Oh boy, the influx of comments about the "overkill iPad" are about to come again.
That looks like the feature has come moment for ipad laptop replacement folks with ios26 and previously underutilized sheer power.

Like what a samsung dex wanted to be back in the day.

I will enjoy my discounts on m4 for basic tablet stuff meanwhile.
 
I probably trade-in in Bestbuy My 13" M4 for the New M5, like I did with the M2 for the M4.
Not the biggest change but is very light and fast compared to the M2, and before the price drops even more for the M4
 
Apple is surprisingly aggressive about keeping the iPad Pro spec’d up, considering it isn’t a high-volume seller for them, and they have a tendency to neglect Pro lines that aren’t big sellers (cough, Mac Pro, cough).

If only they would give us an iPad Mini with a nice screen transition and pro-like features.

I've been desperate for a good iPad Mini, and I'm holding out until I get the perfect one.

Wouldn’t be time for better battery life in iPads ? Now the battery life seems poor compared to MacBooks and iPhones
 
Still rocking my M1 iPad Pro 12.9 from May 2021. It has not failed me yet (for performance). Battery is around 86-88%
 
I was hoping we would see a bump to 12gb ram, but I guess they want to encourage sales of the 16gb variant
 
Did I make a mistake trading in my MBP for the M4 iPad Pro 13”, instead of waiting till October? I still have time to return etc., I do love my iPad now with the MK.
