Apple is planning to reveal iPad updates at an invitation-only
event later this month, the technology news website AllThingsD
reported Tuesday.
The next-generation iPad is expected to be thinner than its
predecessor and boast improved camera capabilities. An upgraded
version of the iPad mini is likely to list an improved screen among
its features.
The event will be held on October 22, according to AllThingsD.
Apple declined to comment on the report, which cited unnamed
sources.
The iPad remains the largest-selling tablet, according to surveys,
but its market share is being eroded by rivals using the Google
Android operating system.
Apple was expected to discuss its computer operating system and its
laptop line at the event, timed for the start of the year-end
holiday shopping season.
Apple is coming off a wildly successful launch of two new iPhone
models last month. The California firm said it
sold a record nine million iPhones in the three days after
launching two new versions of the smartphone.
