The New Apple iPad Pro: A Revolutionary Upgrade

This year's Apple iPad Pro has undergone significant changes, making it even more desirable to potential buyers. The most notable change is the reduction in size of the chassis, which is a welcome move for those who have struggled with previous models being too bulky. In fact, both models - 11-inch and 12.9-inch - have seen a whopping 25% decrease in volume compared to last year's designs. This reduction in size has also led to the new iPad Pro being made even thinner, standing at an impressive 5.9 millimeters thick, making it the thinnest iOS device ever produced.

Another significant change this year is the switch from Lightning to USB-C as the main connector. This means that users can now charge their iPads and connect them to external devices like cameras or displays using a single cable. The adoption of USB-C also opens up new possibilities for fast charging, with Apple providing an 18-watt power adapter in the box, compared to the 12-watt adapter used last year.

Unfortunately, not all changes are positive. The loss of the headphone jack has been a topic of discussion among users, and while Apple provides a cheap $9 adaptor to mitigate this issue, some may find it unnecessary. However, for those who want to upgrade from an older model, the new iPad Pro's improved connectivity options make it well worth considering.

The real star of the show is the new A12X Bionic chip, which represents a significant leap forward in terms of performance and efficiency. With 8 cores, including 4 high-performance cores and 4 low-power cores, this chip promises to deliver impressive results, with Apple claiming a 35% improvement in single-core speeds and a 90% overall speed boost compared to last year's iPad Pro.

The A12X Bionic chip also brings with it a new 7-core GPU that promises twice the performance of the previous 12-core GPU. This is a significant upgrade for users who will be taking advantage of the new iPad Pro's advanced capabilities, such as augmented reality and professional desktop apps like AutoCAD and Photoshop.

Battery life remains the same on this year's model, which may be a concern for some users who were hoping for a battery life boost. However, with the increased performance and efficiency of the A12X Bionic chip, Apple is confident that users will see improved results in terms of overall system performance.

The Wi-Fi has been upgraded to support simultaneous dual-band connection, while Bluetooth has also been updated to the latest version, Bluetooth 5. This means that users can expect faster and more reliable connectivity on their new iPad Pro.

For those who want a cellular model, Apple is offering gigabit-class LTE speeds, with up to 29 bands supported. This makes it an ideal choice for those who need mobile connectivity on the go.

In terms of storage options, the base 11-inch model will come with 64GB of storage, while the 12.9-inch model will start at $999 for the non-cellular version and $1,049 for the cellular model. Both models are available in Space Gray or Silver, but unfortunately, there is no option for Rose Gold.

The new Apple Pencil has also been upgraded, featuring a single flat side that attaches magnetically to the side of the iPad Pro, making it easy to pair and charge. The pencil itself has also seen some improvements, with compatibility with the new iPad Pro and improved performance in terms of responsiveness and battery life.

One final note is worth mentioning - due to the significant upgrades made this year, the new iPad Pro will only work with the A12X Bionic chip, not the older models that use the A11 chip. The Apple Pencil also requires the new A12X Bionic chip to function properly.

The second-generation Apple Pencil can be engraved for free if ordered online this year and it's priced at $129.

everything you need to know about let's start with the elephant in the room the physical changes the new iPad pros are completely redesigned with flat edges all around in a new rounded edge to edge liquid retina pro motion display with equally thin bezels all around for the first time in an iPad the home button is gone and it now supports face ID without having a notch in the display and it works in both portrait and landscape modes now that's something you can't currently get on an iPhone that also means that you get the same an emoji emoji and porches selfie features as well not only that but the iPad pros get the same cameras as the iPhone 10 are featuring smart HDR 4k video recording at 60 frames per second on the rear and 1080p at 60 on the front the only thing that's lacking is optical image stabilization the 2018 iPad pro comes in two sizes 11 inches and 12 point 9 inches the 11 inch models chassis is the same size as last year's 10.5 inch iPad pro the extra display size comes from thinner bezels for the twelve point nine inch model the display size is obviously staying the same but the chassis is getting a lot smaller this is great because last year's twelve point nine inch was too big for a lot of people in fact both models have 25% less volume than last year not only that but the new iPad pros are only five point nine millimeters thick making it thinner than any iPad or iPhone ever made - the camera bomb a massive change this year is the move to USBC from lightning for the main connector making it the first iOS device ever to use it this means you can charge your phone with it and connect it to external devices like cameras or even an external 5k display which will mirror everything onto that display unfortunately the headphone jack is gone and it was only a matter of time before this happened but they have a cheap nine dollar adaptor for sale if you really want it before we get into the new and insane a 12 X Bionic chip let's talk about the

happier that they did this considering the 812 and the new iPhones has only been out for a little over a month just like the 812 the a 12 X gets the new 8 core neural engine which is a first for the iPad this will be huge for augmented reality the new iPad pros are packing a new 8 core processor with 4 performance cores and for efficiency course Apple claimed that we should see a 35 percent improvement in single core speeds and a 90 percent overall speed improvement making it faster than 92% of all portable PC processors and to be completely honest I was not expecting that big of a difference and we'll be testing it as soon as we get it in so make sure to subscribe now there's also a new 7 core GPU that Apple said should get twice the performance compared to the 12 core GPU and

gigabytes thanks to all that extra power there are now professional desktop apps like AutoCAD and Photoshop coming to the new iPad pro the Wi-Fi has also been improved now supporting simultaneous dual-band connection and Bluetooth has been updated to Bluetooth 5 like the rest of Apple's recent devices and if you're into the cellular model you get gigabit class LTE just like the new iPhone 10s
