Me too worry about burn in. My current m1 iPad Pro 1tb still serving me good with no issue, perhaps should skip buying this time as the price also getting ridiculously high

Which spec are you considering?

The maxed-out 13-inch iPad Pro goes for RM13,299. I wonder what's going to be the use case for these products to have such a high asking price.

Crazy pricing as usual from Apple. U are better off with a high end PC for that price. Nowadays ppl hardly use tablet already.

My 12.9 M1 works fine still, I can’t see the need to upgrade unless I’m like super loaded. To me the hardware is restricted by the software, and most of the time I just game and browse on the iPad only

crazy high currency conversion rate from Apple @ 5.xx (our ringgit so worthless ma?)

I'd go for the Air if only it had a high refresh rate. Sadly Apple understands that putting a high refresh rate screen in the Air will kill the Pro.


You think? In the past few years, it has been relatively cheaper to get an iPhone in Malaysia compared to our neighbours simply because of our currency instability. Apple is now factoring in the potential drop from the start.

man ... USD999 but comes to Malaysia here become RM5,299

Continue to use my Ipad Pro 2020 [128gb]

And does Apple Pencil 2nd gen still usable with new IPAD PRO 2024?

I find it like why iphone 15 pro and M4 ipad pro starting price is USD 999 but iphone 15 pro is RM5499 while ipad is RM5299

is it because of the tax?

I am also using the 11inch ipad pro 2021 and it is still serving me good.

Anyway i will check the new ipad oled screen before deciding whether to upgrade.

a 14-inch MBP is more useful and worthy thn an ipad pro

unless u do drawing for a living..

only for those with tight budget will choose air now i guess. since there is a bigger price gap now to pro...

no doubt... undoubtable...


also need to factor in import tax etc..

I am interested to know how iPad Pro 13 (M4) compared to Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra?

The main reason why i purchased Dell G3223Q 4K 144Hz 32" IPS monitor instead of Dell AW3225QF 3rd gen QD-OLED.
even though got 3 years burn in warranty, but can only claim ONCE. cannot claim more afterwards.

i think microLED display tech is the way forward, beautiful screen like OLED but no burn in issues.

but i don't know why Apple withdraw using microLED


will probably purchase the same as my old 12.9 M1 256GB Wifi + 5G. Last time, also i invested RM7,427 for ipad pro 12.9 M1 5G, Magic keyboard & Pencil on Apple website.

hope later can get good trade in price at Machines or Switch to minimize the overall ipad pro M4 price

yes you're maybe right.
but for me, i use my ipad pro 12.9 M1 80% more than my laptop for work. Mostly for office documentations, reading research journals (really need that pencil to do annotations) and etc.

my laptop is use to run heavy research simulation softwares like Autocad, Ansys, COMSOL & etc

Hi do u editing video / photo on the ipad m1? 256gb enough ?

yes i do basic video editing on LumaFusion & Photos via Lightroom. very smooth.
But basically not enough sometimes on the storage side

i got a Samsung 7 1TB external SSD as main backup/work storage.
inside ipad pro m1 itself, I only stores important documents, apps & some 3-4 games that i frequently play such as COD Mobile, PUBG & etc.

but of course, the internal SSD speed is way much faster than external's.

Not sure how much will my Ipad Pro 2020 [WIFI] 128GB will trade in by the time Malaysia Official launch

Right now max is RM1,150

just wondering for those with iPad Pro and case ... do you use it on a desk / sitting up right ? Or is it comfortable enough to use in bed like reading a book ?

Prefer to use case cause the body of the ipad quite slippery

Am using this type which is detachable
