Apple is reportedly implementing new design and features to the iPad Pro 2 and this can give clues to what iPhone 8 will look like.
iPad Pro 2 with minimal bezels
It's been extensively reported that the upcoming iPad Pro tablet will have three variants. The 12.9-inch and the 10.5-inch devices will be marketed for high-end consumers as they will use Apple's latest and fastest processor A10X chip. The affordable variant will have a 9.7-inch display and use A9X processor.
Last year, the fans heard about iPad major refreshes coming in 2017. The tablets are said to have a much thinner bezel, almost edgeless display, and thinner dimension as well.
The piece of information is interesting yet meaningful especially when trying to speculate what iPhone 8 will look like. There are many sources that said Apple is going to equip iPhone 8 with bezel-less display. This report is apparently in line with the upcoming iPad Pro 2 rumored design.
Another updates on specs include a 12 MP iSight rear camera, a headphone jack and quad microphones - and TrueTone display exclusively for 12.9-inch model. In addition to the refresh, Apple will also be updating its Apple Pencil with wider apps support and smoother experience as the tablet's navigation system is enhanced.
Reports suggest Apple will announce iPad Pro 2 in March
Apple may introduce iPad Pro 2 this coming month. An indication to this, is the current 12.9-inch series that's been reportedly 'short in supply' according to MacRumors. The source added that the change in shipping time is often an indication of a refreshed product debut. Corroborating the rumor, a few other sources have consistently reported that the iPad Pro updates will most likely come in March.
