Press Release: 07 May 2024
Cupertino, California – Apple has once again raised the bar in the world of technology with the unveiling of the groundbreaking new iPad Pro. Featuring a new thin and light design, breakthrough Ultra Retina XDR display, and outrageously fast M4 performance with powerful AI capabilities, the new iPad Pro represents a significant leap forward in both design and functionality.
The New iPad Pro: A Giant Leap Forward
The new iPad Pro, available in two sizes – a spacious 13-inch model and a super-portable 11-inch model – boasts the world’s most advanced display. With a breakthrough Ultra Retina XDR display featuring state-of-the-art tandem OLED technology, users are treated to a remarkable visual experience unlike any other. This display supports an incredible 1000 nits of full-screen brightness for SDR and HDR content, and an astounding 1600 nits peak for HDR, setting a new standard for extreme dynamic range.
M4 Chip: Powering the Future
At the heart of the new iPad Pro lies the M4 chip, the next generation of Apple silicon. Built on second-generation 3-nanometer technology, the M4 chip delivers unprecedented performance while maintaining power efficiency. With an entirely new display engine, the M4 chip enables the precision, color, and brightness of the Ultra Retina XDR display, while also offering up to 1.5x faster CPU performance over its predecessor.
Outrageously Powerful Device for AI
The new iPad Pro with M4 features Apple’s most powerful Neural Engine ever, capable of 38 trillion operations per second. This powerhouse, combined with next-generation ML accelerators in the CPU and high-performance GPU, makes the iPad Pro an outrageously powerful device for AI. From easily isolating subjects in videos to running powerful diffusion and generative AI models, the possibilities are endless.
Apple Pencil Pro: Redefining Creativity
Accompanying the new iPad Pro is the Apple Pencil Pro, featuring even more magical capabilities and powerful new interactions. With a new sensor in the barrel, users can quickly switch tools, line weights, and colors without interrupting the creative process. The addition of a custom haptic engine provides a remarkably intuitive experience, while a gyroscope allows for precise control of the tool being used.
All-New Magic Keyboard and Smart Folio
Designed specifically for the new iPad Pro, the all-new Magic Keyboard is thinner and lighter than ever, making it more portable and versatile. With a gorgeous aluminum palm rest, larger trackpad, and haptic feedback, the Magic Keyboard delivers an experience akin to using a MacBook. Additionally, the Smart Folio attaches magnetically and supports multiple viewing angles for greater flexibility.
Powerful iPadOS Features
iPadOS is packed with features that push the boundaries of what’s possible on iPad. From Reference Mode, which precisely matches color requirements of the Ultra Retina XDR display, to Stage Manager, which enables users to work with multiple overlapping windows, iPadOS enhances productivity and creativity.
Pricing and Availability
The new iPad Pro, along with the Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard, are available to order starting today, with availability in stores beginning Wednesday, May 15.
Conclusion
With the unveiling of the new iPad Pro, Apple once again demonstrates its commitment to innovation and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in personal technology.
