Apple iPad Pro 2018 Specs List Leaks In CAD-Based Renders And Video
Apple is expected to launch two 12.9-inch and 10-inch iPad Pro models this year
A lot of details surrounding Apple iPad Pro 2018 specs and features have surfaced online right before the highly anticipated Apple launch event. The Cupertino based tech giant is expected to launch two 12.9-inch and 10-inch iPad Pro models this year, both powered by the A12 or A12X chipset.
Reputable leakster, OnLeaks, has posted CAD-based images and video renders of the Apple iPad Pro 2018 on My Smart Price. Going by the picture, the next-generation iPad Pro will come with a completely new design. The device will not feature the home button anymore, making room for thinner bezels on the new True Tone IPS LCD panels. It will likely take clues from the iPhone X design, which debuted with a new all-screen design last year sans the Home button.
Among other specs, the Apple iPad Pro 12.9 (2018) will feature a TrueDepth camera, which will enable the users to unlock their device using Face ID. This also means it will ditch the Touch ID fingerprint scanner this time.
There appears to be a charging port smack at the bottom middle, but no 3.5mm headphone jack. To compensate for the headphone jack, four speaker grills have been mounted at each corner of the slate, with a power button placed at the right-hand corner.
The volume buttons are present on the right-hand side of the iPad Pro with the Smart Connector relocated on the right above the charging port. The position of the Smart Connector suggests that the new model could be used with a keyboard cover only in portrait mode as the FaceID will not work when held in landscape mode. On the back of the device, there are antenna lines along the top and bottom edges of the chassis, which will hopefully increase the Wi-Fi and cell reception. The Apple iPad Pro 2018 is expected to ship with 64GB/256GB/512GB/1TB storage options.
We advise our readers to take the information with a pinch of salt as nothing about Apple iPad Pro 2018 specs, features or price details is confirmed.
Official details about the next-generation Apple iPad Pro is expected to be announced at the tech giant’s Sept. 12 event.
Sooo… I can’t confirm this one is 100% accurate but… This might be our very first look at the new 12.9″ iPad Pro (360° video + official looking 5K renders + dimensions), on behalf of @mysmartprice -> https://t.co/QJ01AhAXS5 pic.twitter.com/C3wLE9rn0A
