What if the OLED iPad Pro’s ‘one more thing’ is the Apple Pencil’s obvious AI twist?
Apple will finally unveil its 2024 iPad lineup that so many people have been waiting for. I know I'm excited about one particular model, the 11-inch OLED iPad Pro, though I will wait for Apple's iPadOS 18 demos at WWDC to decide whether or not I buy one. Others might be eying the 13-inch iPad Pro or one of the two iPad Air 6 variants that Apple is expected to unveil on Tuesday. And many will buy a new iPad as soon as preorders open.
In addition, Apple will unveil new accessories for the iPads, including a new Magic Keyboard for the Pros and a new stylus that appears to be called Apple Pencil Pro.
BGR already told you that a Pro version of the Apple Pencil might be the big surprise at the end of Apple's iPad event. But that was before Apple dropped a huge teaser on its website. The Apple logo was briefly erasable; you only needed to hover your mouse over it. This was a hint that the next-gen Apple Pencil might get some sort of new gesture to support erasing content across apps. But that's not the only angle, considering that we're in the age of generative AI.
An Apple Pencil Pro with erasing capabilities would be the tool to use on the iPad to edit images. And since Apple won't unveil its genAI software novelties until iPadOS 18, I wonder if Apple might drop a cheeky "one more thing" demo at the end of the event to tease the AI features coming to the iPad Pro this fall.
