Preliminary speculation
Some preliminary specifications were purportedly leaked when a Target employee prematurely stocked new cases that were not supposed to be released until early April 2021. the new iPad was thought to share the same exterior dimensions as the 11" iPad Pro (3rd-5th generation), but the case design may have been intended for the 10.9-inch iPad Air (2020).[3][4]
