To call the iPad Pro a tablet seems reductive. It’s like calling the Star Wars films a space drama – it’s true but it’s so much more. This latest model continues to push the boundaries of what any tablet – let alone an iPad – can do. It introduces a number of firsts across the entire Apple range, from the screen technology to the first M4 chip.

We’ve spent a week using the iPad Pro, for everything from painting and song creation to watching films, and even writing this review. We have to admit we love it. It won’t be for everyone but is it the best tablet Apple has ever produced? Without doubt.

At first glance, the iPad Pro looks very similar to the older model. While it is fractionally taller and wider – presumably to accommodate that 0.1-inch larger screen – it is much thinner and lighter, which is really noticeable in the hand. The 11-inch model is now 5.3mm thick and weighs 446g, the 13-inch is just 5.1mm and 582g, which is 1.3mm thinner than the previous and 102g lighter.

The front-facing camera now sits on the long side of the device rather than the top, which is more suited to video calls in landscape or horizontal position. It also makes Face ID easier to use in this position. This iPad more than ever is designed to be used on its side, whether with a Magic Keyboard, a Smart Folio or just being held.

There are four speakers, placed top and bottom close to the corners, to deliver that immersive sound – though Spatial Audio is only available with compatible AirPods. There’s also one fewer microphone – now four rather than five.
