Even though it is unclear on whether the 10.5-inch iPad Pro will be announced later this year's spring, or in the fall, it is clear that the company is planning to launch highly anticipated iPad soon in the market. Additionally there are also several claims about the specs and features of the upcoming iPad Pro variant which Apple patrons are buzzing about.
The 10.5-inch iPad Pro was previously rumored to be launched along with the 9.7-inch variant. However, it then turned out that the smaller variant to be unveiled first. According to Mac Rumors, there is a high possibility for the awaited 10.5-inch iPad Pro to be unveiled in this Month. The launch will also highlight the inauguration of the latest Apple Park Campus in the current month.
As per HIS Markit analyst, Rhoda Alexander who had appeared on Forbes also claimed that Apple's manufacturing partners will start limited production of the 10.5-inch iPad Pro this month.
Apple recently on 21 March has announced an entry-level 9.7-inch iPad, new Apple Watch bands, 128GB iPhone SE and Red iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus through its newsroom. The latest reports coming from DigiTimes claimed that the company is planning to unveil the 10.5-inch iPad Pro at an early April event to mark the inauguration of its new Apple Park campus "Spaceship."
If this timeline is correct then it is unlikely that Apple would have shared such detailed plans with the supply chains. However, Alexander believes that Apple's April launch is still looking tentative, but the necessary elements for the launch are starting to come together. It is also likely that the company might release limited products during the spring launch in the US and other selected countries.
Although Apple is yet to clarify these rumors, the supply chain is pretty clear that it is coming. Fiksu has suggested that the new upcoming iPad models could launch within a month that would suggest a release by the end of this month.
