In all probability, Apple will present us two new iPad models this year. The biggest innovation: the introduction of Face ID.
Specifically, 12.9” and 10.5” devices are to be released. Both will for the first time dispense with Touch ID and be equipped with Face ID. Although the device will only have a very narrow edge, there will be no notch for the TrueDepth camera. This is made possible by the new LCD of the upcoming iPad Pro model. In addition, facial recognition should also work in landscape format.
Connections
According to Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple could install a USB-C port for the first time and thus say goodbye to the Lightning port. Now Macotacara has also spoken out and underlined Kuo's statement. According to him, several accessory providers have confirmed the switch to USB-C.
The USB-C port should enable video output in 4K HDR on an external display. The user should be able to choose between various options in the settings. It remains to be seen whether it will also be possible to connect external storage media. The elimination of the 3.5 mm headphone jack is also conceivable. The keynote will take place on October 30th in New York. (3 p.m. CET)
