New iPad and fifth-generation iPad mini on the way according to Russian regulatory filings...
I would expect a low priced mini, respective to the Pros. Mostly a spec bump device, maybe an improved screen. That’s about it. If Apple takes 4 years to update it, they have the numbers to say it’s a niche market, especially with the iPhone max and Xr.svanstrom said:Please, please, please… don't make this an all lowbudget-line of iPads with no Pro-level mini.
The screen also limits the need for the “Pro” features. The pencil is less useful, a weaker processor and graphics processor can drive a smaller screen, etc.

Apple highlights iPad Pro's productivity prowess in new ad series
I agree with the original post, love my 10.5 pro but the file management is a joke. Way harder than it needs to be.ttollerton said:
Apple is dedicated to security and privacy. Any sort of crack in the management of the file system opens the system up to malware. It’s a really tough compromise. Apple is making tiny innovations every year to increase convenience, but there is a reason they don’t just let us access any directories or plug in and access any storage device.entropys said:All true, and I use my iPad Pro in many/most of these ways, if not as fast
it’s a great tool.
At present though Apple is overselling it.
Until it has a file management system that integrates into the typical workplace (aka a Microsoft world) and peripheral support like accessing data and transferring files from any old external storage, it isn’t there. Ditto with AirPlay. Useless for presentations as most conference rooms don’t have Apple tvs. You end up tethered like any laptop, except you have a dongle as well of course. Intergration with win10 wireless presentations systems would be handy.
all these problems would be fixed with OS changes. Then it becomes the laptop killer.

Rumor claims 2019 iPhone will get 10MP TrueDepth camera, stick to Lightning
I hope not. I think the lightning is prefect and there’s very little reason to remove having a port in the next decade.racerhomie3 said:Lightning should be the last port on Apples consumer devices.

Apple cuts first quarter 2019 iPhone production by 10 percent, report says
When did iPhone hardware revenues stop being over half of Apple’s business?dedgecko said:Oh look more horseshit about a metric that is not indicative of Apple’s business any more. Let alone estimates from who!? Oh thats right, same dumbasses that dont know how to value Apple beyond a shitty consumer electronics company like Samsung Mobile, Palm, and Xiaomi amongst others out of business or will be within a decade. Also the same dumbasses that misreported the same tripe almost like clockwork for the last 8 years.

Apple appears to have three new Smart Battery Cases ready to go
How about posting a relevant comment and not a, useless, stupid one?StrangeDays said:
Rather than posting on every thread about why you don't like Apple stuff, how about just posting a list of the things you do like? Surely easier.seankill said:You would think Apple could design a more elegant solution. These things look like trash and make the phone too tall.
