Worried about fragility, Apple has reportedly canceled plans of a glass rear panel on the 2022 iPad Pro refresh, but there's still hope for MagSafe.

If you’ve been dreaming about an iPad Pro getting the same glass back/metal frame design treatment as the iPhones, there’s some bad news for you. A 9to5Mac report that cites insider sources claims that Apple may have pulled the plug on a glass rear panel makeover for its upcoming iPad Pro. What this means is the iPad Pro will continue to be a polished hunk of metal with crazy fast silicon inside.

After all, iPhones with a shattered rear panel aren’t very pleasant to look at or use. And even though the material quality has improved since the iPhone 8 days, it’s still glass. I’ve personally shed a few bitter tears after cracking my iPhone 12 Mini’s rear panel in its very first bumpy encounter with the concrete floor. And with the added heft that comes with a much larger tablet form factor, an iPad Pro with a glass back sounds like risky business.
