Redesigned iPad mini, iPad Pro wireless charging … reverse charging … several developments for tablets are in preparation and more or less advanced at Apple for the short and medium term, Explain Mark Gurman chase Bloomberg.
In 2022, Apple would revolutionize the iPad Pro
The following information comes from journalist Mark Gurman at Bloomberg. Even if the source is serious to say the least, it is currently impossible to verify the veracity of these rumors. We therefore encourage you to take them with a grain of salt. So Apple would work well on a new iPad Pro and iPad Mini. No release date has been specified yet, but the smaller of the two tablets could hit the market as early as this year.

Gurman reports that Apple could give a new finish to its iPad Pro of 2022. Aluminum would be abandoned in favor of glass, which would allow the tablet to offer wireless and reverse charging. The device could then work with MagSafe and the accessories that result from this technology introduced with the iPhone 12. This reverse wireless charging would also allow an iPhone or AirPods to be charged directly on the back of the tablet.
A new iPad mini this year
In the short term, we must expect the first redesign of iPad mini for six years, with thinner borders around the screen. The removal of the home button has also been tested but the final choice made by Apple is not yet known.

Last month, analyst Ming Chi-Kuo also spoke of a sensitive review of the small tablet but without saying more. In one of his previous reports Ming Chi-Kuo had mentioned a larger screen, going from 7.9 ″ to possibly 8.5 or even 9 ″. But the Touch ID button would not disappear (unless Apple uses the same biometric power button as on the iPad Air?). In any case, this new iPad mini remains announced for the end of this year 2021.
More or less at the same time as this iPad mini, it will take a new entry-level iPad, concludes Bloomberg, simply described as thinner than the current model.
