According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple could release an iPad at the end of the year with a screen raised to 10.8 inches diagonally. The iPad Mini range would also have the right to see bigger with the arrival of an 8.5-inch tablet in 2021.

If we often talk about the iPhone at Apple, the iPad is not outdone. Now with their iPadOS system, they may also be entitled to a facelift very soon.
According to the still very well informed Ming-Chi Kuo, the apple brand would have the idea of launching a new iPad with a screen of 10.8 inches diagonally. The analyst at TF International Securities predicts a sale at the end of the year for the new generation of the touch pad.
A bigger and cheaper iPad Mini?
There remains, however, uncertainty about the range, which would thus be renewed. Kuo is not advancing, according to the MacRumors website. It could be the new version of the iPad, entry-level model of the Californian firm, which is aimed at families and schools and so far had a 10.2 inch screen. But it is not impossible that it is the intermediate touch pad, theiPad Air, which would then push its screen from 10.5 to 10.8 inches. Apple relaunched its range last year after having left it in the closet for almost five years.
In his note, Kuo also evokes renewal foriPad Mini, who also signed his return in the spring of 2019 after being reported missing for many years. Apple’s mini tablet would go from a 7.9-inch screen to 8.5-inch diagonal. In May, the analyst had raised the possibility that the iPad Mini embeds a screen of 8.5 to 9 inches, but returned to its low range. According to him, the mini-tablet would arrive in 2021, at a price probably more affordable than the current 459 euros which place it between the iPad and the iPad Air. The two future iPads would arrive with a 20W charger.
