Apple will host a virtual event on May 7th, ahead of WWDC

Estimated read time 2 min read


Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference is only a few weeks away, but the company simply can’t wait that long to make some more announcements. It has scheduled a virtual event for May 7. The stream will be available on Apple’s website and the Apple TV app (and likely YouTube) and it will start at 10AM ET.

As usual, Apple hasn’t been totally forthcoming about what to expect. However, the animated image it included in the announcement shows a hand holding an Apple Pencil in the center of a stylized, colorful Apple logo. That indicates the event is very likely going to be focused on iPad.

Rumors have been swirling for some time that Apple was likely to update the iPad Pro and iPad Air in a couple of sizes in May with M3 and M2 chips, respectively. The company is expected to bring OLED displays to the iPad Pro, while adding a larger 12.9-inch iPad Air to the lineup. Reports suggest a new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro and a fresh Apple Pencil may be in the offing too. In any case, it’s been over two years since the last iPad Air and around 18 months since the M2-powered iPad Pros debuted, so both are due for a refresh.
