IMAGES APPLE, KENNY YEO, 123RF
The iPad Pro (6th gen) is Apple's shiniest, fanciest, most powerful tablet. Physically, the latest iPad Pro is identical to its predecessor. This means accessories for older iPad Pros such as the Magic Keyboard, sleeves, and covers will all work with this new version.
My main criticism about the design is the position of the front-facing True Depth camera. It's still above the display in portrait orientation, in what many would consider to be "the wrong place." If Apple could move it for the 10th gen iPad, surely they can do the same for the iPad Pro?
The iPad Pro still comes in two sizes – 11 and 12.9 inches. Similar to last year’s model, only the larger version gets the gorgeous Liquid Retina XDR mini-LED display. It’s mostly the same display so I won’t bore you with the details. Yes, it’s still a brilliant display with amazing contrast and colours, and particularly deep blacks that rival OLED displays.
One notable update is support for the new Wi-Fi 6E standard, which allows it to tap into the relatively uncongested 6GHz band for faster wireless speeds. Of course, you need a compatible Wi-Fi 6E router to take full advantage of this.
