Apple is rumored to launch the iPhone 15 Pro on September 12 with increased base and max storage options. Now, a fresh report indicates that the iPhone-maker could also offer bigger storage on the 2024 iPad Pro that could max out to 4 TB.
The details were posted by frequent leaker yeux1122 on the Korean social platform Naver. While the source doesn’t have the most solid history of leaks, it would only be logical for Apple to expand the iPad storage tiers on its devices, including its premium tablet lineup.
How much the iPad Pro 2024 with 4 TB memory could be priced
Accordingly, Apple is going to add a 4 TB option with the iPad Pro that will debut next year, which will be doubled from the current iPad Pro (review) that can be had with 2 TB storage. It’s unclear if the base storage will also be doubled from 128 GB to 256 GB or whether Apple is going to phase out this option.
There is no information about the price of this configuration. However, we can make a comparison with the 2 TB iPad Pro in 12.9-inch size retailing the highest end iPad Pro with 2 TB retailing at $2199 (€~2040), which is $400 pricier than the 1 TB iPad Pro. Hence, the 4 TB 2024 iPad Pro may even command a price around $3000.
More than the memory, the 2024 iPad Pro is tipped to feature an OLED screen. The panel is seen to reduce the bezels on the slabs and slightly increased screen real estate by 0.1-inch each. Furthermore, the custom Apple M2 chipset is likely to be replaced with a more efficient and faster Apple M3.
In addition to the tablet itself, the Apple was recently reported revamping the Magic Keyboard of the iPad Pro. It is said to feature a larger trackpad and aluminum chassis to make the device a more compelling alternative to MacBook laptops.
Do you think it is ripe for manufacturers to offer devices with 256 GB as the starting storage? Would it make ridiculous for Apple to offer a 128 GB option on its iPad Pro? Tell us your answers in the comments.
