Features

The standout feature is undoubtedly the new ultra retina XDR display. The tandem OLED technology delivers exceptional brightness and contrast, making images truly pop. ProMotion and True Tone further enhance the viewing experience. Beyond the screen, the M4 chip provides blazing-fast performance, effortlessly handling demanding tasks.

Performance

During my testing, the iPad Pro consistently impressed. Multitasking was smooth and fluid, even with multiple demanding apps open simultaneously. The M4 chip handled graphically intensive games with ease, maintaining a stable frame rate. Video editing was a breeze, and the large internal storage meant I didn’t have to worry about running out of space. Battery life was excellent, easily lasting a full day on a single charge, even with heavy usage. The fast-charging capabilities are also a plus. The 5G connectivity proved reliable and provided fast download speeds, significantly faster than WiFi in areas with good reception.

However, I did notice occasional minor lag when switching between apps quickly, particularly when running extremely demanding tasks. This was not a major issue but a minor point to note. While it isn’t the fault of the device, the limited expandable memory remains a limitation for those needing massive storage.
