iPad Pro 2 release date, specs rumors 2016: Next device to have three screen variants

Apple has yet to make an announcement for the upcoming device of the iPad Pro line. The lack of information has led tech-savvy individuals speculate on the possible specs and features of the iPad Pro 2.

Many seem to believe that KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo's predictions will be accurate. Reports suggest that the upcoming device will come in a 10.5-inch screen variant, which will be powered by an A10x processor.

As previously reported, the market analyst claimed the iPad Pro 2 will be produced in three size variants — a 12.9-inch Pro, a 9.7-inch Pro, and a new 10.5-inch Pro. The new size will reportedly be introduced by the tech giant to gain better sales in the commercial and education markets.

Earlier this year, Apple launched the iPad Pro line, which it claims has the thinnest and lightest iPad screen to date. Currently, the line has 9.7-inch and 12.9-inch tablets. 

iPad Pro user Jonathan Hassid recently went public to talk about the iPad Pro's screen feature. The iPad owner paid £1,086 or $1,323.40 for the 256 GB version, with an extra screen-protecting layer. Though the owner admitted that he occasionally lets his children use the iPad, he was shocked when he opened his tablet and found a large crack on the screen.

The iPad owner wasn't sure about what caused the crack, but what surprised him most was the reaction of the AppleCare staff. The personnel instantly shot down the possibility of a manufacturing defect. More importantly, the person demanded £556 ($609) for the repair.

If Apple intends to sell more gadgets, many of its loyal customers are hoping for better services in the future.

Apple is expected to launch the iPad Pro 2 in Mach 2017. Watch out for more updates on Apple's upcoming gadgets.
