According to Otakara the device will continue to feature a Touch ID Home button and the lightning port. It is also expected to have a full-lamination display, anti-reflective coating, P3 wide color support and True Tone.

Besides this ninth-gen iPad, Otakara also shared some details about the next-gen iPad Pro. According to reports the upcoming refresh will not see any changes in terms of display size or housing, but the “A-series chip performance could be significantly improved”.

Many iPad rumours have also suggested that the new iPad could come with a reduced pricing with Apple selling it for $299 instead of $329.
