iPad Pro

The iPad Pro series includes all of Apple's high-end professional tablets, including several generations of the 11-inch, 12.9-inch, and 13-inch models. The series is regularly updated and offers different technologies, designs, and performance features depending on the year of release. All variants are designed for users who require maximum performance and professional features.

Newer iPad Pro models typically feature even more powerful M-series chips, improved displays such as Mini-LED or OLED, optimized battery efficiency, and more advanced cameras and sensors. The casing is also constantly being refined, making current models lighter, thinner, and more durable. Furthermore, support for accessories like the Apple Pencil or Magic Keyboard is often enhanced.

The iPad Pro offers the highest performance of all iPads and uses M-series chips, which are significantly faster than the A-series chips in the iPad and iPad Air. The display is also superior, featuring ProMotion 120Hz and—depending on the model—Mini-LED or OLED. Additionally, the iPad Pro boasts features like Thunderbolt, better cameras, and, in many models, a LiDAR scanner. The iPad Air is aimed at performance-oriented everyday users, while the regular iPad serves as a more affordable entry-level model.

The 11-inch model is particularly suitable for users who travel frequently and prefer a portable, lightweight, and compact device with high performance. The larger 12.9-inch and 13-inch models are geared more towards professional creatives, designers, photographers, or anyone who frequently works with large workspaces, edits videos, or draws. Both versions offer maximum performance but differ in screen size and display technology.

The displays of the iPad Pro models are among the highest quality on the tablet market. They offer ProMotion with a 120Hz refresh rate, very high brightness, and impressive color reproduction. Larger models use either Mini-LED or OLED technology, depending on the generation, which enables deeper blacks and extremely high contrast. Smaller models use Liquid Retina LCD displays, which also offer excellent image quality.

Standard glass offers a clear, brilliant display and is suitable for most applications. Nanotexture glass, on the other hand, has a specially etched surface that significantly reduces reflections and minimizes glare. This ensures that the content remains clearly visible even in bright light, outdoors, or in studio environments. The display appears less glossy without sacrificing sharpness or color accuracy. Nanotexture glass is particularly well-suited for professional creatives who frequently work in bright environments or perform intensive, precision visual workflows.

The iPad Pro models are equipped with Apple's M-series chips, which originate from the Mac ecosystem and therefore offer exceptionally high performance. Whether M1, M2, M3, or newer: these chips enable professional applications such as 4K video editing, 3D graphics, computationally intensive pro apps, or desktop-level multitasking. No other iPad achieves this level of performance.

The cameras on the Pro models feature high-quality wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses, advanced image processing, and, in many generations, a LiDAR scanner. This significantly improves AR experiences, depth sensing, and professional apps. The front camera supports Center Stage, ensuring automatic focus and dynamic framing during video calls.

The battery life averages around ten hours for browsing, reading, and streaming. Despite their very powerful processors, iPad Pro models are remarkably long-lasting thanks to their energy-efficient M-series chips. Battery life is reduced with demanding applications like video editing or 3D rendering, but remains impressively long for this performance class.

Depending on the model and generation, storage capacities from 128 GB to 2 TB are available. This easily covers both everyday applications and extensive photo and video projects. Apple offers various Pro-typical colors, such as Space Gray, Silver, or Natural, depending on the year.

Current iPad Pro models support Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E, or even Wi-Fi 7, depending on the generation. Cellular versions offer ultra-fast 5G. The USB-C port on many Pro models features Thunderbolt support, which is particularly important for professional users who need to transfer large amounts of data or connect external monitors and storage. Modern Bluetooth standards ensure a stable connection to accessories.

An iPad Pro with Wi-Fi uses only Wi-Fi connections to access the internet. It's ideal for users who primarily use the device at home, in the office, or in locations with a stable Wi-Fi network. The Wi-Fi + Cellular version also features an integrated cellular module and can use mobile data with an eSIM or physical SIM card. This ensures the iPad stays online even when you're on the go, traveling, or in situations without Wi-Fi. For those who require maximum flexibility and constant internet access, Wi-Fi + Cellular is the better choice.

The iPad Pro models are compatible with the 2nd generation Apple Pencil or the Apple Pencil USB-C, depending on the specific model. They also support the Magic Keyboard and the Smart Keyboard Folio. Thanks to the USB-C/Thunderbolt port, numerous other devices such as external storage, monitors, or audio equipment can be connected. This makes the iPad Pro models ideal for creative and professional workflows.
