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

Rumors hinting at the development of two OLED iPad Pros have been swirling 
for a number of months, but were now hearing that Apple is working on a third 
OLED iPad Pro model that could blow its siblings  and its competitors  out of 
the water. 

According to serial Apple leaker Revegnus , this new iPad Pro will be the 
largest and most powerful iPad model ever, boasting a massive 14.1-inch 
display and a super-fast M3 Pro chipset. 

Yes, you read that right: Apples top-tier iPad Pro will reportedly rival its 
current best MacBooks  and the upcoming MacBook Air (2023)  in the power 
department. And itll do so by using an advanced cooling system rather than 
noisy fans, too. 

 TechSmart notes that this M3 Pro processor could be limited so as not to put 
too much strain on the iPads cooling system  meaning the new device wont 
quite match the next MacBook Pros for power, despite sharing the same chipset 
 but the thought of Apple releasing a tablet that offers more power than 
todays best laptops is extremely exciting. The 14.1-inch iPad will have an M3 
Pro.Apple is crazy!!!They are building a monsteriPadOS will also get a big

If indeed this monster-sized iPad Pro does see the light of day, it would 
surely have to run a modified (read: MacOS-style) version of iPadOS 17, 
making the experience of using Apples best iPad more akin to the experience 
of using its best MacBooks. Bigger screen, bigger price Apple's current 
largest iPad starts at $1,099 / 1,249 / AU$1,899 (Image credit: Future) 

Naturally, having the MacBook experience in the palm(s) of your hand will 
inevitably come at the expense of your wallet. Apples successors to the iPad 
Pro 12.9 (2022) and iPad Pro 11 (2022) are already rumored to cost more than 
certain MacBook Pro models , so this 14.1 inch iPad Pro will demand even 
deeper pockets. 

How deep, you ask? Well, given that the next 13-inch iPad Pro is expected to 
start at approximately $1,800 (around 1,500 / AU$2,700), logic suggests that 
Apples mega-sized model could demand figures as high as $2,000 (1,600 / 
$2,900). 

Why so expensive? All three iPad Pro tablets are strongly rumored to feature 
tandem OLED displays  which could help them match the best OLED TVs in terms 
of brightness and increase the life of their respective screens  but these 
panels reportedly cost twice as much to produce as the mini-LED panels 
currently used in todays top-of-the-range iPads. 

It figures, then, that Apple would look to offload these additional costs 
onto consumers. Whether those consumers are willing to part with a small 
fortune in exchange for a big iPad, though, is an altogether larger question. 

Apple's range of OLED-equipped iPad Pros is expected to hit shelves in 2024, 
but we wouldn't take that prediction as gospel given the level of technology 
we're talking about here. Before that, the company could debut another new 
iPad Pro (2023) alongside the iPhone 15 line.
