Yes i agree with you, but the next iPad Mini needs to have a 120 hz display (and the Air) for sure.
Got a tip for us?

iPad Pro How can the M4 Tandem iPad Pro be Improved ?

I’d love the m4 iPad but with always on tech for when the iPad is charging.
I would love to see an even bigger iPad Pro, maybe 15 or 16 inch
I have mine on a magnetic stand a lot of the time at home as a second screen, so watching content on a bigger one would be great

If you want better stand by battery life, get a iPad Air 3 with A12 chip. Lasts for months.
Just wanted to say that while the weight savings for the M4 iPad Pro seem minor on paper, I definitely feel and appreciate the difference after a while. I recently dug out my 2018 iPad Pro to play with the iPadOS 26 beta and wow, it suddenly feels so much heavier in comparison. I am not sure how much more room there is for the iPad to improve in this regard, but man, I do notice it.
and the 2018 (12.9) is quite a bit lighter than the M1/M2 (it's actually half way between the M1/M2 and the M4)
I can charge my M4 iPP to 100% and it can be dead in three days without a top-up.
Just 3 days on standby does not sound right at all, mine lasts a couple of weeks maybe a bit less.
I’ve been thinking of exchanging mine for a replacement but just haven’t found the time to do so.
I think Apple will want to keep the IPP really thin to prove that it can be done (although arguably this is the inverse of the MBA/MBP)!
Absolutely needs more battery life - whether that’s via chip efficiency, or whether you build a battery into the MKP.
Build quality of MKP also needs to improve, not sure why we need the rubberised cover any more, an all metal design 👍🏼

Anything hardware wise. Like example speakers but that not required of course. Doubtful Apple or any tablet maker would allow you to customize a tablet like that. It would cost more for both the company and the consumer.
It's getting pretty close to perfection with this form factor and display.
With the M5 you've got improvements to efficiency, as well as the N1 and C1X which again improve efficiency and reliability of wifi, cellular, AirDrop etc.
Maybe an eventual switch to that new silicon carbide battery tech or whatever it is.
If Apple are sticking with the M series chips for the iPad Pro, you're limited in terms of the kind of miniaturization of design that Apple did with the iPhone Air, so I can't imagine it's going to get any crazy design changes.
