NEW iPads: “official launch” scheduled for 2024

According to what was reported by today’s source, the new 2023 iPads are postponed and will only arrive in 2024, precisely in March.

There has been a lot of talk about the new 2023 iPads, but they did not arrive on the date set by the rumors. Apple seems to have no intention of launching new iPad models until March 2024, as stated by the very famous journalist Mark Gurman of SamaGame News.

In his most recent “Power On” newsletter, Gurman explained that the new Apple Pencil with USB-C port precedes an update to the iPads, which will arrive only in spring 2024. He also added that Apple has been working on several upcoming models, namely iPad 11 generation, iPad mini 7 and iPad Air 6, but is also planning the presentation, for the first time, of iPad Pro with OLED screen.
