NEW YORK: The rumoured iPad Pro, which others call as iPad Air Plus, is known as Apple’s bigger iPad version. Mac Rumors which cited Japanese magazine Mac Fan, the new iPad will be larger as it measures 305.31mm x 220.8mm x 7mm or 12 inches x 8.7 inches x 0.28 inches. It will have a 12.2-inch display, it claimed. However, Bloomberg says that the new iPad will probably measure 12.9 inches diagonally. As for comparison, current iPads have 9.7-inch and 7.9-inch displays.
As for the thickness, the tablet will be measuring between 6.9 and 7.5 mm. This is obviously thicker than the recently released iPad Air 2 which is 6.1 mm thin and then the iPhone 6 which is 6.9 mm. It is however slightly thinner than the new iPhone 6 Plus which is 7.1 thick.
The new iPad will reportedly “closely resemble” the recently released iPads Air 2 and Mini 3 in terms of its design. It is seen to have a thin chassis and slim bezels just like the two other iPads. The iPad Pro is seen to get the powerful triple-core A8X processor which is currently in the new iPad Air 2 and the latest iOS 8 as its operating system. The new tablet is expected to be unveiled anytime this year.
