With students generally not wanting their backpacks weighing them down, they generally would want to consolidate any items they can. This is where Booq comes in, which introduced the Booqpad folio case for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro.

Unlike other folio cases, which typically force you to either use them to protect the iPad Pro 9.7 or not use them at all and carry the tablet naked, the Booqpad includes a separate polycarbonate case that magnetically attaches to the folio. That way, you can remove the iPad Pro 9.7 whenever you are not up for watching movies or typing documents and still have the tablet protected.

Since the Booqpad is a folio case, however, you can prop up your iPad Pro 9.7 for content consumption at multiple angles, with its ambidextrous design playing no favorites between right- and left-handed note-takers. Furthermore, given its support for the smaller iPad Pro, the Booqpad conveniently includes a pocket for your Apple Pencil, in case you do not want to have to worry about where to place it in your bag.

If you prefer analog note-taking and do not carry Apple’s stylus around everywhere you go, the Booqpad also has room for a removable, 50-sheet notepad. That way, you do not have to carry around an iPad Pro 9.7 and notebook separately, saving that much more room in your backpack or bag. If you run out of paper, Booq will be more than happy to sell you additional notepads in packs of three for $10.

Finally, the Booqpad does not block access to the iPad Pro 9.7’s ports, buttons, or cameras.

As for the Booqpad itself, the folio case will run you $60. If the Booqpad sounds interesting enough to drop the dough on, it is now available through Booq’s official website and third-party retailers.

I’m worried about Apple’s new iPads
The back of the iPad Air 5.

Apple typically releases a new version of its products every year, but 2023 was different. That was the first year Apple did not release any new updates across the entire iPad lineup.

We’re now a couple of months into 2024, and it’s rumored that Apple could be dropping new iPad models this month — as early as this coming Monday or Tuesday. After all, a new M3 MacBook Air just came out, so naturally, we should expect new iPads after not having any update last year.

Apple may announce new iPads next month. Here’s everything we expect

When it comes to Apple, we expect a new product refresh annually at this point, including for the iPad. However, that didn't happen in 2023. In fact, 2023 was the first year that Apple didn't release a new iPad model at all, which means we haven’t had new iPad releases since 2022.

It’s unclear why we didn’t see any new iPads last year. However, that should also be an indicator that we can expect some big changes for the next generation of iPad models, which are rumored to come out this year. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has even said that we could see new iPads as early as March.

Apple’s new iPad Pro may not be as expensive as we feared

Apple didn’t release a new iPad last year, which means 2024 should be a banner year for the popular tablets. And now there's been word that the upcoming iPad Pro lineup, likely to include OLED for the first time, might not cost as much as we once feared.

According to a new report from DigiTimes, the upcoming iPad Pro models won’t see a dramatic price hike, as was suggested in December. Previously, it was reported that the 2024 11-inch iPad Pro would cost at least $1,500, while the next 12.9-inch model (which will have a larger 13-inch display) would start at $1,800. The current models start at $799 and $1,099, respectively.
