Major iPad Pro And Magic Keyboard Upgrades May Arrive Next Year

Apple is also said to be reimagining the Magic Keyboard accessory for the 2024 iPad Pro models. “The new accessory makes the iPad Pro look even more like a laptop than the current setup and adds a larger trackpad,” Gurman claims in his newsletter. While the relatively small trackpad has been a common complaint about the current-gen Magic Keyboard, the lack of a proper function key row and a dedicated Esc key are also deeply annoying to users of the pricey accessory. Moreover, the white version gets dirty and discolored rather quickly.

Other upgrades reportedly destined for the 2024 iPad Pro include the inclusion of Apple’s M3 processor, which is based on TSMC’s 3nm fabrication process, promising a big jump in raw performance and efficiency. We’ve long heard rumors that Apple has been experimenting with wireless charging tech for the iPad Pro, as well, but the company is reportedly concerned about replacing the metal back with glass — which would facilitate wireless power transfer — due to its fragility.

The upcoming tablets, which reportedly carry the codenames J717, J718, J720, and J721, might not arrive until the spring or summer of 2024. Ultimately, the iPad Pro may serve as the test bed for putting an OLED panel on large-screen devices (read: Macs) in the same way the 12.9-inch iPad Pro was the first to get a mini-LED display. Apple gave the same treatment to the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops later on.
