Apple is reportedly splitting its next-generation M7 chip into two tiers — standard and Pro — for the 2027 iPad Pro lineup, according to leaker @智慧皮卡丘. The same source mentions a vapor chamber cooling upgrade, a technology Apple first brought to the iPhone 17 Pro.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has separately reported a spring 2027 refresh for the 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro, focused on internal upgrades and faster chips. Gurman is uncertain which chip will power the tablets. It could be the M6, expected in late 2026 on TSMC’s 2nm process with a 12-core GPU and 200GB/s memory bandwidth, or the M7, slated for the first half of 2027.

The M7 is expected to deliver a substantial boost to on-device AI performance. Standard models could see memory bandwidth reach roughly 240GB/s, up from the M5’s 153GB/s.
