Bloomberg's Mark Gurman calls for the iPad Pro (2022) to be unveiled in the fall powered by the unannounced M2 chip with support for MagSafe.
, the Bloomberg scribe expects the top-of-the-line Apple tablet to be released this coming fall with support for the iPhone's MagSafe charging platform and the M2 chipset under the hood.
The last major update for the iPad Pro took place in 2018 when the iPad Pro gained flat corners and the Lightning port was replaced with USB-C. Touch ID was replaced by Face ID which will work in any orientation. Last year, Gurman predicted wireless charging capabilities for the 2022 iPad Pro along with a glass back. At this point, it still isn't clear what Apple is going to do with the back.
Let's return to the M2 for a second. Gurman says that it will have the same eight-core architecture as the M1, and deliver slightly faster performance. If built on the 3nm node as rumored, it should also conserve energy allowing the 2022 iPad Pro to feature improved battery life.Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
