Apple was expected to release iPad Pro 2, at the end of March. However, in a sudden turn of events, the Cupertino-based tech giant has released a revised version of the standard iPad tablet instead.

Right now, there are talks among the market watchers that Apple could launch the Apple iPad Pro 2 in June. According to a 9to5Mac report, iPad Pro case manufacturer Urban Armor Gear is already preparing a launch of the latest cases for the iPad Pro 2. The case maker has already developed three versions of the same case: one for the 12.9- and 9.7-inch iPad Pro 2 and another one for the 10.5-inch model.

According to the same report, the said iPad Pro cases are set to be released sometime in June. This led many to believe that the Apple iPad Pro 2 might also get released during the same month.

This release date for the cases and Apple iPad Pro 2 also coincides with Apple's upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose, California. At the event, the Apple is expected to reveal a number of things including the major iOS upgrade, iOS 10.3, as well as iOS 11. Apart from new mobile operating systems, Apple is rumored to introduce other products like the rumored Siri Speaker which will compete with the Amazon Echo.

Currently, reports for the Apple iPad Pro 2 have been mixed. At first, rumors suggested that Apple is planning on releasing a 10.9-inch version of the iPad Pro 2. Later, the rumor mill suddenly took a turn and settled on a slightly smaller sized tablet, as reported by BGR.

According to reports, the 10.5-inch Apple iPad Pro 2 will have the same form factor as the 9.7-inch model. This will be achieved by giving the tablet a narrower bezel on both sides of the display.

Based on Apple's design rhythm, Apple iPad Pro 2 is expected to boast an Apple A10X. Apple wants the iPhone 8 to be unique in every way, so it might as well fit the A10X chip inside the upcoming iPhone. The Apple iPad Pro 2 10.5-inch is likely to be priced at $799, which is more than double the pricing of the iPad.
