Latest rumors suggest a potential foldable version of the iPad Pro could be in the works.
Hey there! Let's chat about the juicy details about Apple's future gadgets, shall we?
It looks like the tech giant might be cookin' up something major – a foldable iPad Pro! Yes, you read that right. Rumors and leaks suggest that this bad boy could be on its way, and if Digital Chat Station's latest post on Weibo is anything to go by, we might just have gotten a sneak peek at the prototype.
According to the tipster, the foldable iPad Pro is equipped with an under-display FaceID sensor and has an impressive 18.8-inch screen. If true, this would be Apple's first foray into foldable devices, and it would certainly turn some heads in the tech world.
But wait, there's more! Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo earlier reported that Apple is developing a giant, foldable device, which could either be a massive iPad or an all-screen MacBook. Kuo also speculated that it would feature an 18.8-inch or 20.5-inch display, meaning it would be a pretty substantial upgrade from the current iPad Pro models.
So, what does this mean for us regular folk? Well, it looks like Apple is heading toward a notch-free, all-screen design for its foldable device, which would make it ideal for both portrait and landscape mode. However, it's important to note that this is just a prototype, so the final design could still see some changes.
As for when we can expect the foldable iPad Pro to launch, it's anyone's guess. Kuo predicted that mass production is set to start in the fourth quarter of 2025, with assembly following in the first half of 2026, which suggests a release date somewhere in 2026. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, however, predicted a 2028 launch.
So, whether you're a fan of the iPad Pro or a MacBook devotee, it seems we'll have a spectacular new device to look forward to in the near future. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates on this exciting development!
