Apple’s next event is rumored to center around new iPads, particularly the Air and Pro models. The Pro line is expected to receive a significant upgrade – an OLED display replacing the current LCD and Mini LED options. This promises deeper blacks, richer colors, and smoother visuals perfect for gaming and watching sports.
But there’s another potential benefit Apple might highlight: always-on displays. Similar to the iPhone and Apple Watch, the new iPads could constantly show essential information like time, weather, and notifications, even when idle.

This always-on functionality could transform the iPad Pro into a smart home hub. Imagine your docked iPad displaying your HomeKit controls, music player, videos, or even a news feed when in use. When not actively used, it could switch to an always-on mode, similar to the Standby Mode on iPhones, showcasing the time, weather, and other quick-glanceable information.
With rumors of Siri getting an AI boost at WWDC in June, an iPad Pro doubling as a smart home display becomes even more appealing. This would give Apple a chance to seamlessly integrate Siri into your daily life, whether you’re working or relaxing at home.
