Given the base iPads in particular often end up in education environments due to the price point this is a relevant feature as a case won't stop all damage.

Really wanna see a fully laminated display although, it seems rather odd they're refreshing the base ipad next year considering they already released one this year

YUKI93, 15 Aug 2025That means 8GB RAM. Thank goodness I hold off this year... moreWell, iPad 11th has essentially the same rejected processor as the iPhone 14/14 Plus, given the similar performance between nerfed A16 Bionic in iPad and A15 Bionic with 5-core GPU. 14/14 Plus eventually use the A15 Bionic 5-core, just to gatekeep LPDDR5 technology to the 14 Pro models. A16 Bionic, nerfed or not, strictly features 6GB of LPDDR5 RAM.

Instead, it's toned-down (5-core CPU and 4-core GPU) to deliver similar performance to A15 Bionic 5-core found in iPhone 13 Pro/Pro Max and 14/14 Plus.

What's the use of portable form factor if it can't be used outdoors?

Remember Apple's excuse back then for not allowing stage manager on anything below the M1 iPads? Yeah, they lied.
But with the free windowing, stage manager is almost pointless imo.

I have the iPad A16 but don't want to install beta OS, so cannot prove it.
