However, it seems that now we will indeed reach a larger size in the Air family. This new model, though, <strong>will not incorporate the mini-LED technology present in the current iPad Pro models<\/strong>; the improvement in the screen will be a notable step forward. This refresh is expected to arrive during the first quarter of next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next major update, <strong>focused on the second quarter of 2024<\/strong>, will be geared towards the iPad Pro models. These devices will receive not only a new chassis design but also the introduction of the M3 chip and, for the first time in an iPad, an OLED screen. This update promises to be a significant leap in terms of display quality and energy efficiency, surpassing even the current mini-LED displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, <strong>in the second half of 2024<\/strong>, Apple plans to update the more affordable models in its lineup, with new versions of the iPad mini and the education-focused iPad, currently in its tenth generation. This update will also mean the discontinuation of the 9th generation iPad, which is still offered alongside the 10th generation model. These changes also include the complete transition from Lightning to USB-C ports in the iPad lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Apple Store\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-m\/p\/14e1eeac-9b2c-11e6-8c57-00163ec9f5fa\/2119089476\/apple-store-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Apple Store<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-store.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-store.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/ipad-folding-development\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">the foldable iPad is reportedly already in full development and expected to arrive sooner than anticipated<\/a>, Apple seems to be gearing up for a comprehensive update to the iPad lineup in 2024, promising significant improvements in terms of hardware and design.
