HIGHLIGHTS

The leaked iPads have the model number A2229, A2228, A2231, A2233.

The information comes from Apple’s China website.

The information has since been taken down.

If you are looking to pick up a new iPad Pro, you may want to hold your horses. If information circulating the internet is to be believed, then we could have new iPad Pros, soon. According to information circulating the internet, the Apple China support document accidentally listed four new iPad Pros. According to digital trends, “The listings since then have been taken down and match two of Apple’s filings in the Eurasian Economic Commission database.” The listing which has now been removed lists two 11-inch and two 12.9-inch iPad Pro models. They have model number A2228, A2229, A2231, and A2233 respectively. There is no information on whether these model numbers represent the Wi-Fi only or cellular variants of the tablet. 

Apple’s iPad Pro upgrade has been rumoured for some time now. According to analyst Ming Chi-Kuo, the new iPad Pros are expected to come with a triple rear camera setup capable of 3D sensing for Augmented Reality. This will be similar to what we’ve seen on the iPhone 11 Pro. Reports suggested that the tablet could come in the first half of 2020 but with the current state of affairs dude to COVID 19, it isn't clear when the tablets will be announced. Some information also suggests that the new iPad Pros could support a new iPad keyboard with a built-in trackpad. You can read more about it here

The iPad Pro family of tablets was first introduced back in 2015 and has since seen updates/refreshes in 2016, 2017 and 2018. We didn’t get a refresh for the iPad Pro in 2019 so it is expected that we could get a design refresh in addition to updated specs under the hood. 

We also get a refreshed iPad Air in 2019 running on the Apple A12 chip and sporting a 10.5-inch True Tone Retina Display. You can check out our review of the iPad Air here. Another device to see a refresh in 2019 was the iPad Mini. Before 2019, the iPad mini saw a refresh in 2015. So those looking for a small tablet were delighted with the 2019 refresh. With the 2019 refresh of the iPad Mini, we saw an update in the processor from the A8 to the A12 Bionic, along with an increase in RAM. The iPad mini is available in two storage options – 64GB and 256GB. It still retains the 7.9-inch Retina display but now also features Apple True Tone display.
