THE iPAD PRO 2021 IS A HUGE STEP
UP for Apple’s tablet experience, but is it
one that you need? If you want the very
best tablet that money can buy, and a slate
that can achieve almost anything you want
a computer to, this is likely your perfect
purchase right now.
The iPad Pro 2021 12.9-inch isn’t for
everyone, though. The biggest caveats
are that it’s incredibly expensive, and that
it’s an overwhelmingly large device for
those who don’t need a screen this big. For
those who can handle both the physical
size and the price tag, though, this is an
outstanding offering that boasts next-gen
power and a truly gorgeous new Liquid
Retina XDR Mini LED display, with
max brightness levels unseen on
other tablets.
The peak brightness is arguably
excessive at 1,6 00 nits, as we found
that too much of a strain in everyday
use. The display also has a 120Hz
refresh rate, which means the on-
screen image refreshes twice as
fast as on many other tablets for a
smoother look and feel.
Much has been made of Apple’s
M1 chipset, and this is the first
time the company has included
its new, own-brand silicon in an
iPad. This will greatly benefit
those who work in creative
fields, such as photography and
