"Apple's Upcoming Releases: New iPads, M3 MacBooks, and More"
Rumors suggest that Apple's upcoming redesigned iPad Air and OLED iPad Pro models may feature a front-facing camera positioned on the side of the device to allow for an upright orientation in landscape mode, addressing the current off-center placement during FaceTime calls. Code discovered in iOS 17.4 hinted at this change for the next iPad Pro, and a recent leak on Weibo claims that the same design will be implemented in the new iPad Air models. The method for achieving this switch is unclear, especially with the current placement of the Apple Pencil's magnetic charger, but a new Apple Pencil may accompany the updated iPads. Both the new iPad Air and OLED iPad Pro models are expected to launch soon, possibly as early as this month.
