Well, it’s not quite the iPad Pro branding that we presumed but it is a new and more powerful 9.7inch iPad. Earlier this morning, Apple got rid of the iPad Air 2 branding and just calling this new one the 9.7inch iPad – plain & simple.
With this one, you’ll get a 9.7inch IPS LED display w/ 2048 x 1536 + 264ppi, a faster 64-bit A9 CPU + M9 co-processor, options for 32GB + 128GB of storage, built-in stereo speakers (not quad-speakers), Touch ID on the Home button, armed w/ an f/2.4 8MP rear-facing shooter w/ no flash + a 1.2MP FaceTime camera, a10-hour battery life, and weighing in at only 1lb.
It will arrive in your choice of Silver, Gold, and Space Gray color options w/ pricing starting at $329 for the Wi-FI and $459 for the Wi-Fi + LTE model. You can order yours this Friday, march 24th at 8:01 AM PST.
So who’s still buying iPads out there?
