iPad Pro release date: New Macbook Pro, Air to be overshadowed by Apple tablet?

The rumored iPad Pro may overshadow the upcoming MacBook Pro and Air.

Apple's alleged largest tablet will be a tablet and laptop hybrid. Bloomberg reported that tech giant Apple is already prepping for the 12.9 inch iPad Pro, which is actually bigger than the current iPad Air by three inches and an inch larger than the 11-inch MacBook Air.

The iPad Pro is speculated to come with a separate keyboard that makes the new iPad a perfect replacement for a laptop. The tech giant is said to be working on the massive tablet that is reported to replace the MacBook Air laptop. The iPad Pro is set to target the business and education sectors, which will highly benefit from the device.

Meanwhile, Apple is currently dominating the tablet market despite the reported decrease in shipments in recent quarters. A tablet with a bigger screen display will surely stir the tablet market. This will give the company the edge to take advantage of its popularity in the market.

According to the grapevine, the iPad Pro will come in two variants with two different screen resolutions – 2K and 4K display. Also, there were talks that the tablet's bezels may be hypersensitive as the tablet was rumored to pack pressure sensors to replace the physical home button in previous iPads.

Other rumored features of the tablet are: 2 GB or 3 GB RAM, a 64-bit or octa core processor, Touch ID fingerprint sensor, improved Siri, and better camera and battery. However, the Cupertino-based company has not responded to the rumors going around about its devices. The company also has not revealed any official specs and features of the alleged iPad Pro.

The iPad Pro is rumored to release in early 2015, most probably in March, which is the original release date of iPad tablets.
