Gurman also mentions Apple plans on launch of a new iPad dock with an integrated speaker and new Macs later this year. The dock will likely turn the iPad into a Nest-Hub-like device, and it sounds as if Google’s Pixel Tablet would run into its computer. Apples new 15-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models will feature stronger versions of its M2 chip called the M2 Pro and the M2 Max. Gurman says a M2-powered mini is on the way, too.
The new iPad Pro 2022 will likely get used to the same design as the new models last year, including 11-inch and 12,9-inch displays. On the other hand, Gurman says that Apple is preparing to introduce a new entry-level iPad which’s powered by USB-C, 5G and an A14 chip. It is unclear whether Apple will announce its new iPad and iPad Pro tablets simultaneously, but both reveals will likely appear via press releases instead of by dedicated events.
Second, the report points out Apple working on an update Apple TV that features its A14 chip and 4GB of RAM. That provides a decent power boost to the A12-powered 4GB of RAM version of the streaming device.
If Gurmans report is correct, we’ll have to wait for a refresh in the iPad Pro – and its entry-level iPad – but announcing it will likely soon come.
