As is often the case with Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, it was not necessary to wait until a few months after the launch of the current iPad Pro 10.5 to start having news about its successor and it seemed that a long time in advance we had already been able to set a date of launch approximate even to iPad Pro 2018. The latest news, however, suggests that it could come earlier than we thought.
IPad Pro 2018 could debut at WWDC
How they tell us in Macrumors, these new forecasts come from an analyst at Rosenblatt Securities, but we do not have many details about their sources nor is it entirely clear how much weight we should give compared to previous predictions that, as we have commented on several occasions, invited us to think rather about a debut in the second half of the year and, therefore, in the September event, sharing the stage with the next iPhone.
According to this latest report, however, Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), could repeat last year's move and make its new tablets debut again in the WWDC. That would mean that its presentation would take place in the month of June and, judging by the most reasonable bets we've seen so far on the exact date the event could take place, more specifically between days 4 and 8.
One more bet for an iPhone X-style design
This report does not go into much detail regarding the features we can expect from the new iPad Pro 2018, except for the design, on which, without surprises, he affirms that it will stand out for a new reduction of the front frames and the disappearance of the home button, following the lines of the iPhone X.
If you are a little aware of the news regarding the news about the next iPad, you will understand that we say that the bet does not surprise us because this feature is something in which all the information that we have had so far about it agrees iPad Pro 2018, since KGI predicted that the Face ID would reach the tablets of Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), already this year. There are other things that are still in the air, but a renewed design is something that is currently in all pools.
Will an iPad 9.7 arrive sooner?
This latest report also makes no mention of the possibility that a new iPad 9.7 can get on stage with him iPad Pro 2018 And the truth is that there is no reason to expect it either because its predecessor did not do it last year. In fact, the news we have about the renewal of the cheapest tablet on the block is much scarcer than those referring to the flagship model.
The few that we have, in any case, point to that new iPad 9.7 would arrive earlier, with some media daring to even predict that it would this same month. It cannot be ruled out because we already told you that there are records that indicate that Apple are already preparing the launch of new tablets. If so, in any case, it is normal that we have some new news soon, so stay tuned.
