The big daddy of iPhones this year is named iPhone Pro Max. Here’s how much it’s going to cost you in Australia (it’s heaps), and when you can get it.”]

The upcoming seventh-generation iPad comes jam-packed with new features after the series has largely remained the same for some years.

It will sport a 10-inch screen, replacing the sixth-generation’s 9.7-inch display. If taking selfies on your iPad is your flex, you’ll be glad to know it comes with a 8MP camera with HDR so you’ll come out looking reasonably crisp given it’s a tablet.

The new iPad now fully supports a smart keyboard if that’s what you feel previous generations were missing.

Importantly, it’s a whole lot cheaper than the iPhone models, let alone any MacBook entries, so it’s a good entry point for those wanting to utilise Apple’s architecture without selling everything they own.

The 32GB model is retailing for $529 for the WiFi model and $729 for the Wi-Fi and cellular model when it drops later this month. It’s bigger companion, the 128GB starts at $689 for the WiFi model and $889 for the WiFi and cellular model.

It comes in silver, gold and space grey.
