Fever iPad Pro 2 It is beginning to rise and it encourages that practically every day we now see some news regarding the device in the reference technology portals. However, the data that we are getting to know do not in many cases bring confusion, since they offer directly contradictory indications with each other. Today we are going to collect everything that has been coming out to date to organize this informative whirlwind a bit.
Integrated
Design is one of the biggest conflict points today. On the one hand it has been said that the next iPad Pro 2 will reduce to the maximum of its frames and even that it will be the first iDevice to do without the touch ID physical (although the iPhone 7 has already gone from a mechanical system to a capacitive one). On the other hand, long before this information, it was commented that the true revolution in product design would arrive throughout 2018, a year in which Apple plans to also incorporate the OLED technology to your screens.
As we have already said on occasion, we do not believe that Apple will release such a substantial change as the one that would make the classic disappear home button on the iPad, taking into account that the iPhone is the flagship device and that its initial impact on it would be much greater. Still, there is no choice but to wait.
Screen
In 2017 they will arrive new screen sizes in the iPad Pro 2. In fact this plot depends a bit on the previous one and we are not clear if the mini format will remain as we know it. It is something that has to do largely with Apple's ability to reducir or not frameworks. While it seems clear that the 12,9-inch size is untouchable, for the standard it speaks of 9.7, 10.1 and 10.1 inches, while for the smallest of all, it could stay at 7.9 or ascend to 9.7.
Processor
There is no doubt that the heart of the iPad Pro 2 will be a A10X, processor that has shown excellent data in the simulations but that, clearly, is presenting enough manufacturing problems by the 10 nanometer system used. Apple devices have always shown outstanding latency and responsiveness compared to many Android devices. However, manufacturers like Samsung, HTC or even Google with the Nexus / Pixel are achieving a level of smoothness in the controls that has nothing to envy those of the apple.
One of the great goals for the iPad Pro 2 is to put the earth back in the middle and the Cupertino engineers try to find the right immediacy absolute between order y professional .
Price, RAM, internal memory
In a way, these three fields are the great unknown, since we have not heard a word about them yet. We fear that price wise, we cannot expect big discounts on the current iPad Pro, $679, almost 200 above the Air. Of course, we must bear in mind that Apple lowered the 32 GB model of its tablets and put it as base capacity, with which we gain a bit of storage space, although we must also think that the top range of Android can be established in this year in the 64GB.
With regard to the RAM, currently the 12,9-inch variant adds 4 GB, while the 9.7 remains at 2GB. We will see (this area will largely determine), if the purpose of turning the iPad Pro 2 into a real replacement for computer it is a certain purpose or pure rhetoric.
Business launch event
Lastly, the release date is another important factor surrounding the product. Until now, there had always been talk of spring 2017, specifically of March, which is when it will be a year since the debut of the iPad Pro 9.7. However, problems in the A10X manufacturing by TSCM have raised the alerts. We do not believe that there will be delay, but better be prepared.
