CNBC: Apple reportedly set to launch new iPad Pros in coming days

Apple is set to announce a new 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro in the coming days, according to Bloomberg.

It gives Apple a chance to get even more new products on store shelves ahead of the holiday shipping season, following the fall launches of its new iPhone 14, Apple Watches and AirPods Pro. The December quarter is typically Apple’s biggest. And it may help the company boost its iPad sales, which dipped 14% during Apple’s last holiday quarter and 2% during the most recent quarter.

The new iPad will feature the M2 chip, which is the newest chip in the current MacBook Air laptop, the report said. The upgrade is the first to Apple’s iPad Pro in a year and a half and it should offer a speed boost of 20%, according to the report. But the tablets may not offer many other new features and will reportedly look the same as current models.

Bloomberg said Apple is also working on a new entry-level tablet with a USB-C port, which can provide faster charging and quicker data transfers, but it’s unclear when that will launch.

An Apple spokesperson wasn’t immediately available to comment on the report.

For those of you who like Basketball and are ready for it, Apple has announced the availability of NBA 2K23 in the Apple Arcade store beginning on October 18th, just in time for the 2022 - 2023 Basketball Season.

"The Greatest" mode includes 20 of the greatest NBA players from the past and present, including Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and many others. The 2K23 edition of the game also includes new in-game commentary from Kevin Harlan, Brian Anderson, Greg Anthony, Grant Hill, or Doris Burke.

Like the NBA 2K22 edition of the game, there remains an "Association" mode that tasks players with managing an NBA roster by making trades, signing free agents, scouting up-and-coming prospects, and controlling their team's finances, as well as a "MyCAREER mode" where players can start their own NBA journey with a custom player, position, and jersey number. There are also "Quick Match" and online multiplayer modes.

Apple Arcade is a subscription-based gaming service accessible through the App Store. Priced at $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year in the U.S., the service provides subscribers with access to over 200 games across the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.
