Apple aficionados waiting for the newest line of iPads will be rewarded when September roles around.

The latest full-size fifth generation iPad is expected to make its debut sometime in September, according to Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst for KGI Securities, according to Mac Rumors. Falling inline with the predicted release dates of both the low-cost iPhone and the new iPhone 5S, September looks to be a big month for the Cupertino based company.

When the iPad 5 does make an appearance, rumors suggest it will be both lighter and smaller. Clocking in at 9.7 inches, the upcoming iPad is expected to have a slimmer bezel and come closer to mimicking the design of the iPad Mini, according to Apple Insider. Along with this, the LED tubes used for the Retina display have been decreased leading to lighter weight and longer battery life.

However, customers searching for a new iPad Mini are going to have significantly longer time to wait.

"Judging by the production status of low-cost iPad mini model, we estimate shipments can only launch in December at the earliest," Kuo stated, according to Mac Rumors. "For the sake of gross profit, the model may not be much cheaper than current iPad mini, which means less appeal to consumers. As such, we think Apple is unlikely to launch the product this year."

While attempting to add Retina display to the iPad mini, Apple slowed production and the International Business Times states that is will be March or April by time the product rolls into stores.
