According to a new report from Bloomberg, Apple is targeting a fall release for its rumored 12.9-inch iPad Pro, with production starting in September.
Bloomberg says:
Production of the 12.9-inch-screen iPad is now scheduled to start around September because of delays involving the supply of display panels, said one of the people, who asked not to be identified because the details aren’t public.
As Bloomberg notes, this news comes after it was previously reported that Apple was targeting early 2015 to begin production of the larger iPad sibling.
Apple has long been expected to reveal a larger version of the iPad in order to appeal to more niche markets in creative fields. However, no concrete details about the device have been nailed down yet. A 12.9-inch display has been rumored for a long time, but there have also been reports of a 12.2-inch device under the name iPad Air Plus. In any event, we likely have a while to go before any official announcement.
