With a decade-long legacy of innovation, the iPad has become synonymous with the very concept of a tablet. However, according to Bloomberg, 2024 could serve as a significant upgrade cycle, with an overhaul that could redefine the iPad experience once more.
A RENAISSANCE FOR THE IPAD
In a technology landscape that moves at breakneck speed, a year without a new iPad release could be seen as stagnation. Indeed, it's virtually unheard of for Apple not to upgrade the iPad, with the devices often forming part of the company's usual November event. However, Apple's plan to revamp the entire iPad range in 2024 suggests a strategic retooling rather than a lack of innovation. The lineup, including the flagship iPad Pro, the versatile iPad Air, the compact iPad mini, and the entry-level iPad, is expected to embrace the latest in Apple's chipset technology, potentially introducing the M3 chip from the new Mac range within the Pro series and incorporating the M2 and A16 Bionic chips in other models.
The iPad Pro stands as Apple's premium tablet offering, and if the rumors hold, the 2024 version will present the most substantial update since its inception. Among the purported advancements is a shift to OLED display technology, offering a considerable upgrade over the current mini-LED screens. With potential suppliers like LG Display and Samsung Display at the helm, expectations for a superior visual experience are high. This would mark a significant shift, bringing the iPad Pro in line with the top-tier smartphones and tablets already sporting OLED screens, renowned for their vivid colors, deep blacks, and energy efficiency.
