Will Apple launch the new iPad Pro with a 5nm A14X chip, mini-LED screen early next year?

Apple launched the iPad Pro 2020 in March this year. Compared to the previous generation, this version owns a few minor upgrades with a more powerful A12Z Bionic processor, 6GB RAM and 128GB internal memory for the standard variant, as well as a new camera system with LiDAR sensor to measure distance.

However, in many ways, it can be said that the return of the iPad Pro is not really impressive, especially when Apple takes nearly 2 years to launch a new model. According to the report, the company will “refresh” the iPad Pro product line again later this year, in which this version will use the mini-LED screen and the more powerful A14X Bionic processor.

Some sources say Apple has delayed the launch of products using mini-LED screens until early 2021 due to the influence of COVID-19. Famous Leaker   @L0vetodream has now also confirmed that the next generation iPad Pro with A14X chip will be launched in Q1 or Q2. The 11-inch model was developed by Apple with the codename J517, while the 12.9-inch model is codenamed J522.

Before appearing on the new iPad Pro, the A14X chipset will be launched with the iPhone 12 series later this year. This chip is built on TSMC’s 5nm process, has stronger performance and better energy saving than the A12Z Bionic on the iPad Pro 2020. In addition, Apple also integrated the Snapdragon X55 modem to support network connectivity. 5G for iPhone 12 series.

Earlier yesterday, there were some rumors that Apple will launch the 4th generation iPad Air later this year. This device will use a USB-C connector and has a larger, thin bezel like iPad Pro 2018 and iPad Pro 2020.
