Damn, M4 chip so fast?

actually M4 is cheaper to produce compared to M3 as mentioned by TSMC, so more profit for Apple.

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

It’s the opposite for me - started of as a PC Masta Race dude with the most up to date PC hardware etc2 (thus why i joined Lowyat.net in the first place),

in the end i prefer a simple machine and powerful enough to handle all the task i needed done.For more serious task i use a Mac(even retire my Win PC lol) at my home/office workstation. Who would’ve thought i went with an Apple product in the end LOL

iPad is just the right size that I want something that just works most of the time that i can bring with me if i need to travel etc2 for presentation, simple office app works and meetings with my staffs.

they never dump... new m4 ipad pro can still use the gen 2 apple pencil even now it also support apple pencil pro...  tongue.gif
backward compatible...

i am glad that i returned the m2 ipad pro 11-inch....
becos price gap between the m2 ipad pro 11-inch to m4 ipad pro 11-inch is not a lot.. but the difference physically is a lot...

1) better display (oled vs lcd)
2) slightly more pixels also (in terms of width)
3) m4 from m2 is a huge jump and support extra feature
4) camera system lost the wide angle camera but overall it supports more features like pro raw etc... now.. .

the secondary lens is the worse in quality - And it's rare for us to use the cameras on the ipads anyway. I think the inclusion of the new sensor for adaptive True Tone flash that makes document scanning better is spot on 👍🏻
- at last a better use for those cameras on the back.

Agreed, defeats the purpose of OLED true blacks. Although, I am curious on what it feels like drawing on nano textured glass

IF your looking for more resistance like Paperlike's offerings, to make it more feel paper-ish , reviewers said this is not it. Seems like normal glass just not reflective when using the pencil on it,

As the nano textured purpose is to reduce reflection - and that's what's it's all about.

Agreed on destroys the 'OLED deep blacks', yeap ✅

a redditor reported that 120Hz ProMotion is still NOT available when running on 120Hz-capable external displays.
perhaps we will need to wait till WWDC 2024 and see what Apple will launch for iPadOS18.

otherwise, if still running 60Hz on external display means, Apple definitely do not want iPad to spoil the profit of Macbook lines.  whistling.gif  rolleyes.gif

Damn apple, just why...

its a bit jarring for me until a point i find it a bit headache/'pening' on my m1 looking down and up changing refresh rates.

i was hoping the M4 would at least output 120hz to match the iPad.

Just added the m4 with the new keyboard in the Apple cart, i'll wait for WWDC 24 if they made any huge changes on the iPadOS 18 then ill pull the trigger.
