Apple iPad Pro 12.9 review: The rest is yet to come

The 2020 iPad Pro is a terrific tablet that, thanks to features like trackpad support and some under-the-hood tweaks, comes closer than ever to feeling like a traditional computer. It doesn't quite get there because of some inherent iPadOS limitations,...

Strong performance ; LiDAR could be an AR game-changer ; Mostly elegant trackpad support ; Base model now has more storage

Ultra-wide camera not as good as main ; Some apps need to be trackpad-optimized ; Still no headphone jack ; Hardware doesn't feel dramatically updated

If you already splurged on the last iPad Pro, feel free to move on with your day: You're not missing much. Yes, the new Pro is mildly faster at certain tasks, but I wouldn't call the difference palpable. The additional ultra-wide camera is helpful if...

Apple iPad Pro (2020) Review

Lightning-fast processor ; Beautiful screen ; Speedy AR rendering ; High-quality cameras

Expensive ; 12.9-inch model is uncomfortably large in hands

Apple's new iPad Pro pushes the limits of what an iPad can do, but it does so at the price of a MacBook.

This revision to 2018's model adds some updates, but its best feature may be on your iPad, too.

Apple iPad Pro review 2020: small spec bump, big camera bump

So, is it a computer?

Great display ; Fast ; Trackpad support

Paying for LIDAR you may not use ; iPadOS limitations still grate ; No headphone jack

Apple’s new iPad Pro tablets for 2020 are an iterative year-over-year update. There’s a new wide-angle camera, support for a trackpad, and LIDAR for augmented reality. There’s more than enough hardware power for nearly anybody here, but is there a...

Apple iPad Pro (12.9-inch, 2020) review

The iPad Pro gets a step closer to becoming a laptop replacement thanks to trackpad support, superfast performance and a promising Magic Keyboard.

Stellar performance ; Intuitive and useful trackpad support ; Vivid and superbright display ; Awesome cameras ; Long battery life

Previous model is a better value ; No headphone jack ; Expensive (Accessories sold separately)

Apple's iPad Pro 2020 is a modest update but trackpad support justifies the high price, and makes this the best tablet yet.

2020 iPad Pro Review: Don’t call it a laptop replacement

The iPad is in many ways like the electric cars of the automotive world. Range anxiety is one of the biggest concerns for many EV buyers, which is why there are still so many gasoline engine cars on the road. Much the same, in laptops versus tablets,...

Timeless hardware design ; Superb performance ; Display is excellent ; Speakers and microphone punch above their weight

Charging feels slow in 2020 ; 3rd-party trackpads lack three finger gestures ; Can get expensive depending on configuration and accessories

iPad Pro 2020 review (12.9 inch)

The iPad Pro 12.9 is the best tablet you can buy, with blazing speed, long battery life, improved cameras and trackpad support. But it's not a great laptop replacement (yet).

Overall, I highly recommend the iPad Pro 12.9 for those who want a tablet first and a laptop second, and we can confirm that the Magic Keyboard is the accessory that iPad Pro owners want when it comes time to type. It's almost a game-changing accessory...

Here’s how the new iPad Pro compares to the 2020 iPad Pro

Apple debuted the 2021 iPad Pro lineup just over a year after the 2020 iPad Pro arrived. The new M1 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro bring a number of hardware updates and capabilities beyond the switch to the powerful Apple Silicon chip. Not sure about...

Review: Apple IPad Pro 2020 | Apple's Laptop Dreams For IPad Are Now Almost True Apple iPad Pro 2020

Despite the fact that the latest Apple iPad Pro 12,9” (2020) has barely been upgraded, it is still the best.

By far the fastest tablet. Fantastic screen. Now with mouse support and excellent keyboard as an accessory.

Poorer battery life than its predecessor. Fast charging is not included. Very expensive fully developed.

The text may sound negative compared to the character. This is because we are disappointed that the news is so moderate, compared to the massive upgrade the previous model change offered us. But the iPad Pro is still the world’s best tablet. No one...
