Akumangazi ukuthi umndeni wakwa-Apple we-iPad uzofika nezimanga ngonyaka ozayo ka-2018. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngokufika kwe-iPhone X kukhathalogi, nangalowo mklamo ovuselelwe ngokuphelele, singazi yini izinhloso zamaCupertino ezinhlwini zawo ezidumile ze amaphilisi.
Manje, kuyiqiniso ukuthi sekushiwo okuningi ngohlobo lwe-iPad Pro, mhlawumbe amamodeli afiswa kakhulu ngumphakathi. Khumbula ukuthi sinezinguqulo ezintathu ongakhetha kuzo: 9,7 amayintshi, 10,5 amayintshi kanye 12,9 amayintshi. Ngamanye amagama: bonke abasebenzisi bazoba nemodeli evumelana nezidingo zabo. Manje nathi sinawo imodeli ye-iPad (i-iPad 2017) ethathe isikhundla se-iPad Air 2 futhi ibekwe njengebanga lokufaka le- tablet kusuka ku-Apple. Yebo, ngokusho kombiko wokuthi lokhu kushicilelwa DigiTimesLe modeli izoba nenguqulo entsha ngonyaka ozayo.
Azikho izici ezaziwayo, yize abahlaziyi bebikezela ukuthi ukwakhiwa kwe-iPad entsha kuzoba nokufana okuningi ne-iPhone X entsha; okusho ukuthi, ngaphandle kwenkinobho yasekhaya futhi unikeza ukugqama okugcwele esikrinini. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngalokhu kususwa komklamo, kuzofanele sikwenze cabanga ukuthi uhlelo lokuvula luzoba yi-Face ID, esinye sezici ezinhle kakhulu esizithola ku-iPhone yesikhathi esizayo.
Ngokunjalo, ama-bezels wesikrini nawo azoncishiswa futhi sizothola idizayini engakhululeka ngokwengeziwe ukusebenzela kuyo. Vele, ikhamera ye-TrueDepth izoqhubeka nokusungula isiqhingi esincane - i- "Notch" edumile - phezulu, abanye abasebenzisi abazama ukuyifihla - noma ukuyifihla - ngezinye izinhlelo zokusebenza noma amaphephadonga. Noma kunjalo, kungathakazelisa ukubona ukuthi i-iPad 2018 ecatshangelwayo ingazuza ifrosesa yalesi sizukulwane sama-iPhones noma uma, njengoba bekulindelekile, ungathola iprosesa isetshenziswe esizukulwaneni esedlule (i-iPhone 7 ine-Apple A10).
Ekugcineni, isimangalo esikhulu salokhu kungena kwe-iPad yintengo yayo, eqala ngentengo yama-euro angama-402, inani eliphansi kakhulu elibhaliselwe lolu hlobo lwemishini esayinwe yi-Apple. Ngabe lo mkhuba uzoqhubeka ku-iPad 2018?
