Description:
The iPad Pro 2024 could have a similar design to the current model, but with 
different dimensions.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

The most pressing question we have about the iPad Pro 2024 is when it will 
launch, but with the number and frequency of leaks surrounding Apple's next 
premium slate increasing it seems likely that it'll be soon  and weve now 
seen official-looking sketches of the tablets design. 

These CAD (computer-aided design) drawings were shared by MacRumors , and 
while its not clear exactly where the site got them from, it notes that these 
kinds of drawings often leak out of factories producing Apple devices. 

So in theory these are official design images, and as the site notes, case 
makers often trust them enough to design cases based on them. Of course, 
these sorts of sketches would also be easy for anyone with basic art skills 
to create, so you should take them with a pinch of salt; however, we'd note 
that MacRumors does have a fairly reliable track record in these matters.

The images show the rumored 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro 2024 models from the 
front, back, and the bottom edge. The images are a bit light on details, but 
you can see that the overall design looks similar to current models, with a 
camera block in the top-left corner, while speakers and a USB-C port are 
housed on the bottom. A change in dimensions 

The sketches also include dimensions, with the 13-inch iPad Pro 2024 said to 
measure 281.58 x 215.53mm. Thats slightly up from the 280.6 x 214.9mm iPad 
Pro 12.9 (2022) , though the differences could be explained by the marginally 
larger 13-inch screen this year (though theres some disagreement as to 
whether this new tablet will be 13 inches, or 12.9 inches again). 

The 11-inch iPad Pro 2024 is listed as being 249.70 x 177.51mm, while for 
comparison the iPad Pro 11 (2022) is 247.6 x 178.5mm. So that would make the 
upcoming model slightly taller but marginally narrower. 

For what its worth, weve seen these exact same iPad Pro 2024 dimensions in a 
previous leak, so theres a good chance theyre accurate. That leak also 
included the thickness, with the 13-inch model said to be 5mm (down from the 
6.4mm of its predecessor), and the 11-inch model listed as 5.1mm (down from 
5.9mm). So both upcoming iPad Pro models might be slimmer than the current 
duo. 

Hopefully well find out for sure soon, although with a rumored release window 
of between March and June, were not certain how soon. You might also like
