We could see the USB C port on the upcoming available iPad

iPad is a great device for many different tasks. Whether you are looking for media consumption, games, reading, writing or light work / study – this universal device can handle most tasks of the average user. Of course, for now it will not replace the laptops of many people, especially experienced users. However, it is slowly moving from a stretched iPhone to a Mac-like product. This is especially evident in iPadOS 16 – which supports application windows with resizing iPad M1. Although Apple has reviewed the higher-end models from the inside out in recent years, the affordable iPad remains neglected. Yes, it usually receives annual upgrades. However, it still includes the classic ancient chassis from ancient times and, of course, the favorite port of Cupertino Lightning. The good news we’ve all been waiting for is that Apple can switch to USB C on the upcoming iPad at an affordable price.

If the rumors are really true, Apple may stop selling iPads with Lightning ports this fall. The affordable iPad is the only model still satisfied with the lower port. That makes sense, given that it costs $ 329. The company is obviously more focused on higher-end versions – which tend to have more demanding, professional customers.

In addition to giving up the Lightning port, the iPad 10 can find a larger 10.5-inch display – a slight increase of 10.2 inches. This leads us to believe that we may see other design changes – including the potential withdrawal of the physical start button. After all, even for a charming device, the iPad 9 looks very outdated in our modern world. We certainly hope that Apple follows the same design language that it applied to the iPad Air.

Finally, the iPad 10 may pack the A14 Bionic chip – which powers the iPhone 12. Although Apple has brought the M1 chip to the latest Air model, we certainly don’t see this happening on the affordable one soon – if ever.

Are you planning to buy the affordable iPad 10? Why or why not? Let us know in the comments section below.
