According to multiple reports, Apple is developing six new iPad models, and among those devices are 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Air and 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models. Now, a new leak reveals the dimensions of three of those four tablets.

According to a new report from 9To5Mac, the 12.9-inch iPad Air will measure 280.6 mm x 214.9 mm x 6.0 mm, the new 11-inch iPad Pro will measure 249.7 mm x 177.5 mm x 5.1 mm, and the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro will measure 281.5 mm x 215.5 mm x 5.0 mm. Expect the dimensions of the new 11-inch iPad Air to remain the same as its predecessor.

As you can see, 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro will be extremely thin, much thinner than the current models. Also, the 12.9-inch iPad Air will be thicker than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro despite the latter packing more features, which is quite surprising, especially when you consider that the iPad Air models are all about being compact, slim, and light.

Other reports suggest that two iPad Pro models will feature OLED displays and the Apple M3 chipset, whereas, the two iPad Air models are expected to feature LCDs and the Apple M2 SoC. Samsung Display and LG Display have already started producing OLED screens for the two tablets, and Apple is expected to launch the four iPads next month.
