For some time now, several media outlets around the globe have been spreading rumors about a possible Apple online event in March. Well, we have new information about the rumor, and this time, it came from Twitter user @fronttron. It is an unreliable source, but whose claims have been corroborated by the respected Korean newspaper Economic Daily News.
According to market news, Apple will hold a spring conference on March 16 to launch three new products, namely iPad, iPad mini, and Air Tags, which will be the two major iPad assembly plants Hon Hai and Compal, the main chip suppliers Supply chains such as TSMC added growth momentum in the second quarter.
According to the news expert @FrontTron, Apple will hold a spring new product launch conference on March 16. The new products announced are iPad, iPad mini, and Air Tags. Another whistleblower @LeaksApplePro also broke the news. Apple is expected to launch new versions of iPad Pro, AirTags, and AirPods in March. Rumor has it that the next-generation iPad Pro will use a mini LED screen, support 5G networks, and be equipped with A14 series chips.
In addition to the annual WWDC and autumn conferences, Apple sometimes holds spring conferences; whether it will release an iPad Pro with a mini LED screen this spring has attracted market attention. There are almost no tablets and laptops with mini LED screens on the market.
As for the new generation of iPad mini, the source claimed that this new tablet has a higher screen-to-body ratio. The screen size has been expanded to 8.4 inches with a narrower frame. However, the new product will not be equipped with Face ID but Equipped with fingerprint unlock under the screen.
In addition, Reuters reported that Apple continues to implement manufacturing in India and intends to participate in the Indian government's new incentive program, which aims to promote the export of Indian computer products; one of its goals is to make India a place for iPad manufacturing.
Foreign Telegraph reported that an unnamed government official pointed out that the Indian government requires Apple to hand over the iPad to a local foundry for assembly instead of a Chinese company. Therefore, it is not yet known which of the three Apple supply chains, including Hon Hai, Wistron, and Pegatron, is responsible for the assembly. Hon Hai is one of the two major iPad assembly plants. At present, Hon Hai has the highest call for the assembly of iPad in India.
The two major iPad foundries are Hon Hai and Compal. Hon Hai focuses on high-end iPads, and Compal is mainly the entry-level version; TSMC is the main supplier of Apple's homemade processors.
According to the nightclub, the event is real and will take place on March 16 Tuesday. The exact time was not specified. The leaker also guarantees that the central theme of the conference will be the presentation of the new generation of iPad and iPad mini, which should receive updates on the processor; the latter will possibly gain an 8.4-inch screen. Nothing has been said about the iPad Airline.
Furthermore, as much as the whistleblower did not mention such a product, Apple is likely to take the opportunity to finally present its smart tracking tag, which is being referred to by the media as AirTag. The idea would be to go head-to-head with the Galaxy SmartTag, a Samsung device launched with the Galaxy S21 in Brazil for R $ 199.
Tracking tags were quite successful a few years ago but ended up falling by the wayside. Most of the models available on the market were of dubious origin, manufactured by obscure Chinese companies, and suffered from synchronization problems in the Bluetooth connection - however, at least, the accessories had the benefit of being much cheaper, in the range of R $ 50 in alternative trade.
So far, Apple has not commented on such an event.
