I expect the stream to be mostly about iPads.
There are still a few weeks left until Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, but the corporation simply cannot wait that long to make some additional news. On May 7th, it has planned a virtual event to take place. The stream will begin at ten o’clock in the morning Eastern Time (ET), and it will be accessible on the Apple website as well as the Apple TV app (and most likely YouTube).
Apple has not been completely clear about what to anticipate, as is their customary practice. The animated image that was included in the announcement, on the other hand, depicts a hand holding an Apple Pencil in the middle of a stylized and colourful Apple logo. All of this points to the fact that the event will very certainly be centred around iPad.
Speculation has been circulating for some time that Apple is likely to update the iPad Pro and iPad Air in a couple of sizes in May with M3 and M2 CPUs, respectively. These rumours have been circulating for some time. It is anticipated that the business will incorporate OLED screens into the iPad Pro, in addition to entering the market with a larger iPad Air measuring 12.9 inches. Reports indicate that Apple may be planning to release a new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro as well as a refreshed Apple Pencil in the near future. Regardless, it has been more than two years since the last iPad Air was released, and it has been approximately 18 months since the M2-powered iPad Pros were introduced, so both of these products are due for an update.
