iPad Pro, iPad Air 3 and iPad Mini 4 release may happen in October as suppliers will deliver the parts of the devices to Apple's partner Foxconn this month to start the production of the tablets, according to JPMorgan analyst.
According to Apple Insider, JPMorgan analyst told its clients that the tech giant will most likely keep its patterned release in October to launch the new generations of iPad Air and iPad Mini alongside the new "laplet" iPad Pro.
There have been conflicting rumors regarding the release of the new iPads. Previous speculations claimed that iPad Pro, iPad Air 3 and iPad Mini 4 release will be on Sept. 9 alongside new iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus.
Recent rumors stated that Apple will put a spotlight on the new iPad Pro in October. The Cupertino-based company is expected to produce one million units of the iPad Pro each month for the rest of 2015. Similar to other Apple products, the supply of the new iPads may be constrained at launch. Thus, consumers who want to get their hands on the new tablets should place their pre-orders early.
iPad Pro is rumored to pack a 12.9 to 14 inches screen panel with 2,732 x 2,048 pixel resolution and the familiar 4:3 aspect ratio and 264 pixel density. According to Taiwanese media Tech News, Apple will reportedly tap Sharp and Samsung to supply the large 12.9 inch displays. iPad sales continue to decline prompting Apple to release a game changer this year and to re-establish iPad as a "must have" device. Other rumored features of iPad Pro are A9 processor, Type-C USB port, a special stylus, NFC, and Force Touch technology.
iPad Pro is also expected to simultaneously run with iOS and OS X El Capitan, according to Cult of Mac. This hinted that the tablet will be a hybrid device and will cater features of both a tablet and a notebook or laptop.
