The best kind of drama begins with the two mobile operating systems. Our ears perked up when we read the Power On newsletter. According to a report from author Mark Gurman, Apple is working on an iPad that can be used by both companies.
According to Gurman, Apple is planning to bring the same features to the iPad as the Pixel Tablet. According to Gurman, the idea is to offer something that users can place on a kitchen counter, living room or nightstand. It's possible that Apple is working on an accessory that will allow it to sell it to existing iPad users. Existing users could be converted into using Apple's smart home system.
The company could carry on with this plan. Sometimes, Apple will host an early spring event that will include an update to the iPad lineup, like it did in March when it introduced the iPad Air. With the buzz behind the new Matter connection standard and the maelstrom of devices launching with support this winter, it's the right opportunity for Apple to claim its stake in the smart home. Even though the company is working on a more capable successor to the HomePod, it is still a good way to join the race.
There is still no word on when thePixel Tablet will be released. When we saw that the company had changed some of the marketing on the tablets, we were already scratching our heads. The idea behind the iPad Pro is that it is more of a smart home controller than it is an iPad. We know that there will be a new device from the company in the year 2023. It's not known the exact date.
According to Gurman, there are other Apple hardware on the way. The iPad Pro has an M2 processor. It would be the first significant update to the Pro lineup since the iPad Pro with an M1 processor was launched in 2021. There is hope that Apple will release an entry level iPad. It would pair nicely with a separate speaker dock for anyone who wanted to enter the Apple smart home platform, though it will use the A14 Bionic chip instead of the M series.
