iPad Refreshes Not Expected Until 2024, According to Rumors
If you’re considering purchasing a new iPad, you may want to hold off for now. According to rumors, Apple has not introduced updates to any of its iPad models in 2023 and refreshes are not coming until 2024.
MacRumors videographer Dan Barbera summarizes all the latest iPad rumors in his latest video, providing an overview of the current status of each iPad model. If you’re interested in learning more, be sure to watch his video.
In 2024, Apple is expected to release refreshed versions of the iPad Pro, iPad mini, and iPad Air. This makes it worth waiting if you can postpone your purchase. The iPad Pro, in particular, is expected to undergo a major overhaul.
The upcoming 11 and 13-inch iPad Pro models are rumored to feature OLED displays and will be equipped with Apple’s latest M3 chip, offering more power and improved efficiency. These updates make waiting for the new models worthwhile.
The iPad mini, which has not been updated since 2021, and the iPad Air, which has been around since March 2022, are both considered older models. The standard iPad was refreshed last year, and while there have been no rumors about updates for 2023, it remains a possibility.
Unless you have an immediate need for an iPad or stumble upon a great deal, it is recommended to wait for the updated hardware expected in 2024. For more information on what to expect from future iPads, check out our recent rumor recap.
