Tech giant Apple has officially announced the date for its upcoming event. Without making it clear what it is announcing, Apple has invited the media to a special event that will take place on May 7. The company is anticipated to introduce a new lineup of iPads at the upcoming event. Rumours suggest that an OLED iPad Pro is likely to arrive.
Apple has confirmed a “special Apple Event” that is set for May 7th at 7 AM PT (7.30 PM IST). The invitation features the catchy phrase “Let Loose” and a visual of an Apple Pencil, which allude to the upcoming release of new iPad models because the firm hasn’t released a new iPad since late 2022.
Previous speculations claimed Apple was going to introduce it through a “press release” rather than an event. But Apple has now officially said that there will be a virtual event.

It is anticipated that a 13-inch iPad Pro and a new 11-inch iPad Pro will be released together. In terms of display size, the 13-inch iPad Pro would be the largest iPad model ever released by Apple. There might be variants with relocated, horizontal front-facing cameras. Rumour has it that an OLED display will be included in both iPad Pro models. The switch to OLED will increase the brightness and improve the viewing experience of iPads, which currently use mini LED panels.
There are rumours that the next iPad Pro models will include glossy and matte screen options along with smaller bezels.
In addition to the standard 10.9-inch display sizes, the next iPad Air lineup may have a 12.9-inch display size. Mini LED displays might be included with both models.
It is anticipated that the M3 chipset would power the tablets and could offer MagSafe wireless charging. Expectations also include a revised Magic Keyboard. It may also feature a bigger trackpad and an aluminium construction. In addition to this new Apple Pencil could also be tagged along.
