Apple Store Reason Behind Shutdown: Apple Will Launch Its Newest Set of iPads, Rumors Suggests!

Mar 23, 2017 10:53 AM EDT

As early as last week, consumers are all waiting for the update on Apple's newest devices. However, recently, the Apple store went down for a while after midnight of March 21. There is a big question as to why it has been offline and displaying "updated and unavailable."

Apple store updated its status due to maintenance, but speculation suggests that the reason behind its shutdown is that it will launch newest devices as early as this week. Once logged into Apple's website, consumers will see "We've got something special in store for you. And we can't wait for you to see it. Please check back soon." Hence, the speculation became stronger.

Recent reports said that Apple will launch a new lineup of "iPad." One of these is the 10.5-inch iPad Pro, which will be the first ever Apple iPad that will go through a profound design change. It is said that this model will have a new design with narrower bezels.

Rumors even pointed out that Apple will also launch a refreshed 9.7-inch iPad, an updated 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and a 7.9-inch iPad. But the said,10.5-inch iPad Pro has the same size as Apple's present 9.7-inch iPad Pro and will soon replace the said model.

While MacRumors reported that Apple would ditch the physical home button for an iPhone-like Touch ID sensor layered beneath the display, yet it is still unknown if the Company will really remove it for it is unlikely for its product not to have one. Some even reported that aside from iPad Apple will also be adding the special RED edition of iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus and an added 128 GB in iPhone SE.

Whether these reports are true or a hoax, it is good news for Apple users. At this point. it is still unclear what Apple Store could be offering to its consumers. But one thing is for sure it got Apple fans talking and feeling excited about what's to come.
