Amazon really said, "Here's 1GB. You're welcome."

The tablets are expected to keep the current 11-inch and 13-inch display sizes, while focusing mostly on internal improvements, including faster chips. Apple has also reportedly tested a vapor chamber cooling system for the iPad Pro, which could help improve sustained performance and reduce overheating.
