Apple could introduce slimmer display bezels on upcoming iPad models, according to a new report, potentially marking a design change for the company’s tablet lineup.
The report, citing information published on Chinese social media platform Weibo, claims that future iPad models will feature significantly narrower bezels around their displays.
Apple has not officially confirmed the reported design change or provided details about its upcoming iPad models.
Slimmer bezels reportedly in development
The reported change would reduce the amount of space surrounding the iPad’s display and give the tablets a higher screen-to-body ratio.
Recent iPad Pro models already feature relatively thin designs, but their display bezels remain visible around the screen.
The reported redesign could make the display area appear larger without necessarily increasing the overall dimensions of the tablet.
Design change could extend across iPad lineup
The report does not clearly establish which specific iPad models will receive the narrower bezels or when the redesign will be introduced.
Apple typically updates its iPad lineup across several product categories, including the standard iPad, iPad Air and iPad Pro.
The company has not announced specifications for its next-generation models.
Other hardware upgrades also reported
Alongside the design changes, the report suggests that upcoming iPads could receive faster processors and potentially additional RAM.
It also points to possible improvements in thermal management, although details about the reported changes have not been disclosed.
These claims remain unconfirmed and could change before Apple officially announces its next iPad models.
Apple has not confirmed the redesign
Apple has not commented on the report or confirmed plans to reduce the bezels on future iPads.
The company’s previous iPad designs have retained noticeable borders around the display, partly providing an area for users to hold the tablet without directly touching the screen.
