Internal Foxconn Sketch Said to Be of Apple's 'iPad Pro' SurfacesA new internal sketch of Apple's larger-screened iPad Pro has surfaced by way of a Foxconn worker (via
Nowhereelse.fr,
Google Translate), showing what may be our first look at the large tablet and its physical features.
The employee who captured the sketch notes that initial testing phases for the larger iPad were halted last summer after Apple received new prototypes, but adds that mass production on the device will begin soon. The source also notes that the tablet will be between 6.9 and 7.5mm thick, and feature four integrated speakers with two on the top and two on the bottom.
Previous rumors have suggested that the iPad Pro is expected to feature a screen size between 12.2 and 12.9 inches along with an A8X processor, 2 GB of RAM, and a Touch ID fingerprint sensor. Most recently, Japanese magazine
Mac Fan published possible schematics of the upcoming device, which suggested that the tablet would carry a 12.2-inch LCD display and carry the name "iPad Air Plus".
It is currently unknown as to when Apple would launch its larger-screened iPad, with reliable KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo
suggesting that the tablet would not enter production until the second quarter of 2015 due to
increased attention on iPhone 6 Plus production. However, with the supply of its larger phone
greatly improving as of late, it is possible that Apple is now ready to put its full production efforts towards its larger iPad for a launch later this year.
