iPad Pro 2022 Rumors: Release Date, Specs, Price, and Leaks

Apart from the year 2019, when Apple failed to release an updated version of its tablet, there is no year since it started producing tablets in 2015 that we haven’t witnessed a yearly release of an upgraded iPad. Yes, we know that this tech giant failed to hint at a new iPad in 2022 during its March Peek Performance update, but we probably only have to look at how things have been done before to guess what lies ahead.

However, beyond permutations and inferences, we’ve been hearing a few rumors about what Apple is planning for its upcoming iPad Pro 2022, which this article explores. When is iPad Pro 2022 going to be available? What can we expect of its specs and price? Read on to discover everything we know about this as of now.

iPad Pro 2022 Rumored Release Date

We have no hard-core facts about the exact date iPad Pro 2022 will be out. However, if we critically assess the time its other predecessors, especially the 2020 and 2021 editions, were released, we expect this year’s iPad to hit the market in Fall. Of course, there are always some time gaps between the announcement date and when it would be fully available in the market. But the time gap between announcement and availability does not usually exceed a month.

We don’t expect much difference in screen size, RAM, and storage capacity from iPad Pro 2021 in this upcoming Apple tablet. The storage capacity can extend to 2TB this year, based on leaks from Bloomberg. But we can look forward to an iPad Pro 2022 of 11 and 12.9 inches and between 8 and 16 GB RAM. We also expect M2 chips to replace the current M1 in iPad Pro 2021.

Bloomberg reports also hinted that Apple would like to enable MagSafe wireless charging for its new tablet. Therefore, we’re likely to see the aluminum back of its predecessor replaced with glass. The report also revealed that Apple wants to introduce reverse charging capacity to this device. With this feature, people can flip their slates over and power other Apple products like AirPods and smartwatches with its energy.

The current iPad, particularly the 12.9 model, came with a mini LED display which many users have applauded. Initially, Apple analysts have said that this display would continue in a few more models, but recently, this position is beginning to change. Ming-Chi Kuo and a few other Twitter analysts believe that 2022 may be the year Apple will introduce OLED to its tablet. If that is the case, we are up for a brighter and better display.

Another rumored upgrade to the new iPad is the camera position. There are leaks from Apple disciples on social media that iPad 2022 will witness horizontal-placed cameras instead of the usual vertical position. The idea behind this is to allow landscape mode when taking pictures. How true can this be? Of course, time will tell.

The rumored price of iPad 2022

If the rumored upgrades above are anything to go by, we can expect a price upgrade. The price increase is not likely to be significant, considering that many buyers are still grappling with the current prices. You may want to check the table below for the projected iPad 2022 prices based on the model.

Models Rumored iPad 2022 Prices
11-inch Wi-Fi Model $800 – $2000
11-inch Mobile/Cellular Model $1200 – $2200
12.9 Wi-Fi Model $1300 – $2400
12.9 Mobile/Cellular Model $1500 – $2500

Ordinarily, we would want Apple to beat down the price a bit, but it’s most unlikely going by its antecedent. But to be fair, these projected prices, if they come to stay, are reasonable and not far from the previous year’s. Please, note that prices vary based on storage capacities and other features, even for the same iPad model.

Our Wish List For iPad 2022

Considering all the features of the 2021 iPad Pro, it’s not easy to ask for more from iPad 2022. However, it would be great to have an iPad Pro 2022, whose battery life surpasses the current. That is not to say that iPad Pro 2021 is inadequate in terms of battery, but an extension to about 15 to 20 hours from its current 12 hours would be a considerable upgrade.

Another wish that we earnestly hope that iPad will implement is the color options. iPad Pro 2021 only has two colors – grey and silver –restricting buyers’ choice. Now that iPads are also doubling as fashion statements, Apple will do well to increase the options in the new release. Already, we are beginning to see the color expansion in the 24-inc Mac and iPhone 13. Implementing this for the upcoming iPad will mean a lot to color-sensitive buyers.

Finally, instead of leaving Apple fans to scout for essential accessories like the pencil and magic keyboard case, it would be a massive leap if, for instance, one sees these two accessories already included as one unboxes the 2022 iPad Pro. The Apple Pencil is suitable for sketching and onscreen functions, while the magic keyboard case helps convert the tablet to a MacBook. Yes, I know this sounds way beyond what Apple has ever tried, but it’s undoubtedly one thing most people (including us) would like. We believe its price would be lower than if bought separately if it comes with the iPad.

Wrapping Up

Details about the expected iPad Pro 2022 are still sketchy, and many of the things we know about this tablet are evolving. That is why you need to keep checking this page for more updates. In a few weeks, we may have more authoritative information than we currently do. If so, you can expect that we’d update this article according.

If iPad Pro 2022 comes out by September, it will take the tech world on a ride. Many of us already believe that the current iPad Pro is excellent, but having an improved version will undoubtedly wow everyone. Are you saving to get one, or you’re OK with the iPad Pro 2021?
