Apple Tipped to Launch New iPad Air With OLED Display Next Year

Apple is reportedly working on multiple iPads to launch in the coming years. According to the report, Apple is working on three new iPads, two of which are scheduled to launch sometime in 2023, and one of them is expected to arrive in 2022.

The screen size is similar to that of the current iPad Air, hinting that this new iPad expected in 2022 may be the next-gen iPad Air.

The company is planning narrower screen borders for the new iPad Mini and also looking at removing its home button.
