ET News claims to have leaked Apple’s iPad plans many years into the future.
iPad Air 12.9″ not until 2026?
Even if they don’t know all the details, because it’s only about panel sizes and associated OLED launches, but that’s also one of the most important things.
Let’s jump straight to the sizes of iPads launching in 2024 through 2027:
- 2024: As previously rumored – 11″ and 12.9″ iPad Pro with OLED and ProMotion
- 2026: New iPad mini with a larger 8.7″ screen with OLED panel technology – increasing the screen from 8.3″
- 2026: 10.9″ iPad Air with OLED
- 2027: 12.9″ iPad Air with OLED
Waiting an almost unreasonably long time with the larger iPad Air
Note that the iPad Air will of course be upgraded before 2026, but not with OLED. If the iPad mini doesn’t get a bigger screen or OLED until 2026, don’t expect more than better performance, maybe next year. The iPad mini with the current design and screen size was launched in September 2021.
It is also interesting that Apple wants to sell a larger iPad Air, but not before i 2027. Why, or whether, Apple chooses to wait so long with a larger iPad Air is not good to say – it may be because the company is waiting for OLED panels to become cheaper and for them to be able to combine the panel technology with a thinner design.
There are also revelations about the MacBook Pro and Air from the same source:
- 2025: 16″ MacBook Pro – OLED
- 2026: 13″ and 15″ MacBook Air – OLED
- 2026: 14″ MacBook Pro – OLED
