You can’t just fire up the default camera app and start shooting ProRes 4K videos. The iPad Pro has two supposedly powerful cameras backed by a powerful ISP, which enables ProRes video capture, turning the tablet into “a complete mobile video studio.”īut here’s the interesting part. More Pro apps, please Joe Maring/Digital TrendsĪpple throws around words like “breakthrough performance” and “unmatched pro features” - but those features are neither equitably divided, nor really here. Also, did I mention that the thousand-dollar Apple tablet doesn’t support wireless charging? Rumors say that Apple is cooking up wireless charging for the iPad Pro, but I will believe it when I actually see it happen. Far less expensive Android phones have already touched the 100W+ charging mark, and we’re already staring at 200W+ charging for phones in 2023.Īpple has a really, really long way to catch up. But even that’s not sufficient considering the price tag. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, on the other hand, goes all the way up to 45W. But it’s not just about the capacity, as Apple really needs to amp up the charging pace.Ī tablet as expensive as the iPad Pro is still limited to just 20W charging. If Apple is envisioning the iPad Pro to double as your take-anywhere computing buddy, it seriously needs to address the battery life concerns. Plus, the macOS software powering it is far more productive at getting serious work done than the iPad. The MacBook Air will last you 18 hours while also saving you a few hundred dollars. The M2-powered MacBook Air costs $1,499 for the 512GB base storage variant, and with a keyboard attached to it. Adding the Magic Keyboard accessory will balloon the cost all the way up to $1,750. The 512GB storage trim of the iPad Pro costs $1,399 - without the keyboard - for the non-cellular version. Let’s compare the value aspect, too, while we’re at it. At those tasks, the “10 hours battery life” claim is drastically trimmed. You buy the iPad Pro for “Pro” stuff like video editing or other demanding creator-centric tasks. The basic iPad can handle that like a champ at nearly one-third of the budget. But the reality is that you don’t buy the iPad Pro for web surfing. This is bad from a generation-over-generation perspective, obviously. For the past three generations, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro model has been stuck on the “up to 10 hours of surfing” battery promise. This is a big weak area that the iPad needs to address. Long overdue battery upgrades Joe Maring/Digital Trends How bad is a 2012 iPhone camera in 2023?
