Apple announce a New iPad Pro for 2021!

The iPad Pro is Apple’s top of the range iPad, which has now been refreshed for 2021 with some new features and specs.

There are two different screen sizes available; the 11-inch and the 12.9-inch, with either Wi-Fi only, or Wi-Fi + Cellular functionality. Storage starts at 128GB, going all the way up to a massive 2TB. Most of the features we’ll talk about below are shared across both models, with the exception of the screen and battery, where the 12.9-inch model not only has a larger screen, but also features Apple’s Retina XDR display which Apple say “brings extreme dynamic range to iPad Pro, offering a stunning visual experience with more true-to-life details”.

Both iPad Pro models also feature the M1 chipset which will give it plenty of performance with Apple claiming up to a 50% increase compared to the 2020 model.

Like the new iPhone 12 and 12 Pro, the iPad Pro now supports 5G (Wi-Fi + Cellular model with a compatible data plan) allowing you to connect to the internet at blazing fast speeds (5G Coverage checker UK)

As for the cameras, the front facing (selfie) camera is now a 12MP, f/2.4 (ultrawide), with video recording in 1080p up to 60fps. The rear has a dual camera setup, with the main camera being 12MP f/1.8 (wide) and the second being a 10MP, f/2.4 (ultrawide) lens. Video can be recorded in 4K up to 60fps.

The cost of the new iPad Pro will depend on which screen size you choose (11-inch/12.9-inch), whether you want Wi-Fi only, or need Wi-Fi + Cellular for a 4G/5G data plan, and finally how much storage you need, starting at 128GB going all the way up to 2TB. To simplify things we’ve added a pricing table below to show the Apple direct UK pricing.

Both the iPad Pro 11-inch and 12.9-inch models are available to pre-order on Friday 30th April, with deliveries expected to commence in the second half of May.
