In 2021 Apple will release a tablet with fifth generation connectivity. This was announced in a report by the industry publication DigiTimes.
According to sources, Apple vendors have been successful in designing and developing the AiP antennas required for fifth-generation communications. Analysts have learned that the company plans to launch a premium 5G tablet in 2021. The exact name of the device has not been disclosed, but journalists believe it will be the iPad Pro – the most expensive tablet in Apple’s lineup.
Sources have revealed that the new tablet will support 5G mmWave. This is a special frequency standard that is most suitable for receiving and transmitting data over short distances without losing quality at the highest speed. In comparison, the sub-6GHz standard is capable of transmitting traffic over long distances, but at the same time the data transfer rate is reduced.
The current iPad Pro model was presented in March. The tablet received a dual camera with a lidar, which then appeared in the iPhone 12 series smartphones, and an updated keyboard.
Earlier, journalists who tested iPhone 12 with 5G support spoke about a serious lack of device. According to them, when transmitting data through the fifth generation communication standard, there is a serious load on the battery. According to the author of The Verge, when using 5G, the flagship’s battery was almost completely discharged in 2.5 hours.
