Apple’s new iPad Pro sets the stage for thinner iPhones and other devices, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes in his latest Power On” newsletter.
Over the past several years, Apple appeared to be shifting away from making devices as thin and light as possible. However, Apple’s unveiling of the new iPad Pro in May marked a return to form, Gurman says.
“I’m told that Apple is now focused on developing a significantly skinnier phone in time for the iPhone 17 line in 2025,” he says. “ It’s also working to make the MacBook Pro and Apple Watch thinner. The plan is for the latest iPad Pro to be the beginning of a new class of Apple devices that should be the thinnest and lightest products in their categories across the whole tech industry.”
