Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman says we shouldn’t expect to Apple launch any new iPad models until around March 2024.
In the most recent issue of his “Power On” newsletter, Gurman said that the new Apple Pencil with USB-C comes ahead of an iPad refresh in the spring. He also said that Apple has been working on the 11th-generation iPad, seventh-generation iPad mini, and sixth-generation iPad Air for some time.
Apple’s next wave of iPad updates will likely include the abovementioned iPad models, at the very least.
Gurman added that he expects to see the first-generation Apple Pencil be discontinued alongside the ninth-generation iPad since there will no longer be any new iPads on sale from Apple with a Lightning connector at that point.
