New iPad Pro Models with M2 Chips Prepared for Release by Apple
The tech world is all abuzz about Apple's upcoming iPad Pro tablets, set to rock our digital life with the powerful M2 chipset. According to GSM Arena, these new devices could drop soon, with an anticipated launch before October 27, which coincidentally is the date when Apple shares its financial results[1].
Mark Gurman from Bloomberg has spilled the beans on the upcoming iPad Pro variants, hinting at 11-inch and 12.9-inch models with minor upgrades and possibly new charging capabilities[2]. However, it's essential to note that Apple's official stance on the devices' charging features remains a mystery[3][4].
Rumors have circulated that the iPad Pro could support reverse wireless charging, allowing it to share battery life with existing iPhones or AirPods[2]. But, as of now, this is just speculation. Apple has been working on reverse wireless charging technology for quite some time, but no device, including iPads, has integrated this feature yet[1][4].
There's also buzz about MagSafe charging for the iPad Pro. Gurman hinted at this possibility as well, but neither iOS devices nor iPads currently support wireless reverse charging via MagSafe[4].
In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for the anticipated iPadOS 16 update, scheduled for release soon[4]. This update to Apple's operating system usually comes hand-in-hand with the latest iOS release but had to be pushed back this year.
Last but not least, if you're finding it tough to get your hands on Apple Watch Ultra's yellow, blue, or orange loops, you're not alone[5]. Delays in these accessories have pushed Watch Ultra shipments to the first week of November for some models, with others arriving even later[5].

The tech enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the launch of new iPad Pro models, equipped with possibly new charging capabilities such as reverse wireless charging and MagSafe. Meanwhile, the anticipated iPadOS 16 update is scheduled for release, while delays in Apple Watch Ultra's yellow, blue, or orange loops have caused shipment delays for some models.
