The 2020 iPad Pro is expected to launch with a new super-fast processor, and today we learned that Apple's next high-end tablet may also get a boost in cellular speeds. The speculation comes from two reports from Taiwanese site DigiTimes, which give us reason to believe that the 5G iPad Pro will arrive this fall.

The information comes from MacRumors and complicates the iPad Pro, which is expected to be released this year. A model with three cameras is said to be coming next month (March 2020), but the site speculates that a 5G model with a faster A14X processor will arrive in the fall.

I'm a bit skeptical of this, as Apple's usual release schedule makes this year's new iPad Pro seem like too much; DigiTimes' sources say that Apple's 5G "product roadmap" will support "sub-6GHz and mmWave specifications." that will support "sub-6GHz and mmWave specifications," claiming that the focus is on the new A-series chips that will be in the iPhone and iPad this fall.

The report claims that Win Semi, the "sole fabricator" of components related to Augmented Reality and Time of Flight technologies that Apple wants to add to its cameras, may incorporate these components by "the second half of 2020," is slightly clouded by a second quote claiming that it may incorporate these components.

DigiTimes' track record is not perfect, but it often provides early insights from supply chain sources that help us understand in advance what Apple is up to. We heard rumors of a 5G-enabled iPad Pro last year, but this time round things seem a bit more concrete.

As we noted in "The Product of the Decade," the iPad has a reputation for longevity, so shoppers may want to measure twice, buy once, and wait for the holiday season to get their hands on this latest iPad Pro.
