The latest Apple iPad Pro M2 is crafted to be the more powerful successor to the well-received iPad Pro M1. What do these tablets have to offer in a competitive 2022 tech space? Check them out here.
Once again, there is an Apple iPad Pro model with an 11-inch display and another with a 12.9-inch display. Both more or less have the same specifications, which means that the choice boils down to the buyer’s preferred form factor. It still carries signature features known to be included on Apple’s range-topping devices.
The most noticeable change is the upgrade from the M1 to the M2 chip. Both are monstrous either way, one just more so than the other. The Apple M2 features an 8-core CPU and a 10-core GPU. Improvements over the M1 have been pegged at 15% better CPU performance and whopping 35% increase in GPU output. This will make for some intense processing and a renewed gaming experience – also including other tasks that need graphical oomph such as rendering and modeling. This is ideal for creators and developers who need consistent high-level performance in their day-to-day lives.
Learning has also evolved with an improved 16-core Neural Engine that can process 40% more operations than the previous-gen, enhancing machine learning capabilities. These devices come with up to 16GB of RAM for well-optimized multitasking that should trump anything else on the market at the moment. After all, Apple has always lost in the numbers game but beat out its competitors in real-world performance. What now that they’ve decided to go all-out?
The latest Apple iPad Pro M2 also supports an upgraded Apple Pencil experience with hovering capabilities of up to 12mm above the display. With greater precision to work with, creators can definitely output more detailed works and spend less time doing so. Speaking of time, WiFi 6E saves you a lot of that by allowing for blazing-fast connection speeds. WiFi + 5G models are also available to make the most out of currently available wireless systems.
Optimization has always been the name of the game for Apple, and they prove it once again with the latest iPad OS16 for the Apple iPad Pro M2. In addition to the buttery-smooth experience already established in the past as well as stability updates, new features have been added to keep things interesting.
This includes Stage Manager, an all-in-one multitasking tool that aims to make the entire process of managing tasks and workloads that much easier. Desktop-class applications also make their way to this device to reduce the gap between the PC and tablet experience. No longer are mobile apps held back as a “watered-down” version of their PC counterparts. They now have the power and software to make a stand.
The last, but not the least, is Reference Mode: allowing the 12.9-inch Apple iPad Pro M2 to match display color requirements for professional standards in color grading, editing, and rendering. This are for professionals who require absolute color accuracy in their output. “That means pro users, including photographers and videographers, can edit HDR images and videos with every true-to-life detail right in their hands, and cinematographers on set can preview content in a color profile that represents the final capture.” Both also come with ProMotion 120Hz technology for ultra-smooth scrolling and content viewing.
