Just need thinner fingers I guess. Get those finger exercises going.
You are not.. a second camera would be useful. But I always thought it was unlikely.
Look how long it took them to reposition the one they had.
Yes, been in since 2023. It never feels right when you get in when you zoom out of the chart, but I bet you'll be happy soon enough.
im one of those with a 2018 iPad Pro...and ..i still dont know? lol i feel like even the 2018 is still pretty much solid for anything iPad can (or rather I ) throw at it? i cant believe ive had this damn thing so long..I guess the main draw here is that the base model now comes with 12gb ram. Otherwise, I am not sure what to make of it. I definitely won't be upgrading from my M4 iPad, and I suppose it will make for a decent upgrade for users still on M1 or older iPads? To those to stuck with their 2018 iPad pros, now is as good a time as any.
I have m4 iPad Pro with 256GB and 8GB ram and was going to upgrade but seeing as I use it slot for just media I can’t justify spending 2k on 1TB
I guess the Apple's new desired target mass market, promote on the website, don't want more power. However, for the professionals that still exist: where is the Mac Pro M5 PRO & MAX high end versions? Why don't they launch it anymore together??? Who wants to buy and Old M4 MAX?
I would love to, but PWM flickerI guess the main draw here is that the base model now comes with 12gb ram. Otherwise, I am not sure what to make of it.

My 2018 iPP is going to die before the iPad Air gets promotion isn’t it… Hopefully it survives another year.
Well I think it’s time for me to upgrade from my 2018 iPad Pro. I’ll probably go for the 1tb cellular. I just need to do some research on the nano screen.
This is fantastic news!!
Comparing iPad Pros M4 alongside the M5.. there is absolutely no need for anyone to upgrade if you have an M4.
Unless you really need to go from what is already a mega beast in performance... to a slightly better beast!

I am going to upgrade from 13" M2 iPad Pro to the 11" M5 iPad Pro. Not because I need something faster, but because I want the smaller size. 13" was too big and only was good while writing on it (which was not as frequent as I thought I would do it)

My M1 iPad 12.9" has 16GB of RAM, so I'm still good for at least one more trip 'round the sun.
One of the better Apple hardware investments I've made.

Curious can I return my unopened ipad pro m4 to the best buy apple store or does it have to be the actual apple store?
The world is better off having too fast of hardware for developers to grow into using, than too slow of hardware where software can't grow legs and run with.
This is an iPad topic. Not a MacBook topic.
It would have to be Best Buy. Apple won't be able to issue a refund since you paid Best Buy the money.
These are mature devcies. The Macbook was just totally refreshed in 2020. What possible "innovation" is there going to be for a laptop? At some point the design will be tweaked or slimmed or whatever but "innovation" is meaningless garbage.
Same for iPad. The iPad has been similar for a long time because it's a great device. What is there to innovate? A second camera on front? That's not innovation. What do you even want them to innovate? Should your iPad cook you waffles? Or is this really a software complaint which is irrelevant here.
Great, can’t wait to get one to never use it to its full potential. /s
As an owner of the M4 12.9” iPad I can just see it as a media consumption device. The apps to it are still baby apps, Lightroom and Photoshop is unusable for serious editing. An Air is less money and 10.000% more productive. Why o why all this obsession with performance?
Not in the slightest. First, apps don't come close to the edges of the screen's real estate (how are you going to "accidentally" click on one)? Also, you can simply create dead pixels around the edges so the screen real estate is still active, but there's no "input" for false positives.
Like it or not, full edge-to-edge screens are not only the future, they should have been in our hands years ago. Thick bezels are beyond dated. Can you imagine someone going back to the large chins of older iPhones and being OK with them? No, folks would laugh at ya. But it's the same thing .... like someone saying all those years ago .... "what's the fascination with eliminating the large chin? Without it you'll always be accidentally clicking the home button."
My M1 iPad Pro is finally starting to feel slightly sluggish on iOS 26 but I blame that more on the bloated OS than anything. Even so, waiting for the 2nm M6 in the next model.
I’m curious if the 1TB model will include 24GB of memory? Also wondering how much we need that memory on an iPad for typical usage. Now that the iPad has a proper system to swap to SSD, and this new SSD is twice as fast, it would seem less important with the base starting at 12GB. Also wondering if the 1TB model gets the 10-core CPU? It says “up to 10 core”, have they been doing this on recent iPad Pro models?
I would honestly get an Air if they ever put an OLED in it and if had more memory. Perhaps they would do a non-tandem OLED which wouldn’t be as bright.
