A new iPad tablet with a 9.7-inch screen was launched today

The Apple company announced during this day the launch of a new iPad tablet with a 9.7 inch screen, which in reality is the very model launched last year. We are talking about an iPad tablet with a 9.7-inch screen that has the same hardware as the 9.7-inch iPad Pro tablet released in 2016, except that it only has two speakers and an 8-megapixel main camera.

This "new" iPad tablet with a 9.7-inch screen replaces the iPad Air 2 in Apple's offer in the respective price category, but with a 9-year-old A1 chip and no Apple Pencil support. Many people expected Apple to act in this way with the iPad tablet with a 9.7-inch screen, and the rumors from the past weeks proved to be, once again, 100% true.

Basically, Apple replaced the iPad Air 2 with a tablet that it simply calls iPad, but which has old hardware, but a low enough price to justify its launch. The new iPad tablet is still thicker and heavier than the iPad Air 2, but this is probably because it also has a larger capacity battery integrated by Apple.

Apple will put on sale the new version of the iPad with a 9.7-inch screen on Friday, March 24, so that from then on it will be available to buy online or in Apple stores.

"iPad is the world's most popular tablet. Customers love the large, 9.7-inch display for everything from watching TV and movies, to surfing the web, making FaceTime calls, and enjoying photos, and now it is even more affordable," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing . "New customers and anyone looking to upgrade will love this new iPad for use at home, in school, and for work, with its gorgeous Retina display, our powerful A9 chip, and access to the more than 1.3 million apps designed specifically for it.

  1. Ar trebui sa faci si un articol, despre cum prin aceste update”uri cumva se cam confirma in proportie de 90% event, pt ca sigur lanseaza noile ipad pro cu procesorul de A10X. Si astazi se va lansa 10.3 sigur.Dar nah,doar asa in caz ca nu ai ce face :))

  2. Dar nu este iPad Pro. Este un iPad Air 3 cum ar veni, nu are Pro in nume. iPad Pro 9,7 e cel care era deja. Asta e o varianta mai ieftina

  3. da este fostul Air. Deja apple simplifica denumirile ca erau prea multe…ipad si ipad pro, macbook si macbook pro
