Apple will be launching the iPad Mini 4, iPad Air 3 and iPad Pro in the fall of 2015. The devices are expected to feature more powerful upgrades.
Tech Times revealed that aside from the arrival of the much awaited iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus in September 2015, Apple is also expected to present the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro/Plus, which may come with a high-tech stylus
International Business Times reported that Apple applied for a patent entitled “Touch Implement with Haptic Feedback for Simulating Surface Texture”.
The stylus has the ability to give haptic feedback to users when it touches the surface of an iPad or iPhone touchscreen. The vibrations can refer to the ones presented on the display and further adjustments can be done according to the position of the stylus and pressure placed on the surface.
The iPad Mini 4 is said to feature major upgrades such as a more powerful processor, an 8-megapixel rear camera, a 6.1-mm thin case and a design that is highly inspired by the iPad Air 2.
The new iPad Mini 4 is also rumored to have a fully laminated display with anti-reflective coating for better viewing under direct sunlight.
There are talks that Apple will launch the new iPad Air 3, which will feature the same design as the iPad Air 2.
There will be upgrades made in its specifications, which includes enhancing the processor to an A9 model.
As for the iPad Pro/Plus, Tech Times wrote that there is not much information about the tablet, except that the bigger screen size might benefit the company and help stop the reduction in iPad sales.
NowhereElse wrote that the Ipad Pro will measure 305.7mm x 222.6mm x 7.2mm. It will be thicker than the iPad Air 2, which is 6.1-mm thin, but thinner than the original iPad Air, which has a thickness of 7.5mm.
The product is expected to feature some of the latest technologies that Apple is working on, such as side-by-side multitasking, Force Touch and USB-C support. It may also run on either the iOS 9 or OS X.
The iPad Pro might be released in September 2015, if Apple sticks to its usual schedule. The iPad Mini 4 and iPad Air 3 may also be released around the same time. Expert Reviews wrote that the iPad Pro might retail at $749.
More news and details about the three devices are expected in the coming months before the huge launch date.
