Overview

  • Bloomberg reports that Apple will add a second front-facing camera on the portrait edge to improve Face ID reliability and video calling when held vertically.
  • The upcoming models are expected to be the first devices to ship with Apple’s M5 chip, which is slated to precede any Mac implementation until early 2026.
  • Ming-Chi Kuo says mass production will begin in the second half of 2025 with the iPad Pro likely debuting in September or October.
  • Aside from the dual front cameras and the upgraded chipset, the iPad Pro’s form factor and core specifications are anticipated to remain the same.
  • The M5 chip is said to leverage TSMC’s third-generation 3nm N3P process to deliver gains in performance and power efficiency.
