with a much-needed design refresh that finally put brought the latter up to speed with the rest of the iPad lineup. Not only that, but Apple also added a slightly larger screen, however still non-laminated, a USB Type-C port, the fast Apple A14 Bionic, and a landscape FaceTime camera, as well as 5G support for the cellular model.
While rumors claim that we'll be getting iPad Pros with OLED displays in the coming years, no such fate is rumored for the base iPad, which will likely continue being one of the last holdouts of LCD displays. Having a mini-LED display on the base iPad would be great, but we are likely at least a few years away from this major upgrade .
While the Apple A16 Bionic isn't on the same level as the Apple M-series of desktop-grade chips, it should deliver more than a decent uptick to raw performance. Battery life should also be affected by this improved performance in a positive way, so the already durable iPad would probably last much longer.
