The iPad Pro 2022 could support MagSafe through a glass Apple logo

It looks likely that there will be an iPad Pro 2022 making an appearance at some point this year, and new details have emerged about one of the new features that could be added this year – namely, MagSafe wireless charging.

It's a feature we've seen on recent iPhones, and according to 9to5Mac it could be added to the iPad Pro this time around. However, it won't be implemented in quite the same way as it is on the iPhone, and Apple is having difficulty developing an iPad Pro with a fully glass back to enable wireless charging.

Instead, it seems that Apple is working on a prototype tablet with an Apple logo on the back made of glass. This would mean that the rest of the tablet chassis can be made of aluminum, but MagSafe will be able to work through the logo.

Stronger magnets

Reports of the next iPad Pro supporting MagSafe have been swirling around for months, but 9to5Mac says that the original glass back design "may have been scrapped" because it would make the device too fragile – hence the alternative design with the large glass logo.

Other information revealed in the latest leak points to stronger magnets being fitted to the iPad Pro than there are in the iPhone 13, which means a more reliable connection and faster charging speeds for the upcoming tablet.

A larger battery, a camera module similar to that found in the iPhone 13, and a new chip – possibly the M2 – are all possibilities for the 2022 iPad Pro, according to 9to5Mac. As for a launch date, it'll probably be around the middle of this year.

Analysis: MagSafe is a logical next step for the iPad Pro

The 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro are Apple's flagship tablets, and it makes sense that they would have the latest and great tech that Apple can offer. Right now that includes MagSafe, which has been on iPhones since back in 2020.

It's wireless charging, but wireless charging with added magnets: that means MagSafe-branded chargers can snap into place and offer more convenient, faster charging for the battery. Other wireless chargers work with the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 13, but only MagSafe chargers give you the full 15W charging rate.

With that in mind it's no surprise that Apple is working hard to bring MagSafe to its tablets, even though charging up larger devices isn't quite as straightforward as charging up phones. The new technology has been reasonably successful for Apple, and it does have a lot of MagSafe accessories to shift as well.

From the latest 9to5Mac report, it sounds like it's by no means certain that MagSafe will be included on the 2022 iPad Pro models. As we've seen in the past, Apple won't launch a feature unless it's fully reliable and ready for users to get their hands on.

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It?

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It? On every Windows drive—even external USB drives—you’ll find a “System Volume Information” folder. You’ll only see it if you have Windows set to  show hidden files and folders , but it’s always there. So what is it for? Why Can’t I Open the Folder? On drives formatted with  the NTFS file system , this folder’s permissions are set to prevent everyone from accessing the folder, even users with Administrator permissions. Double-click the folder and you’ll see an error message saying the “location is not available” and “access is denied.” This is normal. That’s because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions. What Is It For? Among other things, Windows stores  System Restore ...

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side , DigiTech Geeks Mobile Computing News

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side The Black Friday iPad deals are never any good, but in 2021 they've somehow failed to clear that laughably low bar, and we've still been surprised by just how poor the Apple-tablet discounts are this year. Seriously – we're talking just $50 / £50 off super-power iPad Pros , and sometimes no discounts at all on entry-level or Mini tablets – and this outlook very likely won't change for the Cyber Monday iPad deals . If you were wanting to buy a new iPad in the Black Friday sales, it might seem like you're plum out of luck. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for deals in your region). It's not all bad news though, not as long as you're willing to try new things (and aren't committed to the Apple ecosystem already). That's because there are a few worthy tablet Black Friday deals on Android slates that make them much, much more tempting than an iPad. Sure, sure, sure: i...
