A third-party case for the rumored 10th-gen iPad appears to have hit shelves early at a Target store in the US.
Twitter user @roeeban shared photos today of a folio for an unreleased 2022 version of the entry-level iPad. The folio was designed by popular accessory maker Speck, which has been making cases for Apple products for well over a decade and likely has sources within Apple’s supply chain for design details on upcoming devices.
Notably, the case has a holder for the second-generation Apple Pencil, suggesting that the 10th-gen iPad will support the newer version of the Apple Pencil. The ninth generation iPad is only compatible with the original Apple Pencil.
Here’s a closer look at the mention of second-gen Apple Pencil support on the box:
Rumor has it that the 10th-gen iPad will feature a new design with a larger 10.5-inch display, a USB-C port, flat edges like the iPad Pro, and a landscape FaceTime camera, while the headphone jack expected to be removed. The device is also expected to feature an A14 Bionic chip and 5G support for cellular models. It’s not entirely clear whether the device will have a Touch ID home button or a Touch ID power button.
The new iPad could be announced this month alongside the new iPad Pro. iPadOS 16 is expected to be released to the public next week.
Apple last updated the entry-level iPad in September 2021, with the then-key features including a 10.2-inch display, an A13 Bionic chip, an upgraded 12-megapixel front-facing camera with center-stage feature support , True Tone and Double the basic memory. In the US, the 10.2-inch iPad with 64GB of storage starts at $329.
