There have been lots of speculations about the highly anticipated iPad Pro 2 and when Apple will release the long-awaited device, Fans are also curious what new features will be added to the 9.7-inch and 12.9-inch iPads. But it seems that fans still have a little bit of waiting to do in order to get access to the necessary information.
However, it is still not clear what new features and design changes the upcoming device will sport and the same goes for whether the 2017 iPads will separate 9.7-inch and 12.9-inch of the iPad Pro 2 or whether there will be a 7.9-inch model, a sort of iPad Pro mini, or a new 10.5-inch iPad Pro 2. According to Digitimes, the tech company has moved up the production plans for its new 10.5-inch iPad to March rather than the initial date set for May-June.
Apple is expected to launch the new iPad at a product event, which will be held in April for the inauguration of its new headquarters in California.
