Subtly superior

Another year, another minor spec bump. But, this time the iPad Pro gets Apple’s fastest processor. Tempted much?

After all these years, what came as the biggest surprise while reviewing the "new" iPad Pro is that it was still a conversation starter. And not because of the pure white Magic Keyboard that really is a breath of fresh air (just keep it away from dusty air), but because with each iterative update to the iPad Pro, Apple packs in more horsepower and more multitasking abilities. And yet, there is more conjecture than ever about whether the iPad can replace the MacBook.

No iPad user has ever found the power to be lacking. Yet, just like clockwork, Apple keeps updating its flagship tablet year after year, bringing them closer to the laptops and in this case, plonking the M2 silicon under the hood. Yes, the same processor you'll find inside MacBook Pros and Airs! As expected, this has upped its price proportionally, though the MY2023 iPad Pro seems like the mildest iterative update so far. Well, visually at least.
