Apple redesigned its lineup of iPads at its “Let Loose” May event.

Tim Cook declared that this was "the biggest day for iPad since its introduction" as the presentation got underway, according to USA Today.

Along with major improvements to the iPad Air and iPad Pro, Apple also unveiled a new Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard designed just for the iPads.

To go along with the recently released iPad Pro and iPad Air tablets, Apple unveiled the Apple Pencil Pro.

Following are the Apple products launched during the “Let Loose” event.

Apple Pencil Pro

A gyroscope on the pencil allows you fine control over the tool you are using. You can squeeze the pencil to bring up a selected tool.

In addition, FindMy will now work with the new Pencil Pro, allowing you to find it if you misplace it. Like its predecessor, the Pencil Pro is magnetically charged and carried.

Apple Magic Keyboard

According to Apple, the Magic Keyboard has been updated to be lighter and thinner in order to be compatible with the new, thinner iPad Pro.

It will have an aluminium trackpad, a function keys row, and two colours to match the new Pro.

There will be two sizes available for the Magic Keyboard: the 11-inch will cost $299, while the 13-inch will cost $349.

Apple iPad Pro

Apple is referring to the display on the upcoming iPad Pro, which will come in space black and silver, as Tandem OLED.

The new display technology will be available on the iPad Pro in both sizes.

Aside from that, the iPad Pro will now contain the M4 chip—a complete upgrade from the M2—which Apple claims will make the tablet "four times faster."

Apple iPad Air

There are now two display sizes available for the iPad Air: an 11-inch display and a bigger 13-inch display. Everybody will have the new M2 chip.

Other notable modifications include the addition of spatial audio to iPads and the placement of the front-facing camera on the landscape edge.

Not only do we have space grey and starry finishes, but we now have blue and purple alternatives.
