New leaked renders show off the iPad Pro 2020 rear camera

We're expecting Apple to get around to refreshing the iPad Pro at some point next year, and newly leaked renders give us some idea of what to expect when the upgraded slates finally break cover.

The pictures provided by the usually reliable @OnLeaks and iGeeksBlog don't show the actual device itself, but rather how the 2020 iPad Pro might look based on the rumors and speculation we've heard so far.

What you'll notice immediately is that triple-lens rear camera array up in the corner on the back of the Apple tablet – that spec and design matches the configuration of the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max.

It wouldn't be the first time and it's unlikely to be the last time that Apple borrows from its iPhones to enhance its iPad range, so we can well believe that next year's premium iPads will come with a camera upgrade.

Rumors of improved camera optics for the next iPad refresh have been swirling for a while now, and it seems this is one of the few areas where Apple's slates can actually be given a substantial upgrade.

The usual internal component improvements and perhaps tweaks to the display have also been predicted, though the overall look of the iPad Pro is expected to be largely the same as the 2018 models.

Last year Apple refreshed its entry-level iPad, the iPad Mini, and the iPad Air, which means the iPad Pro model is the odd one out – something that Apple will be looking to rectify during the course of 2020.

The dimensions of the two 2020 iPad Pro slates are expected to match the ones from 2018, so the screen sizes will once again be 11 inches and 12.9 inches, as before.

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase . Airship, meanwhile, has been expanding its platform beyond push notifications to cover customer communication across SMS, email, mobile wallets and more.

He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
