Rumors said Apple's upcoming "iPad Pro 2" was supposed to be launched this March 2017. But as reported by MacWorld, we will have to wait for a little longer since the release date would be delayed. Indeed, it's a sad news for all the fans out there.

Apple's "iPad Pro 2" would probably be released by May, June or even September this year. We'll just have to wait for the company's official statement about it. Anyway, according to Tech Radar, its price would possibly the same with the previous unit, "iPad Pro", upon launching the product. It was around $599 (9.7-inch model) to $799 (for 12.9-inch) at that time. I might do some penny-pinching as early as now for me to buy one!

Talking about the design, "iPad Pro 2" would be slimmer and water resistant. It would also have a lighter slate but no headphone port, stated by Science Times. In spite of this, let's not get too excited -- yet! Wait till you see its leaked photos! The images showed no exact difference from "iPad Pro", though Apple didn't really officially claim them.

Plus, it is believed that the company will launch a 9.7-inch, 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch models with bigger batteries. Home buttons will be removed and screens will be a True Tone display with a built-in fingerprint scanner. Its cameras would be 12MP for the rear and 5MP for the front, same as to the previous model. But larger lens is expected to be attached to "iPad Pro 2" since Apple used them on "iPhone 7".

Apple's most recent mobile operating system software upgrade is iOS 10. So let's assume that "iPad Pro 2" would have this (plus the other improved features of "Siri", Control Center and broadcast apps). It's also likely to come with an A10x chip processor, more powerful than that of its predecessor. Other features are the improved Apple pencil and 4GB of RAM.
