Description

Desktop Power with the M1 Chip

At the heart of the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (5th generation) is the Apple M1 chip, the same one found in Apple’s Mac computers. This chip delivers groundbreaking performance, with a CPU that is up to 50% faster and a GPU that is up to 40% faster compared to the previous model. This processing power enables the smooth execution of the most demanding professional apps, such as editing 4K or even 8K video, complex 3D design, and playing graphics-intensive games. Thanks to up to 16 GB of RAM, you can seamlessly switch between different tasks without any performance degradation.

Revolutionary Liquid Retina XDR Display

The highlight of the new iPad Pro is the Liquid Retina XDR display. With its Mini-LED technology, it achieves a stunning peak brightness of 1600 nits and a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. This results in breathtaking HDR content, with deep blacks that are indistinguishable from traditional OLED displays. This display is perfect for professional users who require precise color accuracy for photo and video editing, as well as for anyone who wants to enjoy movies and shows in the highest quality. ProMotion technology continues to provide a buttery-smooth display with an adaptive refresh rate of 120 Hz.

Blazing-Fast Connectivity and Advanced Functionality

With support for 5G (on cellular models), you can enjoy ultra-fast download and upload speeds no matter where you are. The Thunderbolt / USB 4 port is another significant improvement, offering massive bandwidth for fast data transfers and allowing for connection to a wide range of professional accessories like high-resolution external monitors and fast storage media. The front camera with Center Stage uses the ultra-wide lens to automatically keep you centered in the frame during video calls, even if you move, which revolutionizes the video conferencing experience.
