It seems Apple’s entry-level iPad 2020, as well as the next iPad Mini in 2021, might be big size increases over predecessors.
Gone are the days when Apple’s entry-level iPads were always 9.7 inches – after the iPad 10.2 in 2019 kicked off the size increase race, it seems this year’s upcoming entry-level iPad might be even bigger still.
This news comes from Ming-Chi Kuo, a noted and rarely-wrong analyst who has speculated on Apple’s upcoming tablets in an analyst note (as reported by MacRumors).
According to Kuo, Apple has a 10.8-inch tablet coming out in the second half of 2020, followed by an 8.5-inch device in the first half of 2021. This latter device is likely to be the new iPad Mini, given that size, but the former device is the really interesting model.
