The iPad 10th Gen is coming soon. Based on leaks and rumors, it seems to be a solid step up from last year’s iteration. Here’s what we know.
Apple has been on quite a hot streak when it comes to its tablet offerings, so it should come as no surprise that the 10th-generation iPad is one of the most anticipated upcoming tablet releases. The baseline iPad is never the most technically stunning or impressive, but it’s usually the one most people buy. And we’re expecting the iPad 10th Gen to be no different.
While we wait for the imminent official reveal of the iPad 10th Gen, here’s a roundup of all the information we know about it so far based on leaks and rumors.
As with most yearly device releases, don’t expect a completely new look for the new iPad. Based on a handful of leaked renders that were shared with MySmartPrice, it looks like the 2022 device won’t be too different from the 2021 iPad. However, there are a few key differences, with the biggest being a change in camera design.
According to the leaked renders, it seems like the camera for the 2022 iPad will follow a design close to that of the iPhone X, with an oval camera island. While some versions of the recent iPads have had camera bumps, this is the first time it’s being seen on a base model. As expected, it seems that the base version of the 2022 model will sport just one back camera with an LED flash. There’s currently no word on what sort of lenses the new iPad will sport for either its front-facing selfie camera or its rear shooter.
The other major design change is that the 10th generation iPad seems to be adopting USB-C ports for all models, according to 9to5Mac.
