Apple is widely expected to refresh its 9.7-inch iPad and iPad mini in the coming weeks, with each tablet rumored to receive a spec bump, including a faster processor. The 9.7-inch iPad is also expected to feature a larger 10.2-inch display. It would be the first update to the iPad mini since September 2015.
It's unclear how and when the new iPad and iPad mini will be revealed. Multiple reports indicate Apple will host a special event on March 25 at Steve Jobs Theater, but the word is that the keynote will be focused on Apple's rumored subscription-based news and video services, possibly ruling out hardware.
Given that the iPad and iPad mini refreshes are shaping up to be rather minor, perhaps a press release will suffice. March has become a common month for updates to Apple's lower-end iPad models, so an announcement could be just weeks away.
Two new iPad Pro models are also expected in late 2019 or early 2020, but few details are known about them yet.

Go iPad Mini! If they keep the price low I'll be happy to buy one for me, it would make a great test device and would be useful to media consumption as well!
I have absolutely no need for a new iPad. I rarely use the ones I have now. I'd get a new, properly priced mini though. Just cuz.
This kind of thinking I never really understood. I mean yes it's your money and you (not as in you personally) are entitled to do as you please, but if people are spending money on something they do not need just cause, I can give them my IBAN, they'll have the same feel of having spent for something they won't use, and I would be a happy camper, 2 birds with one stone :D
Who would need/want a Mini with pencil support+ the rest? A 1TB option on a low-level consumer device would be pointless as no one would buy it. Obviously the reason there isn't a smaller pro model than 11". If you need pro features, buy the pro device. Although Face ID isn't really a pro feature
Screen size is a preference, not an indication of a "Pro" vs "consumer" device.
Biggest design overhaul since iOS 7 with Liquid Glass, plus new Apple Intelligence features and improvements to Messages, Phone, Safari, Shortcuts, and more. Developer beta available now ahead of public beta in July.
