Apple has been on quite a hot streak when it comes to its tablet offerings, so it should come as no surprise that the 10th-generation iPad is one of the most-anticipated upcoming tablet releases. The baseline iPad is never the most technically stunning or impressive, but it’s usually the one most people buy. And we’re expecting the iPad 10th-gen to be no different.
USB-C coming to the entry-level iPad
Perhaps one of the most anticipated changes coming to the entry-level iPad is the switch from Lightning to USB-C. At this point, the entry-level iPad is the only iPad model that still relies on Apple’s proprietary Lightning connector rather than the USB-C standard, which is now available across the Mac lineup.
A14 Bionic chip
While the current ninth-generation iPad features the A13 Bionic chip, this year’s entry-level iPad will be powered by the A14 Bionic chip.
5G
Pretty much every iPhone and iPad model currently sold by Apple supports 5G. However, the cellular versions of the ninth-generation iPad are still limited to LTE connectivity. According to 9to5Mac‘s sources, the 10th-generation iPad will join the more expensive iPads as it will also provide support for faster 5G networks.
It’s worth remembering that Apple sells different versions of iPads with Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + Cellular, so don’t expect to have 5G available on the base model of the new iPad.
