Apple’s suppliers have started manufacturing new iPads, Bloomberg reports. Mass production of an iPad with a 9.7” screen — likely the second-generation iPad Air — has already begun, with a source claiming the display will come with a new anti-reflection coating which makes the screen easier to read. A new iPad mini is also starting production and “will probably be available by the end of the year,” though it’s unclear if the display will come with the same anti-reflective coating. The report offers no further information on other rumored changes to the new iPads, such as the inclusion of Touch ID, A8 processors, or improved cameras.
