According to high-profile Apple tipster Mark Gurman, that iPad Pro has set the stage for thinner iPhones, MacBook Pros, and Apple Watches. Writing in his Power On newsletter on Sunday, Gurman said that although Apple had appeared to be moving away from making devices as thin and light as possible, the new iPad âmarked a return to formâ that shows that âApple has figured out how make its devices thinner again while still adding major new featuresâ ... | |
