Apple may use Tuesday’s “Hi, Speed” event to tell potential buyers of the new iPad Air<\/a> when they can purchase the tablet, weeks after the company launched the model during its “Time Flies” event. <\/p>\n

\n

During the first “Time Flies” special event on September 15, Apple introduced<\/a> a redesigned iPad Air, but aside from telling customers it would be available sometime in October, an exact date wasn’t offered during the presentation. With the second Apple event<\/a> looming, it is suggested Apple may advise of when the tablet will actually go on sale. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

According to serial leaker Jon Prosser<\/a> on Twitter, Apple “will give you the launch date of iPad Air during the October 13th event.” Given the lack of date from Apple itself for its release, it seems plausible a public event will include an update on shipment dates. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

While even at this stage it is unclear when the tablet will go on sale, other reports suggest it could take place soon. One report from October 9 claimed shipments<\/a> of new Apple products that included the iPad Air were arriving at Apple stores, but were marked for opening at a later date. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The iPad Air 4 was upgraded to an iPad Pro-like design, with a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina Display, an edge-to-edge design, and USB-C. The Home button’s removal meant Touch ID has migrated to the power button, with the tablet powered by the A14 Bionic processor. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When it ships, the new iPad Air will cost $599 and $749 for the 64GB and 256GB Wi-FI models, $729 and $879 for the respective cellular versions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
