That’s not surprising, as new iPads coming in the first half of 2024 have been rumored for months. What is somewhat unexpected, however, is this MacRumors spotted some text strings in iPadOS 17.5 beta 1 that suggest the iPhone’s “battery health” menu is coming to iPads.

On the iPhone, this is something you can access through the Settings app, and it tells you how healthy your device’s battery is, expressed as a percentage of its total initial capacity. As this percentage decreases, the more urgent it becomes to either replace the battery or get a new device.

Whether this feature comes from older iPads or not, it’s reasonable to expect that you’ll have access to the rumored new models. As far as anyone knows, there will be two iPad Pro models with new OLED displays and two iPad Air models, with one of them being 12.9 inches.
