According to Apple statistics, 60% of users choose the 9.7-inch iPad as their first tablet device. At this autumn's conference, it was announced that the new 10.2-inch iPad will replace the existing 9.7-inch version.
The new 10.2-inch iPad will replace the 9.7-inch iPad and become the seventh-generation entry-level iPad. It is equipped with an A10 Fusion processor, which doubles the computing performance. At the same time, it can also use the larger, higher-density screen with a wider viewing angle, coupled with the new iPadOS 13 operating system for convenient use of the operating interface, and Apple Pencil for handwriting operations (still only supports the first-generation Apple Pencil).
In addition, Apple also stated that the 10.2-inch iPad will continue the existing 9.7-inch user experience, including Touch ID, keyboard cover accessories and other operating modes. It also boasts that it is made of 100% recycled aluminum, echoing Apple's commitment to environmental protection.
建議售價將以329美元起跳，教育方案售價則從299美元起跳，預計會在9月30日開放出貨。而支援10.2吋iPad使用的第一代Apple Pencil建議售價依然為99美元，專屬鍵盤保護蓋則為159美元。
After the launch of the 10.2-inch iPad, except for the new 7.9-inch iPad mini that supports Apple Pencil, the current large-size iPad series has been upgraded to adopt screen specifications of 10 inches or larger.
