David Hanak Since this year's September keynote, it was expected that in addition to the classic iPhones and Apple Watch, a new iPad Pro and possibly a new MacBook will also be introduced. In the end, the last two mentioned did not happen, and given that, according to all indications, Apple is really working on them, we can expect another conference in October. The arrival of the new iPads has essentially been confirmed after mentions of a product called "iPad12.1Fall" were found in the iOS 2018 code.

Amaya Toman Apple yesterday published the first developer beta version of iOS 12.1 and many users started looking for hints of what could await us in the coming months. Several mentions of "iPad2018Fall" were found in the Setup app that users use when setting up a new device, which was not there for iOS 12. We can confirm with certainty that we will indeed see new iPads this year. However, aside from this confirmation, the code also revealed some new information about what the new iPad Pros will come with.
Probably the most fundamental innovation is the support of Face ID in horizontal iPad holding. That is, an option that many iPhone X users lack, because until now Face ID only worked in normal holding mode (in the case of iPhones). However, due to the use of the iPad, the ability to recognize the user in horizontal or vertical mode is logical. The new iPhones do not have this achievement, as it requires a different configuration of sensors, which would simply not fit into the cutout space.
Other novelties, which are not too fundamental, is, for example, the synchronization of Memoji between Apple devices, in this case between iPhone and iPad. There is still speculation that the new iPad Pros should arrive with a USB-C connector, instead of the classic Lightning. For many users, this is wishful thinking, but in practice it is hard to imagine. However, anything can happen in the final. The keynote at which Apple will present the new iPad Pros and perhaps also the new Macs/MacBooks should take place sometime in October.
