iPad 7 10.2-Inch Specs, Price, Release Date Announced, Here Are The Details

Tim Cook’s company has confirmed rumors dating back as far as early August 2019 and introduced an entry-level 10.2-inch iPad 7 as a successor to the previously available 9.7-inch 6th generation model.

This isn’t the first time that we have heard about the potential existence of this model.

Granted, not many people actually expected this announcement to form part of this “By Innovation Only” event, but we actually started seeing rumors about the 10.2-inch variant back in early August when DigiTimes made an entry-level prediction. A late September prediction was in force at that time.

As expected, the new iPad model will essentially operate at the entry-level end of the spectrum. This means that it will be Apple’s affordable option for those who don’t have the ability to splash out on the more performant “Pro” models, or, simply put, for those who really don’t need that level of specification and who would rather pay a lower price for a model which suits their needs.

Specs, Features

At the heart of this latest iPad is the A10 Fusion chip, which is quite the bang for the buck given the price point the 10.2-inch iPad now starts at. Of course while the slightly larger display is something to be excited about, so is the fact that there’s not a Smart Connector in place, allowing the use of Smart Keyboard.

As for the Apple Pencil, there’s support for the 1st gen. Apple Pencil as well. For those interested in the camera, it happens to be an 8MP shooter; a pretty standard affair, but there’s the price to consider as well.

What colors is the machine available in? You have the Silver, Space Gray, and Gold.

Of course completing the entire affair is the iPadOS experience, tailored for the iPad family itself.
