Rumors had circulated before that the development of the new version of Apple's iPad was nearing completion and would soon be officially announced. However, Apple had not directly responded to these rumors. Recently, it was revealed that Apple has started sending out invitations to the media for an online event scheduled for 10 p.m. Beijing time on May 7.
The theme of this online event is "Let Loose," and based on the leaked posters, it is speculated that the event will unveil the much-anticipated new version of the iPad and Apple Pencil, which is undoubtedly a strong boost for Apple at the moment.
Some analysts have stated that the new version of the iPad would be an upgrade of the current iPad and a larger iPad Air. It was previously guessed that the upgraded iPad would be announced at the end of March or early April, which is Apple's traditional event time. However, this year, the event has been postponed to early May.
There have been many leaks about the details of the new iPad, including it being equipped with an LED display and the more advanced M3 chip, but currently, Apple has not disclosed any specifications.
The iPad is a tablet computer product launched by Apple in 2010, positioned between a phone and a laptop. It has met the needs of many users for an ultra-portable laptop, and thus, has been very popular since its launch. However, recent years have seen a slow pace of updates with no new versions released, leading to a high demand for a new model.
