Apple iPad Pro 2 Update: To Come In Three Different Variants

As days pass by, Apple's major WWDC event's dates arrive closer. The Cupertino tech-giant is expected to launch the 2017 iPad Pro at its much speculated WWDC event in June. Now, a new report regarding the device suggests that Apple might introduce not two - but three new sizes in the 2017 Apple iPad Pro 2 edition.

According to a report published by Apple Insider, a recent leak seems to claim that Apple is introducing three new display variants for its upcoming Apple iPad Pro 2 device. In other words, apart from the 9.7-inch and 12.9-inch models, the company will also be introducing a new 10.5-inch display variant. The report goes on to quote a proficient leaker who goes by the name of Benjamin Geskin who took to Twitter yesterday to post alleged pictures of the upcoming 10.5-inch Apple iPad Pro 2.

According to the Twitter post he made yesterday, the Apple iPad Pro 2 seems to have already gone into mass-production. As per pictures, it can be interpreted that the upcoming 10.5-inch iPad Pro will probably have a similar design just as the previous iPad devices. The home button on the latest device is located at the same spot as the previous products. Several reports suggested that the new iPad Pro might give us a glimpse into what the iPhone 8 might look like. However, given that the iPhone 8 is widely speculated to sport no home button at all, the upcoming iPad Pro might not fall in any other such category.

In the past, as reported by MacRumours, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had predicted that Apple was planning on launching three iPad variants, as mentioned above. It seems like this is finally turning out to be true. The official release date of the device has not been confirmed yet, and thus, the above-given information must be taken with a grain of salt.
