Apple has recently revealed a major update to its tablet lineup, marking the most comprehensive overhaul since 2018. The company surprised many by introducing its new M4 processor in the latest iPad Pro model, a processor that has not been integrated into any of its computers before. Along with the revamped high-end iPads, Apple also updated its Air model by introducing a 13-inch version, breaking away from the traditional size limitations previously seen in the Pro models of the company’s tablets.
The new iPad Pro was showcased at Apple’s event called “Let Loose” and was described by CEO Tim Cook as the thinnest product the company has ever created with the most advanced screen ever produced. During a pre-recorded online presentation, Apple highlighted the professional video and sound editing capabilities of the new iPad Pro, positioning it as a powerful alternative to laptops, offering the versatility of a touch screen and haptic pen.
One of the key features of this new iPad Pro is an OLED screen, technology not yet available in any of Apple’s laptops or monitors. The Ultra Retina XDR OLED Display offers improved brightness, realistic black colors, and enhances overall viewing experience for users. The M4 chip powering this iPad Pro is touted to be up to 1.5 times faster than its predecessor, with dedicated processing engines for OLED screen and artificial intelligence tasks.
In addition to this updated iPad Pro model, Apple also introduced updated versions of iPad Air models equipped with M2 processors and available in both 11-inch and 13-inch sizes. The company has aligned pricing strategy for these new models with iPad Pro starting at €1199 euros while iPad Air starts at €699 euros in Spain. Both models offer variations in storage capacity and connectivity options catering to different user preferences.
To complement these new tablets, Apple unveiled new accessories such as enhanced features on pro version of Apple Pencil and updated Magic Keyboard with keyboard & trackpad features.
