We’re on the verge of a major Apple launch: The company will launch new iPad models for the first time in more than a year and a half. This is something that is already taken for granted and should have happened at the beginning of May, and now it has been discovered that iPadOS 17.5 leaked one of the main new features of the next iPad Pro.

Apple released the first beta version of iOS 17.5 and iPadOS 17.5 a few days ago, and some interesting things were found while analyzing the code of the new operating system. There are references to a new Apple Pencil model and 9to5Mac found A new display firmware for four new iPad models. This means that the new iPads will have a screen with different technology.

A significant change will come to the screens of the new iPad

iPad Pro will have new screens

9to5Mac I found references A new screen format for models named iPad16.3, iPad16.4, iPad16.5 and iPad16.6. These identifiers correspond to different next-generation iPad Pro models. These will be available in two different sizes with Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi+Cellular options, so there are four models.

The found display software shows this: These four iPad models will be equipped with OLED displays It also confirms that there will be different suppliers for the 11- and 12.9-inch versions. Samsung and LG are expected to be responsible for the production of OLED displays for the new iPad Pro.

arrival It has been rumored for a long time that OLED screens will be added to the iPad Pro series. and all the evidence is in this direction. From Apple’s supply chain, from the company’s expert leakers, and now from the software itself they’ll be using.

OLED technology will finally come to iPad

9to5Mac also found New references to the new Apple Pencil model. In addition to the “squeeze” move you found above, there are two new moves: “Long Spin” and “Double Spin”. The Apple Pencil 2 only has a double-tap gesture and no surface pressure sensor, so you can’t use these new gestures, which appear to be designed for a new Apple Pencil model.

Having all of this in iPadOS 17.5 means that: new iPad models will come with iPadOS 17.5 installed, a version that has just started development. So, we will not see these new models on the market until this version is ready. Speculated with a There is about a month left in the development of iOS 17.5 and iPadOS 17.5, which will be released the week of May 6.
