Apple is probably working on an iPad with a larger 16-inch display. According to a report by The Information, the company may release the device in the fourth quarter of 2023 (but the date could be moved).
Rumors of a 16-inch iPad appeared for the first time. Earlier, insiders mentioned the possible appearance of a device with a screen diagonal of 14 to 15 inches. Apple insider Mark Gurman has been talking about a bigger iPad back in 2021 , and recently said that such a model could arrive in a year or two.
Supply chain analyst Ross Yang also echoed this prediction in June and said that the 14.1-inch iPad Pro with Mini LED display 
Mini LED is an evolution of the already well-known LED technology – more smaller LEDs provide higher contrast than current TVs limited to a couple of hundred dimming zones and ProMotion will be released next year.
Confirmed the 14.1″ iPad Pro is being developed with our supply chain sources. It will have MiniLEDs and ProMotion. Not sure of the timing, but early 2023 may be more likely.

Currently, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro is Apple’s largest model. However, the possible enlargement of the screen would make the device ideal for professional creators. The 16-inch screen would also come in handy when using the Stage Manager feature , which automatically arranges open apps and windows so users can focus on their work and still see everything at once.
The company added external display support for Stage Manager in the iPadOS 16.2 developer beta on Tuesday, which should give users plenty of room to work while using the feature.
Apple shook up its iPad lineup last month with the release of a more expensive entry-level iPad with USB-C, as well as an updated 12.9-inch iPad Pro . But the increase in the price of the base iPad has put it in an odd position: the $449 device (instead of $329) now costs nearly as much as the M1 MacBook Air (if you take the $249 Magic Keyboard Folio and the $99 Apple Pencil, which, By the way, still does not support USB-C).
The introduction of a premium 16-inch iPad could give meaning to the lineup. And while this will likely widen the price gap between the entry-level iPad and the larger, high-end model, the lack of a budget option won’t be solved (that’s probably why ninth-gen devices still sell for $329).
