Media outlets have started releasing reviews of the new iPad Pro with the M4 chip before the product is delivered to customers in the US on May 15th, much like the iPad Air. They highlight the outstanding performance of the M4 chip, OLED display, slim design, and lightweight build.
Nathan Ingraham from Engadget suggests that the M4 chip may offer more performance than the average user needs currently. Even Apple’s own apps like Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro, with added AI capabilities, run smoothly on the iPad M1 or newer. The sleek and lightweight design enhances portability, making it convenient for on-the-go use, and the device itself appears sturdy.
David Pierce from The Verge comments that the M4’s speed is not significantly better compared to the iPad Pro M2. However, the M4 excels in displaying OLED colors with increased precision, without overheating issues or battery depletion.
Kyle Barr from Gizmodo notes that the iPad Pro is packed with power, lacking only in the limitations of the iPadOS software, preventing it from fully replacing a Mac, especially for multitasking.
Gerald Lynch from iMore praises the upgraded Apple Pencil Pro with Haptic feedback and new control shortcuts, making professional drawing tasks more convenient. However, these advanced features may not be suitable for everyone, but Lynch is confident that professional users will appreciate them. He adds that even Steve Jobs, known for opposing stylus pens, would love it.
Lastly, Jason Snell from Sixcolors mentions that the new Magic Keyboard has been significantly improved, with a larger trackpad and an aluminum build that gives it a sturdy and laptop-like feel.
TLDR: The new iPad Pro with the M4 chip impresses with its performance, OLED display, slim design, and lightweight build. Reviewers highlight the device’s power, sleek design, and upgraded accessories like the Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard.
