It is rumored that Apple intends to reuse the form factor of the iPad Air, which was launched in 2019, which is lighter and thinner than the current low-spec iPad tablet, which also offers a 10.5-inch screen.

The account also stated that it will provide 4 GB of random access memory (RAM), and it will come with a Home button with Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and its price will start from $ 299.

The company is also pressing ahead with the autonomous vehicle project, as it is working with TSMC to develop self-driving chips, according to a new report from Digitimes.

And Bloomberg News reported a few days ago that a senior Apple official told its employees on Thursday that it had begun building its own cellular modem for future devices, in a move that would enable the company to dispense with Qualcomm components.
