While Apple has recently unveiled the new iPad mini, according to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman, the Cupertino tech giant is already deep into developing the entry-level 11th-generation iPad. The report suggests that the entry-level iPad will be released alongside the iPhone SE 4 and iPad Air in the spring.
Gurman says in the latest Power On newsletter that the entry-level iPad will have the same design as the 2022 version and receive a speed boost.
It’s unclear if this device would support Apple Intelligence. The device would need an A17 Pro or A18 chip, up from the current A14 chip powering the base-level iPad.
The iPad mini had an A15 Bionic chip, but got updated to an A17 Pro, so while the last entry-level iPad had an A14 chip it’s also possible it might get an A17 Pro.
