MacRumors Latest Information About the Apple iPad Pro

AT A GLANCE

The “iPad Pro” is said to be an even larger version of the iPad Air, with a display measuring in at 12.2 to 12.9 inches. Perhaps aimed at the enterprise market, it may feature an ultra high-resolution display and an A8X processor.

WHAT WE EXPECT

Apple is planning to expand its iPad lineup with a larger tablet, which the media has taken to referring to as the “iPad Pro.” Expected to measure in at 12.2 to 12.9 inches, the iPad Pro will be Apple’s largest tablet, dwarfing both the 9.7-inch iPad Air 2 and the 7.9-inch iPad mini 3. At 12.2 to 12.9 inches, the iPad Pro would be closest in size to the 13-inch MacBook Air.

It is unclear what moniker Apple plans to bestow on its larger-screened iPad, but the media has taken to calling it the “iPad Pro. A recent report from Mac Fan suggests it might be called the “iPad Air Plus,” after the iPhone 6 Plus and the iPad Air.

While rumors on the larger iPad are somewhat scarce, it’s believed the tablet will closely resemble the iPad Air 2 and the iPad mini 3, offering a thin chassis and slim bezels. The iPad Pro may measure in at 7mm, and it will likely include several iPad Air 2 features like 2GB of RAM, Touch ID, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi.
