Apple has announced a refresh of its iPad line-up, introducing, among other things, a 13-inch iPad Air and the company’s first-ever OLED iPad model.
As revealed during today’s Let Loose event, Apple’s most substantial iPad makeover has been reserved for its top-end iPad Pro, which now features a “tandem” OLED display capable of 1,600 nits for HDR content. It’s paired with Apple’s M4 chip – promising up to 50 percent faster CPU and four times faster rendering performance – plus camera changes and a slimmer design.
This new iPad Pro, available in silver or Space Grey, shifts the front-facing 12-megapixel camera to the side so it’s centred while in landscape mode, and its rear camera now supports ProRes video recording and Smart HDR 4. As for the thinner form factor, the 13-inch iPad Pro (which starts at £1,299/$1,299 with 256GB of storage) is 5.3mm thick – down from 6.4mm – and weighs 579g, while the 13-inch model (£999/$999) is 5.1mm and weighs 444g.
