Apple has been quiet about the release date of the much-awaited "iPad Pro 2" but rumors are swirling that June 2017 will be the date the tablet with Touch Bar becomes available. The stock issue of the "12.9-inch iPad Pro" gives a hint that the release date is near.

According to a report from Tech Times, the Apple Store are having delays and issues with stocks of the "12.9-inch iPad Pro." People who are looking to purchase the tablet are having a hard time getting one. And it's not just the Apple Store, as Apple retail stores are also having issues with the said tablet device.

The report said that the issue, though, has actually been going on for months already, as the Apple Store indicates online that the "12.9-inch iPad Pro" is not yet available. The iPad unit is likely to become available by the last weeks of May.

The issue and delay with the stocks have increased speculations that Apple is already close to launching the "iPad Pro 2." But so far, Apple has been quiet about it. People first speculated that Apple will release the product in March, but it didn't come out.

The next rumored date had it pegged at April when Apple opens the Apple Park to employees. But with the end of the month already nearing and no signs of the "iPad Pro 2" yet, it's unlikely for Apple to launch the device this month.

The next rumored date is June 2017, during the upcoming Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2017, according to Smart Stock News. The conference is said to kick off sometime in June and is a great event for Apple to unveil the "iPad Pro 2."

The report said that the latest tablet will be coming with a Touch Bar and is likely to be faster and more energy efficient. Rumors are saying that Apple's latest processor, the A10x chipset, will be powering the "iPad Pro 2," that increases the device's performance and efficiency.

It remains to be seen whether all of the said rumors about the "iPad Pro 2" are true or not. Fans will likely find out when June arrives. In the meantime, check out the video below for more on Apple's latest tablet.
