The final quarter of the year is almost upon us, and that certainly means customers wanting an affordable tablet will be waiting for the iPad 9 launch. According to a renowned report, the upcoming slate will not just sport an upgraded processor but a thinner design.

With the iPad 8 featuring an A12 Bionic, we believe that the upcoming iPad 9 will tout Apple’s A13 Bionic, the same SoC that fueled the entire iPhone 11 lineup from 2019. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman believes that the company’s affordable slate will feature an upgraded chipset but does not provide information as to which one will be found underneath the hood.
