A third-party case for the rumored 10th-generation iPad appears to have hit the shelves early at a Target store in the United States.
Twitter user @roeeban today shared photos of a folio for an unreleased 2022 version of the entry-level iPad. The folio is designed by popular accessory maker Speck, which has been making cases for Apple products for well over a decade and likely has sources within Apple's supply chain in order to obtain design details about upcoming devices.
Notably, the case has a holder for the second-generation Apple Pencil, suggesting that the 10th-generation iPad will support the newer version of the Apple Pencil. The ninth-generation iPad is only compatible with the original Apple Pencil.
Here's a closer look at the mention of second-generation Apple Pencil support on the box:
Apple last updated the entry-level iPad in September 2021, with key features at the time including a 10.2-inch display, an A13 Bionic chip, an upgraded 12-megapixel front camera with support for the Center Stage feature, True Tone, and double the base storage. In the U.S., the 10.2-inch iPad starts at $329 with 64GB of storage.

If they remove the headphone jack it will cause a lot of issues in the education market. Have you ever tried managing a classroom set of Bluetooth headphones in a primary school? Using a USB-C or Lightning dongle is similarly unrealistic and prone to loss/damage.
Did they announce this in March? https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/speck-unveils-protective-cases-for-new-iphone-se-2022-and-ipad-2022-301498487.html
"For iPad (2022), Speck announced Balance Folio™, a slim tablet case that protects against drops up to 4 feet, and securely holds Apple Pencil® (2nd Generation)."
