Release Date of Apple’s iPad Air 6 with M2 Chip
Apple is gearing ready to introduce the iPhone 15 series within the next few days, and each of the four models will get substantial updates. The Wonderlust event that the firm is hosting is going to take place on September 12th, according to the itinerary. It was earlier rumored that the business would throw another in October or November where it will see fit to introduce the new M3 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models. This event will reportedly take place in the United States.
At this time, it is only anticipated that the business would upgrade its iPad Air series with an M2 processor. The announcements about the iPad mini 7 and the M3 iPad Pro will be postponed until a later date.
There is a possibility that Apple may release the iPad Air 6 in the month of October, and that it will use the same M2 processor as the iPad Pro models
It was previously rumored that Apple will have another event for its MacBook updated cycle in the month of October. This was stated before. Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst for the technology industry, predicted that Apple would not have an event for the M3 MacBooks during this year.
However, the analyst did not mention anything regarding the iMac, which continues to be a possibility despite his silence. Weibo (via MacRumors) has allegedly been the source of a fresh rumor that claims Apple will only unveil the iPad Air 6 this year.
If the report turns out to be true, Apple will not release any new MacBooks or iMacs during this year’s holiday season. It would seem that the firm wants the 15-inch MacBook Air to continue its run in the market for a few more months before it makes the decision to replace and simplify the whole of the portfolio with a new CPU.
It is speculated that Apple would make the M3 processor and new MacBook models public in the following year, most likely at its Spring event. As for this year, the business is working on a new and more powerful M2 processor that will be included into the iPad Air 6 that will be upgraded.
The performance of Apple’s iPad Air models might be challenged by the forthcoming M2 MacBook Air, which would place the iPad Air range in direct competition with the M2 iPad Pro variants. On the other hand, the iPad Pro has certain extra functions that are geared at more advanced users.
Despite this, a lot of customers would be interested in purchasing the iPad Air 6 because of its reduced cost. Next year, Apple plans to introduce the M3 iPad Pro models, which will differentiate the ‘Pro’ models from the rest of the iPad lineup thanks to a broad variety of new features and improvements.
It’s possible that Apple may introduce the iPad Air 6 with a press release followed by a brief film demonstrating how the tablet works. Gurman claims that Apple would not organize a separate event for a single product unless the business intends to introduce a new model of iPad in conjunction with the introduction of the product. Additionally, it was previously stated that Apple intends to release the iPad mini 7 with improved internals in the near future.
We have a strong suspicion that Apple will make an announcement on the new iPad Air 6 and iPad mini 7 through a press release in the month of October. It’s possible that the iPad Air 6 will arrive with an M2 chip, while the iPad mini 7 will have an A17 Bionic processor, both of which will be fabricated using 3nm technology.
Please keep in mind that all of this information is just speculative at this point, since Apple has the right to make the ultimate decision. At the moment, everyone is talking about Apple’s next Wonderlust event since the firm is getting ready to unveil the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, in addition to the new Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 devices. Additionally, it was believed that the business is working on a new version of the AirPods Pro headphones that would have a charging case compatible with USB-C. Make sure you stay around because we are going to provide full and detailed coverage of the event.
