It’s the end of the year but the rumor mill is cranking at full blast, this time with renders of a supposed upcoming 2020 iPad Pro with an augmented camera array — featuring triple rear cameras — that appear identical to your favorite iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max.
According to new renders appearing on iGeeksBlog, supplied by OnLeaks’ Steve H.McFly, Apple is planning to release new iPad Pro 11- and 12.9-inch models, perhaps next March, with enhanced new camera setups. OnLeaks enjoys a good reputation for accuracy and was famously on-point in its renders of the iPhone 11 nearly a year ago.
OnLeaks now predicts the 2020 iPad Pro models may feature the same dimensions as the 2018 models, though it only shared images of the 11-inch iPad Pro, whose future dimensions are predicted to be 248 x 178.6 x 5.9mm (7.8mm including the rear camera bump).
There are no further details on the rear camera specs, but it’s possible they could precisely mirror the ones already on the iPhone 11 Pro cameras, with 12MP wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto lenses. The current 2018 iPad Pro models have a single 12MP rear camera.
Whether the iPad back will be aluminum or glass is also open to question, so the renderings from OnLeak depict both possibilities without a specific prediction. The 11-inch model is shown with an aluminum case, while the 12.9-inch model has glass back — just as an example. The 2018 models both have unibody aluminum shells so it’s possible that the updated 2020 models will be similar.
Other predictions about the upcoming pro tablet from iGeeksBlog include that it will pack an A13X chip, based on its view of historical precedent that Apple always introduces a new chipset in the fall and that the new chip always gets installed in newly released iPads.
While the new camera array is quite different than anything we’ve seen in previous iPads, the reason for an advanced camera setup is open to question, since the iPad — especially pro models — have not been favored cameras for most people. That said, a more professional camera array may be just the thing for business and corporate purposes and a great addition to lure more businesses into purchasing pro-level iPads.
Affinity’s new all-in-one creative app is finally coming to the iPad, nearly a year after Canva launched the redesigned desktop version for Mac and Windows. Creatives have been asking for the iPad release ever since, especially because files created in the new Affinity app cannot be opened in the older V2 iPad apps.
Affinity already has Photo, Designer, and Publisher apps on iPad, but the new release combines those tools into the same unified app that Canva launched on desktop last year.
Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind.
The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
Apple has just launched its latest iPad mini with a notable set of upgrades, including an OLED screen, improved speakers, and a more resilient build. It also gets a new chip, and the whole package costs $200 more than its predecessor. But if you look closely at Apple’s online store, you’ll realize that $699 isn’t enough to get you the most powerful version of the A20 Pro chip inside this tablet. In fact, even if you pay $800 for the 256GB model, you still won’t get the beefiest variant. Only when you jump to the 512GB trim, which costs an absurd $999, do you get the most powerful flavor of the A20 Pro.
The $999 model gets more than extra storage
