A new iPad has just been unveiled, with 20% faster performance across the board with an A13 neuro engine chipset. The rear camera captures better quality photos in low light and the front camera is now a 12MP Ultra Wide with 122 degrees field of view with their center stage feature, previously seen on the iPad Pro.

A complete redesign, with all screen display, thin, rounded corners, and in new colours including purple, pink, starlight and space grey.
It has the same compact footprint but with an 8.3" display, 500 nits of brightness, wide colour range, and touch ID built into the power button at the top-right of the iPad.
Performance wise, it has a 40% jump in CPU and 80% leap in GPU performance compared to the previous iPad mini. WOW, simply incredible. The neural engine takes a big leap forward too, with a 2x performance boost. Combined with the CPU+GPU, apps can take advantage to make certain tasks incredibly fast.
USB-C port as standard, like the iPad Pro.
Back camera is now 12MP with focus pixels and a f.1.8 aperture. Record in 4K too. On the front, the same 12MP 122 degree center stage camera as mentioned above for iPad.

It's time for Apple Watch (See what I did there?!)...
It's official, the Apple Watch Series 7 is a thing! With their largest and most advanced watch display yet, this looks fantastic. It's been re-engineered for 40% thinner bezels for a maximized screen area without changing the size of the watch.
With the larger display, you get a full size keyboard, word predictions, and can see more text from iMessage and email on the display without scrolling.
It has a crack resistant front display, IP6X certification, and WR50 water resistance - making it the most durable Apple Watch yet, with the same all-day battery life with 33% faster charging. 45 minutes to go from 0 to 80% charge.

USB-C everything... Let's go! I've got USB-C pen drives, hard drives, keyboards and mice so being able to use those on more tech like these new iPad models just makes life easier.
What's not currently USB-C, but should be?

iPhone 13... It's official, and looks great!
