Right on schedule, Apple has launched the next generation of its iPad Pro. As was the case with the recent MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, Apple’s improvements to the iPad Pro are largely on the inside.

The device has a new M1 processor, the same chip that powers the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac Mini. Apple claims this will deliver “a big jump in performance” over the previous generation. The graphics performance is over 1,500 times faster, per the company. Apple also says you can expect all-day battery life from the device.

The iPad Pro now supports Thunderbolt, 5G connectivity, and an improved camera.

Apple says the ISP and LIDAR scanner will capture “incredible details” in low-light conditions. There’s a TrueDepth camera system on the front of the device, which allows users to unlock it with facial recognition. The system includes a new 12MP ultra-wide camera. A new feature called Center Stage, which follows moving subjects during video calls, will take advantage of this camera.

The 12.9-inch iPad models also include a new Mini-LED screen, the Liquid Retina XDR, which Apple says delivers “XDR-level brightness.” The display includes 10,000 Mini LEDs. This component has run Apple into some supply chain issues recently — one manufacturer has reportedly paused production.

The iPad Pro will support the Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard Folio, as well as the Magic Keyboard, which is available in a new white color. Apple says the device uses a 100 percent recycled aluminum enclosure.

The 11-inch model starts at $799 and the 12.9-inch one begins at $1,099. Both will be available in the second half of May, with preorders going live on April 30th.
