Read our full Apple iPad Pro (M4) Review
up to date iPad Pro It is the most expensive iPad, more than most people need tablets. But if you have cash burning, you’re determined to use your iPad as your primary mobile computer, or just hope the most impressive iPad might come out.
We gave the new iPad Pro Score 84 In our comments. Like the iPad Air, it comes in 11-inch and 13-inch models: the former starts at $999, while the latter starts at $1,299. This is very expensive for most people, but for money, you get a lot of quality (even if not important) upgrades that can be upgraded to other Apple tablets.
The most important of these is the “Tandem OLED” panel of the iPad Pro model. This produces richer colors, darker, and more even black tones compared to the LCD screen on the iPad Air. Games and scrolling web pages look smoother thanks to their faster 120Hz refresh rate. It can also be significantly brighter, reaching up to 1,000 columns in SDR and up to 1,600 columns with HDR highlights.
This is where the “concatenation” part comes from. Essentially, Apple stacks two OLED panels on each other to improve peak brightness, which is often a (relative) weakness of traditional OLED displays. It is breakthroughbut what you really need to know is that this screen is absolutely delightful – one of the best screens we see on any consumer device, let alone tablets. You really do better for watching movies or editing media. Unlike previous models, this same display technology is used on both the 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pros, so it’s better to be just personal preference.
The professional design is roughly similar to the iPad Air, but is slightly thinner and lighter. The difference on paper is not very big, but the professionals’ narrowed frames make them easier to hold. This makes especially meaningful for the 13-inch model.
Another title upgrade is Apple’s new M4 SOCcurrently only used with new professionals. If the M2 is overdoing the vast majority of casual and pro iPad tasks, then the M4 is Mega-kill; it’s easy to chew almost everything we put in. But this should be more future-proof, and if your work involves high-resolution media editing, heavy use of machine learning, etc., you can save a few seconds here and there.
Beyond that, the base iPad Pro has 256GB of storage, which is twice as much as the iPad Air. It also supports more advanced features such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing on its GPU, which can help in future lighting as well as faster neural engines, which should help Apple already plans to be in the coming months and years planned AI features.
if you real To be the most important thing, note that the 1TB and 2TB configurations have twice as much RAM (16GB) and use a more powerful M4 version with an additional performance core. Skip to one of the Skus costs Minimum However, the price is $1,599 – that’s before you add any accessories. Those who want to use the iPad Pro as a (very expensive) media consumption device don’t need this; if you use a memory-hungry app or need the absolute best app, be aware that it will cost you.
The iPad Pro is the only iPad with Face ID, which is more convenient than a fingerprint scanner. This is the only one with a Thunderbolt USB-C port, which technically transfers large files faster. It sounds more powerful than air, with four built-in speakers instead of two. Its camera system isn’t that different, but it includes a flash to scan documents more easily and can record videos Apple’s Pres Format. Its front camera is also on the long edge. As for accessories, individual professionals can use Apple’s latest Magic Keyboardit’s very expensive in itself, but has a more advanced aluminum effect, a more spacious trackpad and a row of function keys. It also supports Pencil Professional stylus (but not Second Generation Pencils).
If most of these features sound niche to you, then, that’s the idea. Unless you’re willing to pay for that great OLED screen, the iPad Air will be close enough for a more delicious price. Even though the iPad Pro is a leading tablet, it is still an iPad in the end. Some creative professionals can use it as a laptop replacement, but for most iPados, it still makes multitasking and other computer Y tasks more confusing than on a MacBook. Judging from the features added by Apple in iPados 18, this won’t change anytime soon. (this The most buzzingwhere to add non-ai?
