From the "iOS 12 beta 5" provided as a beta version for iOS 12 developers, it became clear that the icon indicating the iPad will be changed. Icons are obviously bezelless design, and the next iPad Pro is seen to adopt a bezelless design to redesign the design.

Meanwhile, MySmartPrice predicts what the next 12.9-inch iPad Pro design will be based on the latest leak information. In addition, rendering images are also created based on the predicted designs and released.

This is MySmartPrice's predicted new 12.9 inch iPad Pro design. My iPhone has adopted a curvilinear design so far, MySmartPrice predicts that the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro adopts a more linear design. Since the antenna line is included on the back and side, you can see that it is not the back of the glass like the iPhone 8 / X, but the back by metal parts.



The front is like this. Since adopting the bezelless design eliminates the home button, it seems to adopt "face ID" of face authentication function, but there is no notch (notch) at the top of the screen like iPhone X. The TrueDepth camera seems to be stored in a part of the bezel that remains a little. In addition, the four corners of the screen are the first rounded as the iPad series.



Although adopting the bezelless design, since the display size does not change with 12.9 inches, the body size will become more compact.



Earphone jack is gone from the side.



Also, an object like a mysterious button is placed in the center of the right side, but it is not clear what this is exactly.



You can see that the terminal " Smart Connector " for connecting to the "Smart Keyboard" on the dedicated keyboard is moving from the side of the main unit to the bottom of the back. As a result, the Smart Keyboard of the dedicated keyboard will be installed vertically with the iPad Pro, because the Face ID does not work under the condition that the iPad Pro is held horizontally.



It is noteworthy that these rendered images were created based on the leak information and the outflow circuit diagram, not the fan's expectation. In addition, MySmartPrice has released a movie that can see the created 3DCG model from 360 degrees from various angles.
