2017 is set to be a big year for Apple – as it will be the 10th anniversary of the original iPhone. However we will still see more products coming out in the same year, especially tablets and computers. The next iPad is set to be the same size as the Apple iPad Air 2, and may not feature a physical home button.

The source did not say how the home button will be replaced, but we suspect that it will be the capacitive button that is currently on the new iPhone 7 – it is not a physical home button per se, but with the Taptic Engine in the phone – it simulates the sensation of pressing down on a button.

According to other rumours, the iPad 10.9 inch will also be almost bezel-less, and will have the same physical dimensions as the iPad Pro 9.7 inch. We will share more information as it pops up, so stay tuned to TechNave for more Apple iPad news
