Apple product release roadmap for 2017: 3 iPad models in the pipeline?

Fresh reports suggest that technology giant Apple’s product roadmap for 2017 will include new iPad models. The report also quotes a reliable analyst who estimated that Apple would roll out as many as 3 next-gen iPad devices this year.

Now, according to an AppleInsider report which quotes reputed KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple would also launch an affordably priced 9.7-inch iPad this year in addition to a 10.5-inch edition as well as a 12.9-inch iPad Pro device. The devices are likely to hit the market during Q2 2017.

Earlier, there were reports that the new iPad models would feature a 3.5mm headphone port. Apple’s latest iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus is bereft of headphone ports. Hence, the reports hold a lot of promise for old school Apple loyalists.
