Next week, Apple will host its highly anticipated Glowtime event, where the tech giant is expected to unveil the new iPhone 16 lineup alongside new Apple Watches and AirPods. However, recent rumors suggest that Apple may also surprise us with the launch of two new iPads, potentially successors to the iPad 10th Gen and iPad Mini 6th Gen, which have been eagerly awaiting upgrades.
iPad Mini 7th Gen
The last iPad Mini was launched three years ago in September 2021, making the potential release of the 7th generation model a significant event. It’s rumored that the new iPad Mini will feature the A18 chip, which could bring exciting new Apple Intelligence features such as an updated Siri, Genmoji, and Image Playground. Additionally, the base storage is expected to double to 128GB, matching the new iPad Air, while maintaining the same starting price of $499. In India, the new model might be similarly priced to the iPad Mini 6, which was launched at Rs 45,900.
iPad 11th Gen
While the iPad 11th Gen may not see a major redesign or tech upgrade, it’s anticipated to be priced higher than the current model. Rumors indicate that this iPad could also run on Apple’s A18 chipset, or at the very least, the A16 chip from the iPhone 15 series. It’s also possible that the base storage will be increased to 128GB, aligning it with current trends.
New Magic Keyboard
In addition to the new iPads, Apple might also announce a new Magic Keyboard. According to a report by Mark Gurman, the tech giant is developing a more affordable Magic Keyboard for the upcoming iPads. However, it’s possible that this won’t be unveiled at the iPhone 16 launch event but rather in 2025.
As Apple’s Glowtime event approaches, the excitement surrounding the potential launch of new iPads, alongside the highly anticipated iPhone 16 lineup, is palpable. The rumored upgrades to the iPad Mini and iPad 11th Gen, including the powerful A18 chip, increased storage, and the possibility of a new Magic Keyboard, promise to enhance user experiences and further solidify Apple’s dominance in the tablet market. While we await official confirmation, the rumors and speculations paint a picture of innovation and advancement, leaving tech enthusiasts eagerly anticipating what Apple has in store.
