An upgraded tablet is expected in the second half of next year.
Apple is expected to update the iPad Pro in 2025 with an M5 chip, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo in a report about upcoming smart home products. Kuo believes the new iPad will “enter mass production” in the second half of 2025. That could mean that the M5 iPad Pro may become available to customers in the fall or about 18 months after the release of the M4 model.
A recent report by The Elec (subscription required) stated that Apple has ordered M5 chips from chip manufacturer TSMC and that the M5 will be manufactured using a 3nm process. Previous reports stated that the M5 will be a 2nm chip, but Apple has reportedly switched to 3nm over cost concerns.
