Next iPad Pro's chipset and launch timeframe outed
2024-12-05
Apple"s next iPad Pro generation will become available in the second half of next year, and will be powered by the upcoming M5 chip. Mass production will also start in the second half of 2025, and Apple"s "business momentum" is said to "benefit significantly" from these new launches.
The latest iPad Pros launched in May with the M4 chip, and so their successors are set to arrive more than a year afterwards - maybe even around 18 months, depending when exactly the new iPads are made official. Apple has historically taken at least 18 months between iPad Pro releases, and that looks set to continue.
The information comes from TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, well known for his usually reliable Apple-related rumors.
