[Asia Economy Reporter Seulgina Jo] It is expected that Apple's first 5G iPad Pro will be released in the first or second quarter of next year.


IT specialized media The Verge reported on the 3rd (local time), citing IT Twitter user L0vetodream (@L0vetodream), that the newly released 2021 iPad Pro will be equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon X55 5G modem, supporting 5G for the first time on an iPad Pro.


The release timing is expected to be in the first or second quarter of 2021. L0vetodream also mentioned that the 2021 iPad Pro might feature a mini LED display.


Previously, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also stated that a 12.9-inch mini LED iPad Pro would be released in the third quarter of 2020. However, this forecast was made before the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). It is analyzed that the release timing was delayed due to the impact of COVID-19.



Major foreign media evaluated that the reason Apple is interested in mini LED displays is because they have advantages similar to OLED in terms of color and brightness.
