"The entry-level iPad, which is currently sold with prices starting at $329, is the most affordable iPad available in the lineup, according to 9To5Mac," IANS reported.  As per report, for this reason, Apple has chosen to keep this iPad with the same design as older iPad models, but this comes with downsides, such as having a Lightning port instead of the more modern USB-C.

The new entry-level iPad will also feature a Retina display of the same resolution as the iPad Air's display. The current 9th-generation iPad has a 10.2-inch LCD screen, so can be expected a slight screen increase to 10.5 inches or even 10.9 inches.

However, more modern display specs such as a wide color gamut with DCI-P3 and higher brightness will remain exclusive to the more expensive iPads, as per the report.

According to the report, to earn the award, Apple Watch users will need to complete a yoga workout that lasts for 20 minutes or more on June 21.
