A new chic iPad Pro came out! New iPad Pro concepts

Incredibly powerful iPad Pro with the most advanced Apple display is now available in two models: 10.5 and 12.9 inches

iOS 11, which comes out this fall, expands the capabilities of the iPad Pro and displays it to a new level

San Jose, California - Today, Apple introduced a completely new iPad Pro 10.5-inch model and an updated iPad Pro model 12.9 inches. They are equipped with the Advanced Apple Display with Promotion technology, and the A10X Fusion processor provides incredible performance. On the new iPad Pro 10.5 inches, the display frame is reduced by almost 40%, so that the device remains very compact and weighs less than 500 grams. The IOS 11 operating system, which comes out this fall, will further reveal the capabilities of the new iPad: there will be a completely new file application and the configurable Dock panel, multitasking functions will be expanded and closer integration with Apple Pencil will be provided. As a result, on the iPad Pro can be created and work even more efficiently.

"To date, these are the most powerful iPad we created. They are equipped with our most advanced display with Promotion technology, a powerful new A10X FUSION processor and the same advanced cameras as in the iPhone 7, "said Greg Dzhozviak, Apple vice president for product marketing. - And in combination with the capabilities of iOS 11, the new iPad Pro models will change the representation of users about which tasks you can decide using iPad. "

Stunning Display with Promotion Technology

A stunning Retina display on the iPad Pro got impressive opportunities. It supports the new Promotion technology, which provides the update frequency to 120 GHz and guarantees more smooth operation, high response speed and natural playback of graphics. Thanks to Promotion, the response speed of Apple Pencil: the delay time has become a record low - only 20 milliseconds. Now Apple Pencil behaves even more naturally. Promotion also provides excellent image quality and reduces power consumption, since this technology automatically adjusts the update frequency depending on how the image moves on the display.

The advanced Retina display with anti-reflective coating is the brightest of Apple displays created for iPad. It provides excellent visibility of the image both in the room and on the street. True Tone technology dynamically adjusts white balance taking into account the level of illumination so that the image looks more natural and clear. And the advanced color coverage allows you to transmit colors as in digital cinema.

Incredible Performance with A10X Fusion processor

iPad Pro has incredible performance, wide connection capabilities and amazing versatility when solving the most resource-intensive tasks. A new powerful A10X Fusion processor with a 64-bit architecture provides performance higher than many laptops presented today on the market. It easily copes even with such tasks as video games, rendering of 3D images, retouching photos and editing video 4K. Compared to the best in its class A9x processor, a new 6-nuclear processor works 30% faster, and a 12-nuclear graphics processor - 40% faster. At the same time, the new iPad Pro can use all day without recharging.

iPad Pro is the perfect tool for shooting, editing and publishing photos and videos of professional quality. On the front and rear panels, the same advanced cameras are installed as on iPhone 7: Facetime 7 MP HD camera and a 12 megapixel camera with optical image stabilization. Four speakers provide a powerful, clean and voluminous sound at any iPad Pro position. And thanks to the built-in map of Apple SIM 2 and support for Wi-Fi 802.11ac networks and 4G LTE Advanced 3, you can stay in touch even while traveling in more than 180 countries and regions.

The Touch ID sensor on the iPad Pro works even faster, allows you to instantly unlock the iPad and protects applications with important data. It is used when paying for purchases in the App Store, iTunes Store and IBooks Store. And with the Apple Pay function on the iPad to pay for goods and services in applications and on sites through the Safari browser has become simply like never. four

iOS 11 displays the iPad to a new level

IOS 11 will further reveal the capabilities of the new iPad: completely new features will appear, including the files application and the ability to "drag" texts, photos and files from one application to another.

The IOS 11 operating system, which comes out this fall, complements iPad capabilities with new features.

The new custom DOCK panel allows you to open frequently used applications and documents from any screen.

Advanced multi-valued capabilities, including an improved application switch with a new SPACES function, simplify the switching between applications, and also allow you to use two active applications in Split View and Slide Over modes.

The new file "Files" helps to collect all the files, wherever they are stored: on the device, in ICloud Drive or in other cloud services, such as Box or Dropbox.

Dragging function on the Multi-Touch display is available in any part of the screen and allows you to transfer text, photos and files from one application to another.

The new document scanning function in notes allows you to scan individual pages or multi-page documents, adjusts the swollen areas and uses image filters so that the text is clear and easily read.

Thanks to closer integration with Apple Pencil, it has the opportunity to draw between the paragraphs of the text and make an entry from hand in notes and mail. Using instant markup, you can sign documents, annotate PDF files and make sketches on screenshots, and the new "snap-in notes" function allows you to open notes from the lock screen, simply touching the display of the Apple Pencil tip. In addition, you can now search words written from the word or symbols.

Apple Pencil and SMART Keyboard Keyboard

Apple Pencil and SMART Keyboard keyboard are purchased separately and help to improve iPad Pro functionality and work accuracy. Apple Pencil has advanced sensors that measure the pressing force and the angle of inclination, so you can also draw, annotate and taking notes can also be as natural as a conventional pencil. For iPad Pro 10.5 inches specially developed a new full-size SMART keyboard keyboard, very thin and durable, not requiring recharging or connecting via Bluetooth. And if you fold it, it will turn into a reliable cover Smart Cover.

Apple has not changed the design of its iPad for a long time - if the model is in demand, then you should not resort to any changes. But after the shelling success of the iPhone X last year, it seems that the company intends to release an updated version of the iPad Pro "iPad X" tablet in 2018.

Apple does not disclose the details of the new model, but some information begin to appear on the Internet. The most important of them is that the next generation iPad the transition button to the main screen will be there in the same place, where on the iPhone, and integrate into the display.

Still, it is still unclear what place in the tablet line will be held iPad X, because Apple has three models of tablets: iPad, iPad Pro and iPad mini.

Ipad Pro 2018 Output Date (iPad X) in Russia (start date of sales)

The latest iPad Pro models were announced on the past WWDC on June 5, 2017 and are available for purchase now. Of course, the next announcement should be expected at this summer, but we hope that some additional information can be found on the usual spring press release: about iPad mini 5, and the long-awaited one.

On February 21, the Consomac francophone site reported that Apple registered two new devices described as tablets running the IOS 11 operating system, with the database of the Eurasian Commission. Identifiers of new models - A1954 and A1893.

This speaks of the inevitable declaration of new models, just as information about iPhone 7 and Airpods appeared two weeks before the official release. The presentation of new models in March looks quite likely, but to the end it is unknown whether it will be a regular press release or a full-scale media event as in 2015 and 2016.

Sources cited by Bloomberg are predicted, on the other hand, new iPad will be released more than a year after the latest iPad Pro update. Presumably, this will happen in the late summer - early autumn, in August-September 2018. This may mean that new models, the release of which is expected at the beginning of the year will be less significant.

What price will be the new iPad Pro 2018 (iPad X)?

IPad X is likely to be an impressive gadget, but not cheap.

The price for the iPad Pro with a 10.5-inch screen, 64 GB of memory and Wi-Fi will start with £ 619, and for the model with Wi-Fi + Cellular - from £ 749; For iPad Pro with a 12,9-inch screen, 64 GB of memory and Wi-Fi - £ 769 and £ 899 per model with Wi-Fi + Cellular.

Even if the iPad X will have a screen size less than 12.9 inches, you should still expect that it will cost closer to the premium model. The approximate price will start with £ 999.

Main change in the design of the new iPad Pro 2018 (iPad X)

Apple is expected to bring some changes in the design of the iPhone X in 2018.

Bloomberg sources suggest that at least one of the new iPad models will be equipped with a screen that will occupy the entire surface, and goes from Touch ID to Face ID.

The model will have a screen size close to 10.5 inches, but removing the transition button to the main screen will allow you to increase the screen size to 11 inches or save the same by reducing the thickness of the frame around the screen.

Presumably, the screen will not be created based on OLED. Perhaps this will happen because of the difficulties that have arisen in production (and shortages in the supply) when creating screens for iPhone X.

"Modern iPad"

Commands about the appearance of a "modern iPad", which was presumably already in development, appeared after the appearance of the code of the new operating system. Apple has already used the definition of "modern iPad" before the iPhone X messages appear, first of all, which distinguish gadgets with the screen on the entire surface and Face ID technology from other smartphones produced at the same time.

The first photos of the iPad Pro 2018 concept appeared (iPad X)

It is too early to expect photos or factory images of a new model, but drawings of the concept are available. It should be understood that the drawings are represented by people who are not associated with Apple and visualize rumors around the design of the new model.

There are several illustrations of the next iPad Pro model from Martina Haeka, which depict a gadget with an expected screen in the entire surface, which is missing the transition button to the main screen and the groove around the screen. He also provided a few illustrations of Apple Pencil in black and silver performance.

Specifications and new iPad Pro 2018 (iPad X)

Let's look at the internal changes in the new iPad.

CPU

The latest iPad models are equipped with new A-series chips, which are based on the same architecture as the iPhone presented last year. For example, Chip A10 integrated into iPhone 7 and 7 Plus has 2 high-performance processor kernels, 2 kernels, a 6-nuclear graphics processor and 3 GB of RAM.

A10X integrated into iPad Pro has 3 high-performance processor kernels, 3 kernels, a 12-core graphics processor and 4 GB of RAM. In the same way, it is expected that new iPad 2018 models will be equipped with A11X chip based on A11 BIONIC, which were used in iPhone 8 and iPhone X.

Referring to the information from Apple suppliers, the Chinese website of MyDrivers argues that the A11X chip will have three high-performance processor kernels (2 in A11), 5 nuclei (4 A11) and using the technological process of creating a TSMC will have a thickness of 7 nm. The thickness of the chip A11 is 10 nm.

It goes without saying that the new chip will have a large number of RAM and the number of cores of the graphics processor. It would be strange if it were not so.

Should I buy iPad Pro 2018 (iPad X)?

You should answer this question. Ask yourself a question, for what purpose do you need this ipad? Is this purchase promising and justified? If so, then Apple technology will be waiting for you in September of this year, on the counter of the nearest store.

At the end of October 2018, Apple introduced 3 new braes at the presentation in New York: MacBook Air, MacBook Mini and iPad Pro. Undoubtedly, all 3 devices deserve close attention, but in the proposed review we will talk exclusively about fresh ipade. For 2017, the ipads were sold more than all laptops combined. Thus, the iPad Pro is at the same time the most popular tablet and portable PC. Agree, what is not a reason to consider first of all the new iPad.

Equipment and design iPad Pro 2018

The standard package includes the following components:

apple iPad Pro 2018 tablet of the selected configuration;
cord for charging USB Type-C length 1 meter;
power adapter with a power of 18 W.

Immediately, let's say that you can order useful accessories for an additional fee, including the innovative Apple Pencil Stylus of the 2nd generation and the SMART Keyboard Folio keyboard. We will talk about them more about them later.

The new iPad Pro comes to the market with two display options:

11 inches - This option has dimensions of 247.6x178.5x5.9 mm and the weight of 468 g;
12.9 inches - Dimensions of this configuration 280.6x214.9x5.9 mm, and the mass depends on network modules (versions only with Wi-Fi weigh 631 g, and versions with Wi-Fi + Cellular support - 633 g).

We can say that "apple" engineers competently thought out the design of the new line of tablets. Thus, the 11-inch version of 2018 has almost the same dimensions as iPad Pro 10.5 inches. However, the novelty received a larger display. This was achieved due to the maximum decrease in the framework. They turned out to be truly thin. True, because of this, I had to remove the "Home" button and minimize the dimensions of the front camera, but it is unlikely that someone from users will complain about it.

the iPad Pro 2018 is 12.9 inches, too, turned out to be crammed, but this is not the only high raisin. The tablet has become 25% less than a similar version of the last generation. It had a positive effect on ergonomics and, accordingly, on the convenience of use.

Despite the fact that Apple reduced the tablets as much as possible, the new items did not remain without important structural elements:

Top end Equipped with two speakers (right and left), immediately three microphones (located in the center above the front camera), a multifunctional button responsible for switching on / off the device, as well as for its transition to sleep mode and awakening (located near the right face).
Nizhny Taings Also equipped with a pair of speakers and, most pleasant, USB Type-C socket. This port is able to perform a number of functions. In addition to charging, it can be used to connect other devices (cameras, smartphones, monitors). That is, you can display a picture on large screens and enjoy the passage of games or watching movies. Also, the tablet can be used to charge other portable devices.
Left Grand Almost completely clean. There is only 1 microphone.
Right Grand Equipped with loud swings (at the top), as well as a magnetic area (located in the center). You can attach the above Apple Pencil mentioned above. The bottom there was a place for a slot for Nano-SIM cards.

As for the back of the iPad Pro, then the user will detect it:

branded screwdriver apple (where without him);
the main chamber and the flash module (at the top of the left);
Smart Connector required to connect to the keyboard (downstairs at the center).

To finish the topic of design, let's say about color options. There are only 2 of them: silver and gray space.

Stylus and keyboard new iPad Pro

At the presentation of the iPad Pro 2018, accessories were also presented: Apple Pencil Stylus and Smart Keyboard Folio Keyboard. We also decided not to bypass them. Moreover, there is something to tell.

So, the stylus has a one-piece design without moving areas and connections. The matte coating allows the accessory to go to the hand in hand, so it is very convenient to work with it. One of the sides of the stylus is flat. It must be applied to the "pencil" to the magnetic area of \u200b\u200bthe tablet for charging. With successful "docking" there is a light click. So you will know exactly what Apple Pencil fastened and the charge began. The lack of wires and additional transmitters makes the operation and storage of the accessory as convenient as possible.

By the way, in Lenovo, if you remember, a separate compartment was invented for the stylus.

Moreover, in a flat zone (where the fingers of the user will be located) are special sensors that will allow you to change tools with double touch. For example, you can quickly switch between pencil and eraser. The general functionality of the new Apple Pencil is truly huge. With it, you can:

draw sketches or full-fledged paintings;
develop interior design;
create architectural projects;
edit photos;
write notes.

In short, the "apple" engineers did everything so that the user does not want to produce this accessory from the hands.

As for the SMART Keyboard Folio keyboard, it allows you to turn the iPad Pro 2018 into a full-fledged laptop. It is made in the format of the book, is primarily adjusted to the rear panel of the device through the above-mentioned Smart Connector.

The keyboard is full-size, contains all the necessary buttons (with the exception of Nampade). With it, you can quickly print texts and play some games. Moreover, the COMMAND button is present on the keyboard. By clicking on it, the user will see a list of available commands and key combinations for their execution. Thus, a pair of clicks can be saved files, change fonts, cut a specific text fragment or copy it.

As the keyboard is made in the form of a book, in the closed position, it covers the ipade on both sides. Thus, it plays the role of not only the control body, but also a protective cover that will save the gadget from scratches and other damage. The user can set the keyboard in 2 positions. In one position it is more convenient to print, in the other - watch movies.

In addition, with the help of this control body, it is much more convenient to enter the tablet to sleep mode and remove the gadget from it. It is enough to close the "little book" and the device "Usinet". Opening the keyboard, you can immediately start work.

As you can see, both accessories can be useful assistants in working with iPad Pro 2018. The only negative is not included in the standard package, so that this pleasure will have to pay extra.

iPad Pro 2018: Display Characteristics

As we mentioned above, Apple has released its new tablet with two display options - by 11 and 12.9 inches. In both cases, the screen is a rectangle with curved edges, ideally repeating the bends of the case. When creating a display, engineers applied the principle "from the edge to edge", due to which the sensor takes the almost entire front panel.

In addition to the diagonal, the iPad Pro screens differ in resolution:

2388x1668 pixels at the iPad Pro 2018 version by 11 inches;
2732x2048 Points at a configuration by 12.9 inches.

The remaining key characteristics are completely identical. You can find them in the table below:

Display Type	Liquid Retina.
The matrix	IPS.
Type of backlight	Led.
Concentration of pixels per inch	264
Reflection coefficient	1,8 %
Brightness	600 cd / m2
Color coverage	Wide, standard P3
Anti-reflective coating	Yes
Support multitouch	Yes
Protection against traces of fingers	Yes
Additionally	Laminated screen coating

As can be seen, the main characteristics of the display are quite impressive. In addition, the iPad Pro 2018 screen has a number of features:

The Liquid Retina display is made according to the method of subpixel smoothing, which allows you to adjust individual pixels so that the edges of the picture perfectly repeated the bends of the case.
TRUE TONE technology carries out white balance auto-tuning. This indicator itself is adjusted for lighting, as a result of which the colors always look natural. In addition, due to this technology, the eye load is significantly reduced.
Promotion technology conducts update frequency. This indicator changes depending on what you do (engage in web surfing, read a text file, edit an image or spend time behind the game). Thanks to this technology, the speed of the sensor response always remains as high as possible.

Summing up the interim outcome, we can say that the iPad Pro 2018 display fully meets the high status of the device. It gives a clear and rich picture that gives you pleasure regardless of what you do.

Technical filling iPad Pro 2018, its testing

The developers equipped the new iPad Pro 2018 an advanced 64-bit 8-core A12X BIONIC chip with M12 movement coprocessor. In the brainstorm tablet, Neural Engine technology performs 5 trillion. operations per second. Thanks to its unique architecture, the new chip is running 90% faster than the central processors of the tablets of the previous generation. In addition, according to the official statements of A12X BIONIC faster than processors of 92% of laptops.

The graphics corresponds to the chip, which is 2 times more productive processors of previous generations. Also, engineers managed to speed up his work at 1000 times. This allowed the tablet to compare in power with the last Xbox. Such "iron" is enough to launch games with full-fledged computer graphics.

As for physical memory, here 4 options are provided to choose from the user: 64, 256, 512 GB and even 1 TB. The possibility of expansion, as usual, is not provided, therefore it is better not to save on this component.

The official statements of manufacturers are, of course, well. But what will we show synthetic tests? To begin with, you will get acquainted with the results of performance testing in the Sunspider benchmark. Recall that in this test the smallest result is the best. That's what we had:

Ipad Pro 2018 test result in Sunspider benchmark

As you can see, a new iPad Pro is 20% more productive than last year's PRO version. He easily bypassed advanced Android gadgets (the same Samsung Galaxy Tab S4). The table expensive could not be competing competition and flagship smartphones (Huawei Mate 20 Pro, Samsung Galaxy Note 9). The only device that managed to close as much as possible to the iPad Pro 2018, was the iPhone XS Max.

IPad Pro 2018 Performance Testing in Antutu Benchmark

In this Benchmark "Apple", the novelty went around last year's tablet for as many as 98%. Serious competition could not compose no one (even iPhone XS MAX).

IPad Pro 2018 Test in Benchmark 3DMark

Fresh iPad Pro has shown the results that are 100% superior to last year's values \u200b\u200bof the PRO version. The iPhone XS MAX was also surpassed by as much as 60%. As for the Android flagship Samsung Galaxy Tab S4, then its indicator is almost three times less than that of the hero of our review.

Practical check also did not disappoint. When starting the latest version of the NBA 2K basketball simulator, the device stably gave 120 FPS. Add here the possibility of outputting the picture on a large monitor and iPad Pro immediately becomes almost a full-fledged substitute for a stationary PC, laptop and gaming console.

In general, in terms of "Iron" engineers really worked for fame. Focus literally not what. However, such high performance provides not only a processor, but also an optimized operating system.

Software shell new iPad Pro

The device under consideration works on iOS 12. The platform was optimized and under iPhones, and IPDADS. With it, it was possible not only to ensure high performance of new gadgets, but also to improve the work of previous generations.

In general, the new version of the Operations allowed:

Apple always tries not to disappoint its users with quality cameras. What did they get this time? Here are the key characteristics of the rear and frontal module:

Characteristic	Basic	Frontal
Resolution	12 mp.	7 mp.
Aperture	f / 1.8.	f / 2,2
Zoom	Digital 5-fold	-
Lens	5-lens	-
Type of outbreak	True Tone Quad-Led	Retina Flash.
Sensor	Bsi.
SMART HDR option	there is
Additionally	Sapphire Glass Lens Protection, IR Filter	Support Animoji and Memoji

To speak more detail, the main camera of the new iPad Pro 2018 supports the following set of functions when photographing:

Panoramic survey with a resolution of up to 63 megapixel.
Automatic focusing pictures using Focus Pixels technology. Also, this technology allows you to focus the image by touching.
Live Photos mode with stabilization of the picture.
Exposure control.
Suppression of noise in the photo.
Auto Stabilization Image.
Serial shooting.
Removal by timer.
Placing a geometry in the photo.

In addition, the main camera supports a wide color range and an improved local tonal compression algorithm. Photos are obtained pretty high quality, but no longer wait for the transcendent results (this is still a tablet, and not a chamber).

Also, the main module supports several key video modes:

4K at 30/60 fps;
1080p at 30/60 fps;
720p at 30 fps;
2 types of slow motion - 1080p at 120 FPS or 720p at 240 FPS;
shot of a timelaps with a stabilization of the video.

It is possible to improve the quality of the roller using the Mentioned Flash True Tone Quad-LED. Kinematic stabilization of the video detection when shooting as 1080 / 720p is supported. During the recording of the rollers, you can include a tracking autofocus and noise suppression feature. Also, when recording video in 4K, you can take photos with a resolution of 8 megapixel. Available for geometry in the rollers. When viewing the filtered clips, you can bring pictures.

As for the TrueDepth front camera, it gives the user such a set of functions:

Photographing in portrait mode with portrait lighting.
Auto Stabilization Image.
Serial shooting.
Exposure control mode.
Removal by timer.
Video recording with 1080p quality at 30/60 FPS.

Separately, it is worth highlighting the fact that the front module supports the FaceID function. Thus, you can unlock your device in one glance, pay the purchase or enter some application.

Network functionality and iPad Pro 2018 sensors

In terms of equipping your brainchild with network modules, Apple engineers also decided to show a variety. 2 options for gadgets came to the market:

With Wi-Fi support. This version supports connections via Wi-Fi with frequencies of 2.4 and 5 GHz. There is also a Bluetooth 5.0 module. The navigation includes a digital compass and the iBeacon location system.
With Wi-Fi + Cellular support. In addition to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0, there are support for mobile networks 2G, 3G and 4G. That is, to access the Internet, you do not need to be near the router, just insert Sims and connect the optimal tariff plan. Enhanced and navigation capabilities. Wi-Fi + Cellular versions support GPS, Galileo, QZSS and GLONASS systems.

Set of sensors are the same for all versions of the device:

3-axis gyroscope;
barometer;
accelerometer;
sensor of external illumination.

Autonomy iPad Pro 2018

According to official data, the considered gadget is equipped with lithium polymer batteries:

iPad Pro 11 inches -29,37 VTCH.
iPad Pro 12.9 inches - 36.71 VTCH.

Developers assure that the device can work up to 10 hours with Wi-Fi connected and simultaneously playing video or listening to music. Wi-Fi + Cellular versions are able to hold out on one charge of about 9 hours. Figures are quite solid. But is everything so good in reality?

Let's get acquainted with the test results of the 11-inch version of the tablet supporting only Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The gadget load implied viewing video with 720p quality with 100% brightness, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module activity, constant sending data by email and on the social network Twitter. This is what the tests showed:

IPad Pro 2018 autonomile verification result

As can be seen, the hero of our review extended only 283 minutes or 4 hours 43 minutes. This is the worst figure among all tested devices. Moreover, the load does not take into account from the permanent connection to mobile networks. Most likely, the version of Wi-Fi + Cellular will show an even weaker result.

Thus, we are forced to state that autonomy is the most important minus of the new line of ipids. The creators provided their brainchild the best "hardware", introduced the widest functionality, but did not think about the time that the user needs to be operated. Of course, you can resort to hectares: Disable background programs, reduce the brightness, periodically disable the network and so on. But isn't we buy premium gadgets for this? To "cheat" with settings and artificially extend to them? Unlikely. So here we put a new ipady in essence, the only but fat minus.

Advantages and Disadvantages of iPad Pro 2018

In the device under consideration, we allocated such strengths and weaknesses:

pros	Minuses
Beautiful stylish design and compact dimensions.	Frankly bad autonomy indicators, because of which the user constantly have to think about charging.
The presence of a USB Type-C port that allows you to connect iPAD to other gadgets (cameras, smartphones, monitors).
High-quality display made on the principle of "from the edge to edge". Thanks to this, the new iPad Pro turned out to be a full-fledged cramless device.	Very high cost iPad Pro 2018; Buy this gadget (even the simplest version) will be able to not everyone.
Powerful technical filling that allows the tablet to quickly perform any tasks: from web surfing before reproducing demanding games.	Frank manifestation of tricks by developers. Yes, they released several versions of the iipads to make it possible to choose from. But it is unlikely that someone will satisfy the youngest configurations with minimal memory and without mobile network support. Apple literally make people acquire versions with a maximum configuration: normal memory and Cellular support. In addition, the stylus and the keyboard, about which a lot was said on the presentation, will have to buy separately. All this pleasure will cost, to put it mildly, silent.

Summing up Let me say that the iPad Pro 2018 could be a practically perfect tablet. He has all the prerequisites: modern design, frameless display, ergonomic design, advanced technical and software equipment. But all spoils its autonomy. Even a high price could be forgiven (taking into account the status). But to demand that money for a quickly discharge apparatus - it is gently say, incorrectly. Although maybe in the future, the developers will "lie down" over optimization and make a tablet more lively. But while the new iPad Pro is a gadget that can a lot, but not long.
Video recluses iPad Pro 2018:

In 2018, Apple traditionally updates the tablet line. And now, some analysts began to make forecasts about the upcoming changes. Ming Shi Koo - an expert who has not been right in his predictions and conclusions., Told the public about the future generation of iPad Pro 2018.

IPad Pro models that will be represented by the American manufacturer in 2018 will receive a new chamber TrueDepth.And also support Face ID technology. Apple integrates to new iPad Pro camera TrueDepth.in order to submit a user interface compatible with and increase competitiveness.

Camera TrueDepth will be only from the flagship model iPad Pro. As for the expert believes that the face recognition feature will also be in demand on the iPad and will be interested in software developers.

Also Kuo believes that Android developers will begin to explore the face recognition technology in order to refuse the fingerprint scanner in its favor. At the moment, Apple has a great advantage compared to its competitors.

Exit a new iPad Pro

As for the date of release of the new iPad Pro 2018, it is, of course, is unknown. Recall that the last time Apple demonstrated an updated Ipad line in June 2017, presenting the public a new 10.5-inch model with a thinner frame around the perimeter.

When will iPad Pro 2 come out? Review and release date

Apple has not yet updated its tablets for a long time, which means that some iPad models are coming. And today, we will talk about one of them - iPad Pro 2. Will the second version of the iPad Pro come out with a 12.9 inch screen? And what updated tablet will? Now we will analyze.

In general, the current iPad Pro 12.9 "is not bad in terms of performance and other chips that Apple has equipped it. It is impossible to say that the first version of the professional ipad is already outdated, because there is a better mobile iron in the industry! The tablet can cope with any loads with a bang! And all thanks to the four-core powerful A9X processor with a 64-bit architecture. Those. In general, it can be said that the first iPad Pro 12.9 "is still good and not necessarily change it, but this does not mean that Apple thinks so. We will analyze what will be iPad Pro 2 and when it comes out.

First of all, I want to note that the iPad Pro 2 will get fresh and current more productive iron, an updated display and an improved camera. What features will open iPad Pro 2 Apple is not yet known.

Display

In every new ipad, Apple puts a new display, which is always brighter and more contrast than the predecessor. Take even for an example. It is equipped with a new display, which is brighter and more contrast than the iPhone 6S display, and it used to seem that the iPhone 6S display is no longer possible. Also, itself and iPad Pro 2 - will receive an updated Retina display with a resolution of 2048 × 1536 pixels (264 PPI) with True Tone technology, which adjusts the display temperature under the surrounding light. Brightness and contrast will rise. Also, the display of the iPad Pro 2 will be coated with a oleophobic coating, which prevents the appearance of traces from the fingers.

Performance

the iPad Pro 2 will most likely be equipped with a new four-core A10X processor with a 64-bit architecture made by 10-nm technical process. Also, A10X will accompany the M10 coprocessor. In addition to the processor, iPad Pro 2 can receive as many as 6 GB of RAM! Let me remind you that in the first version costs 4 GB. Your memory in iPad Pro 2 will be 32, 128 and 256 GB, depending on the model. Apple does not like to increase the amount of permanent memory in new devices, so the previous indicators will remain in iPad Pro 2.

Camera

the iPad Pro 2 will be equipped with a 6-lens chamber of Isight 12 MP with autofocus and Focus Pixels technology. The diaphragm will change with ƒ / 2.2 to ƒ / 2.0, which will better take pictures under poor lighting conditions. Also in the iPad Pro 2 chamber will appear improved noise cancellation technology and optical image stabilization. Flash True Tone - 4 LEDs.

You can write video in 4K format (3840 × 2160 pixels) with a frequency of 30 frames / s, Full-HD - 1080p with a frequency of 30 or 60 frames / s and HD - 720p with a frequency of 30 frames / s. Support for shooting slowdown video with a resolution of 1080r and a frequency of 120 frames / s or with a resolution of 720r and 240 frame frequencies / s.

The FaceTime camera in iPad Pro 2 will receive the same 5 MP, aperture ƒ / 2.0, a video recording with a resolution of 1080p and a Retina Flash flash, which works due to instant flashal of the maximum display brightness.

Food and battery

the iPad Pro 2 will be equipped with a more capable lithium-polymer battery, which will ensure the work of the tablet to 12 hours of work on the Internet on Wi-Fi network and video playback or music. iPad Pro 2 will work 2 hours longer than the first model. This is the iPhone 7 chip, which on Apple's application should work longer than the iPhone 6S. Most likely, this technique will be taken into account in the production of iPad Pro 2.

Home button

Perhaps the iPad Pro 2 will be equipped with a new non-mechanical button "Home" as in. She reads touch and perceives gestures. The second-generation TAPTIC Engine vibromotor is responsible for the response. The Fingerprint Scanner of the Touch ID of the third generation will be built into the button itself.

When iPad Pro 2

The previous version came out on September 9, 2015 and already, passed a year. At the September 2016 presentation, we did not see the second version of the Professional Apad, it means that Apple is not in a hurry to update this device so quickly. It is right, because according to the characteristics of the iPad Pro is still good, he calmly copes with any tasks set by him. Therefore, most likely, Apple needs to update the iPad Pro must pass at least two years. So, most likely, the release date of the iPad Pro 2 is September 2017.
