We’re not sure if new iPad Pros with an M3 chip will be arriving as well, but Apple may likewise bring that to the May 7 launch as well.

As to what to expect with the 2024 iPad line, previous rumors suggest that the iPad Air will not be limited to the usual 11-inch model: Apple might be announcing a 12.9-inch and 10.9-inch iPad Air with Mini LED displays and presumably an M3 processor in order to beef up its mid-range tablet offerings. As for the iPad Pro, the rumor mill points to both 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro variants finally getting a 120hz OLED display, an M3 processor, and a repositioned front camera that’s oriented for landscape use.
As for the new accessories, the Apple Pencil might get updated with squeeze gestures, while the Magic Keyboard is expected to get a redesign with a more durable aluminum chassis and a larger trackpad.
