A purported leaked image of forthcoming 12.9-inch iPad Pro and iPad mini dummy chassis have been posted online by leaker Sonny Dickson. The images show the next-gen iPad mini will feature the same design as the iPad mini 5, while the 12.9-inch iPad Pro looks to feature a reduced camera bump versus the currently shipping model.

William Gallagher for AppleInsider:

As expectations mount that a new iPad Pro may be revealed soon, a long-time leaker has shown off images of dummy chassis designs. Alongside dummies for both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the images feature what’s believed to be the next iPad mini.

Leaker Sonny Dickson says that these are dummy units, so there is no display to turn on yet. That makes determining the width of bezels uncertain — but it appears that both the iPad Pro and iPad mini refreshes feature no marked redesigns.

Separately, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro dummy does appear to feature a less pronounced rear camera bump, as compared to 11-inch dummy, or the currently shipping models.

MacDailyNews Take: Well, we’d hoped to see the mini finally eschew the antiquated Home button, but no such luck.

  1. The iPad mini looks a little “taller” to me. It could be an illusion from camera angle. From better image on Twitter, the Home button also looks slightly lower (maybe 1mm) when compared to my mini (5th gen). If bezel is slightly thinner and iPad slightly taller (without change in width), it could hold a slightly larger display (previously rumored) with same iPad aspect ratio. And keep Home button (yay!).

    1. In honour of Apple Cynic’s constantly reliable cynicism, I have created this video of R2D2. I will never give up my enthusiasm for technology. Even at the expense of my former manhood.

      In tribute to Apple Cynic, for whom I feel a tingling kindred spirit in my altered loins, I hereby present:

      1. As a bipolar transsexual who is gender fluid, sometimes I reclaim myself. Even though I am fully a woman, with my Dingler no longer in place, I am never gonna give you up, John.

        1. As a gender fluid transsexual bipolar artist, I use both honor and honour, colour and color, to-mah-to and to-may-to, energise and energize. It is because I identify from time to time as Canadian and Briton, and also as a Jovian from Jupiter.

          As a creative, I can create worlds at will. An upcoming work of mine depicts applecynic as a voracious, fierce and terrifying super worm, devouring an apple from within and chomping through its delicate fibres with vicious teeth.

          Teeth of honor, with a mind like a steel trap. I am never gonna give you up or let you down applecynic, truly honorable people on this message board need to be celebrated for your true insight into human nature and knowledge of how life on this planet and in this universe really works.

          It’s rare to find such intellect but we are at a Mac site after all, you’re already dealing with a higher quality of mental reasoning.

          This is will be an honor to honour you, whether I honour you as a Briton or New Zealander grrl-power warrior, or I honor you as an LA transcreative truly in touch with her/his feelings for they/them.

          Thank you for being an inspiration and always reminding me to talk funny. It is by the grace of Jobs that we are all here.

    2. I agree why not carefully cut off corners like in Battlestar Galactica or better still triangular screens from This Island Earth, impracticality is just soooo much more fun and everyone has got used to the notch after all.
