The new iPad is the cheapest iPad to support the Smart Keyboard, will ship with iPadOS
Apple has been touting the iPad as the future of mobile computing for some time now, and the upcoming release of iPadOS on the 30th of September will bring more of a desktop feel to iPads, along with desktop-class browsing for Safari. But a large part of that is having a physical keyboard attached to the iPad, and Smart Keyboards from Apple require Apple’s Smart Connector on the iPad to work.
Of course, Bluetooth keyboards still work for all iPads, but those require separate charging—prior to this, only the iPad Air and iPad Pro models supported Smart Keyboards. Apple has just announced the 7th generation of the iPad, that now supports Smart Keyboards, which makes it the most affordable iPad to have the Smart Connector .
They’ve also packed the 7th-gen iPad with a larger 10.2″ display , although the new iPad still utilises the same A10 Fusion chip that its predecessor used. In fact, it’s very similar to the 9.7″ predecessor, and lacks the laminated display that the iPad Air and iPad Pro models have. The Apple Pencil, supported on the previous iPad, is also supported with the 7th-gen iPad, although only the 1st-gen Apple Pencil is supported. And of course, you still use a Lightning connector to charge the iPad, and there is no Face ID—the design is still very much traditional, as far as the iPad is concerned.
The iPad 10.2″ will ship with iPad OS , which will bring a number of welcome changes to the iPad experience. Improved file management, for one, is certainly needed. A desktop that looks less like a blown-up iPhone home screen, too, is something that can’t come soon enough.
