Apple’s new iPad Pro is a showcase for its M1 processor, making its debut on its tablet family. Or perhaps it's a showcase for its eye-searingly bright XDR screen. It’s probably both.
Chris Velazco's review lays out how ridiculously powerful this iPad is. It'll be future proof for at least a few generations of upgrades. (You’d hope so, too, with prices for the 12.9-inch model starting at $1,099.)
Because they use the same Apple-made processor, these iPads are just as powerful as the latest MacBooks, at least in that regard. At this moment in time, the iPad app ecosystem (and iPadOS) might not quite be ready for all this power. But when it does catch up, this could be the vanguard of the portable computer future.
