The brand new OLED iPad Pro is an impressive tablet that provides more power in an even thinner design. With a Tandem OLED display, a powerful M4 chipset and other upgrades, the 2024 iPad Pro is a true successor to the previous 2022 iPad Pro. That said, Apple quietly pushed several changes into the mix, making it harder to know what's changed and what's missing. Some features may surprise you, while others may feel like a downgrade. If you're in the market for a new iPad, you need to be aware of lesser-known facts and features about the new 2024 iPad Pro. Go ahead!
M4 iPad Pro – 30 things you did NOT know!
Just like the 2022 iPad Pro, the latest 2024 iPad Pro has a 12MP f/1.8 primary camera. However, it lacks the 10MP ultra-wide camera available on the previous iPad Pro M2. This may come as a big surprise, but yes, the M4 iPad Pro has a single-lens rear camera rather than a dual-lens system.
You get a LiDAR, an adaptive True Tone flash and a digital zoom up to 5x. That said, removing the 10MP ultra-wide lens is a big and surprising move by Apple. After all, we are talking about the company's top model iPad Pro. It is likely that the ultra-wide lens was not used much by iPad users. Apple may have thought that most people wouldn't even notice that the ultra-wide camera is missing from the 2024 iPad Pro. Whatever the reason (or excuse), it feels like a downgrade on the state-of-the-art iPad.
If you're planning to buy a new iPad for photography, it's a good idea to consider the 2022 iPad Pro. Plus, if you already own one, you can brag that your tablet is better than the latest offering, at least in the camera department.
