The company is also expected to update the 9.7-inch iPad. It’s supposed to have an A7X processor, battery improvements and enhanced screen resolution.

Both iPads are expected to be slimmer and lighter than their current versions and would most probably be priced at the same range. They also will have iOS 7 out of the box.

Other rumored specs for the new MacBook Pros is faster wi-fi. MacBook Air offered 802.11ac WiFI, which basically means faster connectivity. If the same WiFi configuration comes to the new MacBook Pros, we will only see faster connectivity and better online performance for the flagship laptop.
