Three New iPad Models Are Reportedly Launching Early Next Year, Here's What's Coming

The lineup could add Apple Intelligence to the base model, while the iPad Air gets OLED and the iPad Pro gains vapor-chamber cooling.

  • Apple is preparing to refresh its iPad Air, iPad Pro, and entry-level iPad in the first half of 2027, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, following the recent launch of the OLED-equipped iPad mini.
  • The entry-level iPad is long overdue for an upgrade, as the current 11th-generation model launched in March 2024 still runs on the A16 chip, while Apple sells nearly 60 million iPads per year.
  • Upgrades include the A19 processor and 8GB of RAM for the entry-level iPad to enable Apple Intelligence, alongside OLED for the iPad Air and M6 chip cooling for the iPad Pro.
  • Connectivity upgrades include the N1 chip and C1X modem for Wi-Fi 7, with regional buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt advised to check the Apple UAE Store for local availability.
  • Apple is not currently expected to introduce major iPad updates in the second half of 2027, making the planned trio the primary focus for the company's tablet lineup that year.
