As noted by MacRumors, Apple leaker “Instant Digital” reiterates reports that the upcoming iPad Pro will sport a landscape-oriented front-facing camera for the first time.
He says the entire TrueDepth camera array will move to the right side of the device, while the microphone will remain on the top and be centered. Currently, the front-facing camera of both the iPad Pro and iPad Air resides on the top of the tablet. This means the camera is positioned to the left when the device is being used in landscape, such as with a Magic Keyboard.
The new iPad Pros are expected to be announced next month. One rumor says that Apple may offer a matte screen for the first time. Unlike a regular glossy display, a matte display comes with an anti-glare coating that helps minimize reflections on your screen. Since smooth surfaces such as glass or plastic reflect light evenly, they may have a harsh glare and interrupt your content.
The next iPad Pro will almost certainly sport an OLED display. It’s likely to be a hybrid OLED display made with a combination of flexible and rigid materials. This could mean the updated iPad Pros would be even thinner and lighter design than current models.
