Popular analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has new information on a future Apple product, which is expected to be the new iPad mini. It is suggested that Apple is planning to launch one next year and then, there’s some information about the alleged foldable iPad too. Check out the details below.
Kuo’s latest tweet reveals that Apple will launch a new iPad mini with a new chipset either by the end of next year or in early 2024. The ‘new processor‘ is expected to be the iPad mini’s main selling point. While there’s no word on which chipset the upcoming iPad mini will use, it could either be the next-gen A-series or its M-series chip.

Kuo also talks about the foldable iPad. It is said that the foldable iPad won’t be a replacement for the iPad mini in 2025. This is probably because if Apple plans to launch one, it will come with a hefty price tag, which is not an iPad mini’s league. To recall, an earlier report suggested that Apple will launch a foldable iPad in 2024 first and then might venture into the foldable phone space, which could happen in 2025.
