According to foreign media MacRumors, the upcoming 12.9-inch iPad Pro will be thicker than the previous generation version, which may be due to the MiniLED display.
A source designing accessories for Apple devices sent a series of photos to MacRumors. The photos have the exact dimensions of the new iPad Pro model. Although foreign media can’t share the pictures themselves, they say they can share the leaked dimensions. This is similar to Mac Otakara. The size shared in February is the same.
The size of the 12.9-inch model will reach 280.65 mm long, 215 mm wide, and 6.4 mm thick. Except for the thickness, these dimensions are similar to those of the current iPad Pro, indicating that the design of the device will not change.
The 6.4 mm thickness is 0.5 mm thicker than the current 5.9 mm thickness of the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. The change in thickness may be due to the addition of the MiniLED display, which will be a unique selling point for the 12.9-inch model.
There have been rumors that the camera lens of the new iPad Pro model will be less protruding, and the size of the camera protrusion will also have some small changes. The design drawing shows that the size of the camera protrusion will reach 27.67mm×27.67mm, which is slightly larger than the previous 27mm×27mm camera protrusion.
As for the 11-inch iPad Pro, its size will remain basically unchanged, including thickness. Its dimensions will be 247.6 mm × 178.5 mm × 5.9 mm.
However, compared with the 12.9-inch model, the 11-inch model camera projection size may have greater changes. The current 11-inch iPad Pro's camera protrusion size is 26.7 mm × 26.7 mm, but the new version of the camera protrusion size may be smaller, 25.3 mm × 25.3 mm.
These blueprints are provided by sources that MacRumors has not cooperated with in the past, but the information obtained is consistent with previous rumors.
It is understood that, in addition to these subtle design changes and the introduction of MiniLED display for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the new model may use Thunderbolt connection and a faster A14X chip, which has the same performance as the current M1 chip in the Mac product line. .
Apple will announce the new iPad Pro models at the "Come in Spring" event tomorrow morning. You may also see the long-awaited AirTags debut, there may be other new iPad and iPad mini models, and Apple may also launch a new iMac.
