It is surprising that there is no update on iPad lineup in 2023. I suspect there might be big changes coming and when the rumors of OLED and 12.9 iPad Air comes out, I am trying to pull everything together below with speculated pricing: -
Well, the suspected lineup seems logical and very Apple way....to increase prices 😅
MBP14 with M3 indicates that Apple will position M3 to be higher tier than M2 MBA with price increment of $300 to justify miniLED.
I believe Apple will use ProMotion on upcoming iPad Mini and Air to justify increment of $100. Of course, iPad Air 12.9-inch will slot in between Air 10.9 and Pro lineup..
The new lineup actually looks similar to iPhone lineup with 2 screen sizes and normal + Pro segmentation.
What do you guys think??? If you have different opinions, feel free to let me know...
