Cupertino, California – Apple has finally unveiled its latest iPad Pro and iPad Air models, available for pre-order starting May 7th. The new iPad Pro starts at $999, while the iPad Air starts at $599. Both models are offered in 11- and 13-inch sizes and will be in stores by May 15th.
One of the key changes in the new iPad Pro models is the shift from LCD to OLED displays, which is expected to appeal to creatives. The devices are powered by the new M4 chip, offering 50 percent faster CPU performance than the previous M2 chip. Additionally, the iPad Pro features new camera configurations and a repositioned front camera for better video calls.
The iPad Air now comes in two sizes with Apple’s M2 processor and supports the Apple Pencil hover feature previously exclusive to the iPad Pro. Both models boast Wi-Fi 6E support, a Liquid Retina XDR display, and improved stereo speakers on the 13-inch model. Accessories like the new Apple Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard have been updated to complement the new models.
Customers can pre-order the iPad Air in 11-inch and 13-inch configurations from Apple, Best Buy, Amazon, and B&H Photo starting at $599. The iPad Pro in 11-inch and 13-inch sizes is available for pre-order from the same retailers starting at $999. Both models offer trade-in options and come in silver or space gray color variants.
For those looking for enhanced performance, the 1TB and 2TB models of the iPad Pro offer nano-textured glass for reduced screen reflectivity. Additionally, opting for higher storage capacities provides a RAM upgrade and a 10-core M4 chipset for improved processing power.
In conclusion, Apple enthusiasts have a range of options to choose from with the new iPad Pro and iPad Air models. The latest upgrades in display technology, performance, and camera features make these devices stand out in the competitive tablet market.
