Sadly, this hasn’t been the case with the iPad Air, which currently starts at a rather paltry 64GB. Since the release of the iPhone 13, Apple has offered a baseline storage capacity of 128GB. While this would represent an excellent upgrade, it seems that the roadmap for this is 2025/2026, so there’s no chance that it will arrive in time for the iPad Air 6. Apple is said to be in negotiations with LG, Samsung, and Chinese companies for active matrix OLEDs (AMOLEDs) that could be coming to the iPad Air and iPad mini. Rumors of OLED screens coming to the iPad lineup have popped up with regularity over the years. IPad Air6, powered by M2- Revegnus MaNew display technologyĪnother change Apple could be looking to bring to iPads is OLED displays. This would allow Apple to raid its parts bin and move the M2 to the iPad Air 6, while retaining the newest silicon for its Pro platform. The iPad Air 5 already boasts a pretty nifty M1 chip, but the 11-inch iPad Pro has been sporting M2 silicon for over a year, with reports suggesting it will get an update to a new M3 chipset. The most obvious area where the iPad Air 6 will be superior to the current iPad Air 5 is in the processor that powers it. This might be a case of Apple tightening up any leaks that were appearing in its production chain, or that any updates to the iPad Air will be minimal. What new features will we see in the iPad Air 6?įor a device whose release could be imminent, there’s not actually that many rumors or leaks out there. This would be similar to the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, so maybe Apple is just offering size variants for customers rather than differently equipped ‘iPad Air Plus’ models. If Apple does introduce a larger iPad Air it seems likely it would be priced around $100/£100 above the regular iPad Air. Naturally, a model with improved hardware will cost more, but as there is currently only around $200/£200 between the iPad Air 5th gen and the 11in iPad Pro, there isn’t a lot of room for a new tier. If Apple does introduce a higher spec or larger iPad Air to accompany the current size, we could see lower prices at the entry level and higher prices at the top of the range. Apple shoppers may see iPad prices decrease. buyers got hit with aggressive price hikes (something that happened across all Apple products, see Is Apple ripping off the rest of the world with inflated prices?) Apple reversed these extortionate price rises when it introduced the iPhone 15, so we are hopeful that outside the U.S. customers when moving between the last few generations, while outside the U.S. Regarding the potential pricing of the iPad Air 6, we can look at the generations that have preceded it as a clue for what you’ll have to pay when it finally does arrive.Īs you can see, Apple kept most of the pricing roughly the same for its U.S. Apple shoppers are hoping Apple will reverse the price hikes of the past few years, as they did with the iPhone. There are rumors that a 14-inch display could be coming to the new iPad Pro, so perhaps the new iPad Air display will be 12.9-inches.Īpple How much will the 6th gen iPad Air cost? The iPad Pro has an 11-inch or 12.9-inch display. Currently, the iPad Air has a 10.9-inch display. There is no indication as to what size this new iPad Air might be. The site indicates that Apple “may be considering introducing a larger version of the iPad Air, or a more expensive model with better specs.” This theory seems to be based on the fact that there are two codenames associated with the new iPad Air: J507 and J508, with the only other iPads having two codenames being the iPad Pro, which comes in two sizes. Apple could be launching two sizes of iPad Air.Īn October 9to5Mac report claimed, not only that “there are multiple new iPads on track for the coming months,” but that this includes two new iPad Air models.New iPad models are unlikely before the year's end.- éæé¤ (Ming-Chi Kuo) SeptemNew iPad Air size
