iPhone 7 Jet Black is still the most gorgeous iPhone I've seen.
Aah that Jet Black iPhone was amazing and horrible at the same time.
It was gorgeous out of the box but my wife had one and after two weeks of normal use it looked like it was 15 years old. “Patina” they called it in the Apple Store 🤣
I've just bitten the bullet and bought a discounted 11-inch Pro. I've accepted that OLED, even though it will look fantastic, will be out of my price range for this generation and I haven't used an iPad since the Air 2, which I traded in at least 5 years ago, so I know it will still be a significant improvement on my last experience either way. Best of luck with the announcement everyone!
Whow so a couple of days before the launch of the new one? The old ones are always going down in price so waiting for release is also a better option if you still buy the old one.
I can understand your point. It just seems like a good time for me, with the discount plus going back to school after Easter and having time to set everything up over the holiday. I've also had to replace my Mac today because my old one died, and I wanted to get everything done in one go!
Not really. Really, its getting childish attacking Samsung like this, especially since they make many of Apple's parts.
Are they attacking or giving their opinion on the device they used?
Interestingly, just the Plus. The Ultra, their top of the line, and the regualr S9 don't seem to have a cellular option. And the Plus only has it in 256GB option, not 512GB. Makes no sense why its so limited.
Anyone look at the Surface Pro 10? That looks to be the solution I am most looking for. I had a laptop and iPad and ended up needing both. Sold both and now am strongly considering Surface Pro 10 as a solution for both tablet and laptop.
