The currently largest iPad from Apple measures almost 13 inches – but apparently the end of the flagpole has not yet been reached. Upcoming iPads could get even bigger. Also because the boundaries between tablet and laptop are becoming more and more fluid.

At least that's what Mark Gurman writes from the news magazine Bloomberg (via 9to5Mac). Accordingly, Apple is working on iPads with even larger screen diagonals, so far the limit is 12.9 inches. However, every new iPad screen size needs several years of lead time, which is why Apple's plans for a larger iPad are still at an early stage. Thus, the iPads should continue to appear in the usual sizes of 11 and 12.9 inches in 2022.
