Apple iPhone and Mac lineups for this year are yet to be announced. The lineup of Apple products for this year will include the iPhones, Macs, and iPads. According to reports, the Cupertino-based tech giant could also bring the new iPad Pro models. Earlier, it was reported that this year’s iPad Pro model could get a new redesign. This suggests that the upcoming iPad Pro could launch with a glass-back design. Another report suggests that the upcoming Apple iPad Pro 2022 model could launch with MagSafe wireless charging support.

The reports also suggest that the Cupertino-based tech giant will also launch a redesigned version of the MacBook Air and an entry-level MacBook Pro. Furthermore, the tech giant could also launch an iPad Pro 2022 model with MagSafe wireless charging support. In his newsletter, Mark Gurman reveals that the new Apple iPad Pro 2022 could feature a new design along with wireless charging support.
Currently, Apple is testing MagSafe Charging Technology for its new iPad Pro 2022 models. To recall, this MagSafe Charging is a wireless charging system that is based on a magnetic environment. Also Read: Realme MagDart charger looks similar to this device
The Cupertino-based tech giant first brought this technology with the iPhone 12. The report further suggests that this new iPad Pro 2022 may also include reverse wireless charging. This will allow the iPad to act as a wireless charging point on its own.

According to a report from 9to5Mac, the Cupertino-based tech giant has already developed some prototypes for the iPad Pro with a bigger Apple logo. Here, the size of the Apple logo could be the same as the one on the MacBook Pro.
Furthermore, the logo on the iPad Pro prototype is not only larger, but it will also feature glass instead of aluminum. This glass back will allow the MagSafe Wireless Charging technology to work more efficiently. It will be much the same as how it works on iPhones.

MagSafe Wireless Charging inside Apple Logo
In the prototype, the iPad Pro model will get strong magnets to prevent accidents that may occur while charging. Furthermore, the report suggests that this MagSafe wireless charging on the iPad could be even faster than the one on the iPhone. Although this glass back is excellent for wireless charging. But it is also more prone to damage. Thus, this glass back makes the newer iPad Pro more fragile.
On the other hand, the aluminum back will make MagSafe charging difficult. Since the glass is more fragile than metal, Apple will have to make a decision between durability and fast wireless charging. Apple is still confused about which one to go for. Currently, Apple is offering a glass body in the back of the iPhone. Also Read: Apple iPad, iPad Mini with improved display, newer CPU launched in India
Keep in mind that the MagSafe Wireless Charging on iPad Pro 2022 will be much slower than wired charging. The report suggests that it is too early to speculate about the development of Apple’s new iPad Pro 2022. This means that these features can be avoided at the final stage. As things develop, we will share more details about the features and specifications of the upcoming Apple iPad Pro 2022 models.
Larger display and bigger batteries on iPad Pro 2022
Beside this Magsafe Wireless Charging, Apple could also bring a new iPad Pro 2022 with bigger batteries. This will be great for users because the Apple Magic Keyboard drains a large amount of battery. Furthermore, the new Apple iPad Pro could also get a camera system similar to the one present on the iPhone 13.

The latest iPad Pro 2022 could also get a new chipset. There are high chances that the M2 chipset could debut with the new iPad Pro. Also Read: The new iPad Mini could launch in second half of this year
Additionally, there are chances of the existence of a bigger model with a larger display. The all-new Apple iPad Pro 2022 display size could be even larger than 12.9 inches. Some wild rumors also suggested that the Cupertino-based tech giant could also bring a notched display to this year’s iPad Pro. This notch on the display could make the iPad Pro look more like other Apple products.
Although it sounds experimental at this point. There is very little chance that these features, like MagSafe wireless charging, bigger batteries, a larger display, and others, will make it on the iPad Pro this year.

Apple iPod Mini in the making
In another report, the company is also planning to bring an iPod Mini with a narrow screen border. The Cupertino-based tech giant could also remove the home button from the Mini variant of the iPad. To recall, Apple last made changes in the iPad Mini in 2019. In the 2019 model, the iPad Mini comes with an A12 Bionic chipset. Furthermore, it also comes with first-generation Apple Pencil support.
Unlike other models, the Mini variant gets thick bezels on the display. In the new generation iPad Pro and iPad Mini, Apple could also bring the thinner version called an entry-level iPad for students. However, it remains unknown if this entry-level iPad will support MagSafe wireless charging. Also Read: Realme MagDart Wireless Charging mobile phone to launch soon in India
