Apple’s latest-and-greatest tablets are here. Apple announced its next-gen iPad Pro lineup today without an in-person or prerecorded event. Instead, all we got was a simple press release. The biggest sell here is the M2 chip, which offers a modest 10% bump in processing prowess and a 35% jump in graphics grunt. Then there’s the new Apple Pencil hover feature that shows contextual UI action before the stylus even touches the screen.
That’s without including the $349 keyboard, which is arguably necessary to bring the iPad Pro close to becoming a serious computer replacement. I am a hopeless tablet computing loyalist, and I can’t imagine a computing future for any iPad without a proper keyboard accessory. Plus, if you’re targeting any stylus-heavy creative tasks, prepare to burn an additional $129 for the Apple Pencil.
But there is hardly any worthwhile merit in picking the M2 iPad Pro over the M1-powered predecessor. Save for the ProRes and ProRAW photo and video perks, there is hardly anything that the M1 can’t do when compared to its M2 successor. But look over to the less-pricey side of Apple’s tablet ecosystem, and you quickly see where all of Apple’s attention has gone. The 10th-gen iPad gets a fresh design, faster chip, improved cameras in a more meaningful orientation, a switch away from the Lightning port, and upgraded connectivity with 5G support.Apple even paid special attention to the accessorizing side. The company has introduced an all-new Magic Keyboard for the entry-level iPad, which has a function row now.
