Leaked iPad Air 3 Case Images Suggests Potential Design Changes

Apple will hold a press event in March where it will announce new Apple Watch models along with a new and updated iPad Air.  Latest update from this front comes in the form of a leaked case design for the iPad Air 3 which suggests potential design changes.

The image that appeared online shows a cut-out for the Smart Connector. Apple had introduced this feature first in the iPad Pro, to ensure stable connections with other devices. Looks like the Smart Connector could feature in the iPad Air 3 as well.

The leaked design also shows four cut outs for speakers -a feature reported only a couple of weeks ago. The cut-out for the camera on the back is also longer and bigger, hinting at the presence of rear camera flash for the device.

However, rumours that stem from cover designs should be taken with a hint of salt. Cover designs are often conceptualised and circulated without an official confirmation from the company, as is true for this iPad Air case as well.

The iPad Air 3 is expected to be launched in March, alongside iPhone 5se and the new Apple Watch variants.
