In the early morning of April 14th, Apple has just issued an invitation letter to the media for the special event in the spring of 2021, confirming that the event will be held online on April 20, local time in the United States. It is expected that new iPad products and other products will be launched at this time.
Apple’s annual spring conference is not as regular as the September iPhone conference. In recent years, it has sometimes held offline events to launch important products, such as the iPhone SE generation; sometimes it will also release new products through official website updates. Such as AirPods 2nd generation or iPad mini 5th generation.
The current US epidemic is still at risk, so Apple’s press conferences are almost all conducted online. Moreover, this press conference was held slightly later than in previous years.
Apple still keeps secrets strictly, but because of the high degree of attention, there have been various rumors about the products at the spring conference. Based on the past, this event is expected to launch a new generation of iPad Pro. Compared with before, the new iPad Pro may use a derivative chip of the A14 series. The current guess may be A14X or A14Z. This route is consistent with the 2020 iPad Pro, which is to improve GPU image performance.

Apple has been making the iPad Pro a productivity tool for the past two years, and a stronger chip is a predictable direction. In addition to the core processor, 5G networks will also appear, making the 2021 iPad Pro the first iPad with 5G connectivity.
Another obvious improvement of this generation of products may be the screen. In the past six months, multiple news channels have revealed that the 2021 iPad Pro will use a mini-LED screen. In addition to better display and lower energy consumption, a more critical factor may be that Apple has been deeply involved in the mini-LED field. For many years, this technology should have reached the commercial stage.
But at present, there are different opinions on which product uses which screen. Some media concerned about the industry chain believe that this time only the 12.9-inch iPad Pro will use a mini-LED screen, while the 11-inch version will be OLED.
Another tablet product, iPad mini 6th generation, is also likely to be launched at the spring conference. The mini-series has not been updated for two years. But compared to the iPad Pro, the mini may not have changed that much. Although it has a larger screen-to-body ratio, the screen display area may exceed 8 inches (currently 7.9), and the processor is updated, but the overall outline has not changed, and there is still a home button. And Touch ID fingerprint recognition system, the interface is still Lightning.
In addition to the two tablets, it has been rumored for a long time that the AirTag anti-lost tracker may finally be officially announced. The round metal piece of this product, which is slightly larger than the coin, has been rumored many times, but it has not been released yet. AirTag can be connected to a mobile phone via Bluetooth or UWB ultra-wideband, and it can be tied to the key of the schoolbag to track items and prevent loss.
As Apple opened its “find” system last week, third-party products became the first product to connect to Apple’s search network, and Apple should also release its own products. In addition, a new generation of Apple TV set-top boxes, Apple’s third-generation AirPods headsets may also appear at the spring conference. But their chances of appearing are not as sharp as the iPad.
