[@galefraney]

Very strange ... I took both my M4 13" iPad Pro outside with brights turned fully up, and compared it with my M1 12.9" iPad Pro (that supposedly has 600 nits SDR brightness, versus 1000 nits on the M4) ... however, both displays appear identical in bright light. I'm not seeing the difference you are describing. I am being 100% honest ... I love the new M4 13" iPad Pro for its hardware, the new keyboard, the added functionality of the Pencil Pro and for its future proofing for upcoming Ai tools. But as far as the display goes, this new OLED display has pretty much identical brightness with the prior mini-LED screens, except for the small 'optical illusion' of the mini-LED screen having a lightly more 'blueish tone of whites' and the OLED screen having a slightly more "yellowish white tone". Both look great ... the blueish-white of the mini-LED screen might make the overall colours slightly less saturated, but digital artists and graphic designers might find the mini-LED screen to be more accurate and neutral. So other than the slight difference in "white balance" (which is subjective and is what's creating this slight 'optical illusion' of the new OLED screen being brighter, I can honestly say the difference is so slight as to be almost unnoticeable. Both screens are excellent. I use both iPads side by side on a daily basis and can confidently say that the mini-LED display is just as good, all this initial gushing over the OLED display is either 'exaggerated enthusiasm over this new toy' or an opportunity for a new video topic around the latest hype. After a few months when the hype settles down, most users will likely admit that both screens are pretty much equal. (I've also done comparison with UHD content and have to really look hard to find significant difference).

[@nuggyfresh6430]

I'm genuinely confused how you could see no difference, so weird. Are you older? No offense I just honestly don't understand. It's almost twice as bright. I also have these exact displays (the new 13 inch and the M1 12.9) and I've also used them side by side and I just can't believe you would say they're the same.

[@Duvdeve]

Maybe you have the nano glass or you applied different screen protectors. These are different screen technologies they don't look and act the same

[@galefraney]

@@nuggyfresh6430 ... I have spent years doing graphic design and digital art, working in all colour spaces (P3, sRGB, Adobe RGB, CMYK, etc) work with high resolution images and projects over 25 Gb per file (in PSB format) ... so am capable of distinguishing accurate colour and brightness without any issues or barriers (as your question regarding age suggests). I am just being totally honest that other than the M4 OLED display being calibrated with 'brighter whites' vs the mini LED screens having a slight 'blueish-white' tone (which then makes all colours appear slightly less saturated) ... but other than this, the actual brightness appears pretty much equal. I've done hours of side by side comparison, watching KZbin videos including HD ... I've compared the 2 screens watching Avatar - Way of Water, pausing on the exact same video frame on the 12.9" M1 mini-LED next to the 13" (standard glass) M4 OLED screen ... watching with Dolby Vision ... and only when I paused the video and compared very closely ... then I was able to notice a bit of sharper resolution on the OLED M4 iPad Pro screen when comparing the details of jewelry, braided hair and other small details. However, comparing both the M4 13" OLED (standard glass) iPad Pro or the 2021 M1 12.9" iPad Pro displays against my older 2018 12.9" older display ... the comparison is night and day. The older 2018 IPS LCD display appears far dimmer, and the whites appear almost 'tan' or 'sepia' by comparison to both the M1 mini-LED screen and the M4 13" tandem OLED displays. With the 2018 12.9 iPad Pro, the difference is extreme. But interestingly when viewing content at night, I often reach for this older model because it's 'easy on the eyes', in a dimly lit room ... so even that old iPad is still useful. But I bought the 2TB 13" M4 iPad Pro for the hardware, Ai handling, future proofing ... and love the keyboard and Pencil Pro ... so it's well worth buying ... but as far as the display goes ... it is subtle step up from the previous mini-LED displays.

I understand maybe it’s dependent on what you use your iPad for but judging by the thousands of comments saying the software sucks… then be happy there is no need to upgrade every 5 mins. Literally this year is just a nice screen and a faster chip that no one will hardly notice. When you make a purchase or an m- series Mac or m-series iPad the plan should be to keep it for years to come!

@@HokutoShiinKen OLED from what we’ve seen doesn’t easily burn in if you’re driving the display panel efficiently. Some panels like the one used in Nintendo Switch can stay at high brightness at the same static image for months before burning in. With tandem OLED you have two panels working together which means bigger surface area per pixel so you don’t need to drive the panels using high power to get your ~500 nits. The lower brightness you use the less likely it will burn in so I’m confident this will not be an issue for me.

That sustained performance on the M4 was suprising. The lowest loop score of the M4 has 96,5% of the performance of the M2 chip's best loop. Even over time with heavy workloads this ipad could perform the same as the actively cooled Macbook Pro with the M2 in terms of gpu performance and probably outperform it on the cpu front. If Apple opened up the OS to support mac applications the sales would probably explode and this device would be next to impossible to get.

I found indeed it is brighter, better contrast and more punchy colours and of course buttery smooth. What I did not like is that it has quite a warmer tone, skins tone is not great. When I kept M1 and M4 Pro side by side it was quite evident - M1 I found more neutral and natural colours. I’ve done lots of photo editing and quite sensitive to colour accuracy - did not find M4 convincing enough to and worth $1,300 USD.

Apple usually listens to their customer's requests about 4-6 years later. The air should have been thinner, and the pro should have had more battery life.

[@RockOn-h9h]

If you got a 12.9 iPad Pro 6th gen it’s not worth the upgrade to go 10 percent faster because you won’t notice it

[@abholcombe93]

If you own an iPad Pro with an A12X or A12Z chip and it’s still snappy and responsive, then you should keep it and enjoy it. If the battery health is not good then get another battery installed by Apple. This is especially true if you have an M1 or M2 Pro as these two previous gens are still overkill for iPadOS. Keep what you have and enjoy it.

We need ipad pro 2022 vs ipad air 2024 comparison

[@drunkaviator81]

Blacks are better, but Whites are much worse on OLED. Definitely a dirty yellowish look to my eyes comparing to my M1. In isolation it's probably fine, but running in sidecar with my MacBook Pro, the difference would be noticeable.

[@dontcareboutname1]

lol. I’m still using my 11” iPad Pro 1st gen. They didn’t change anything but cameras and chip, up until now.

[@muhammadzahirsiddiqui764]

That's what I wanted to hear. Apple's miniLED was mind-blowing considering it had true black unlike the grays on typical LCDs. The colour accuracy is also great. Of course, with low light you'd have blooming which the tandem OLED doesn't have but man the older display needs due credit. Just last year every single tablet paled in front of a 12.9 inch iPad in display. Even the Samsung OLED with its high reflectivity was bad in front of the miniLED model.

[@muhammadzahirsiddiqui764]

I agree with the conclusion with some add-ons. Gaming / creativity -- no need to upgrade. Videos -- yeah, maybe if you use it in pitch dark. Productivity / Light workplace (meetings etc) -- makes more sense. Don't have one -- buy a MacBook air instead. 🤣

[@Feddefar]

Unfortunately speakers is less clean that in my 4 air feels like they have some filter or like a bit under water idk also they more quiet you must do more then half volume to have good sounds

[@shauneverywhere]

The M4 iPad speakers are good but terrible in comparison to the 2018/M1/M3 speakers, it wins in every other change apart from that but they really messed those speakers up. I guess Apple just assumes everyone is happy wearing AirPods all day now 🙄

[@Canoneosmiami]

Did you compare the lack off 5G antennas in areas where u get a perfect 5G coverage by those waves ?

[@gileswhitaker9656]

Despite what he says, the screens in his videos look almost identical. I would even say there are less overblown areas on the M2 screens (in the cloud areas). On maximum brightness my M2 iPad Pro burns my eyes inside, so twice as bright sounds crazy, but if you like to work outside in bright sunlight using your iPad, I agree this would be useful. The camera position is the main thing that makes a difference, but overall going from the M2 to the M4 13 inch iPad Pro is a marginal upgrade that I will be skipping. I will upgrade for a larger screen for doing real work on, with more pixels, or a significant increase in performance, like double the M2's speed (~30% doesn't make much difference, in real applications). Also, get rid of the rounded screen corners - they just mean if you want to work in a rectangle, as 99% of professionals do, you lose resolution at the corners.

[@idkwhatnametouse4510]

To be fair, where i live the new ipad pros are actually 6% cheaper

[@null_geodesic]

The burn-in resale value of the new ones will be so bad. OLED is OLED and OLED invariably burns in.

[@jj454]

We’ve had OLED in iOS products since the iPhone X. How many iPhones have had burn in problems? Would love a source

[@null_geodesic]

@@jj454 Nearly all of them have burn in that are actually used for hours for years, there are countless sources if you care to do one google search. For a chronic consoomer who buys a new one each year, it's harder to see.

I just purchased the 12.9, 1TB, cellular with 16GB RAM, for 1299. That is a $700 difference, they cannot make me give up $700 for the M4!

[@LouieFajardo1989]

Your just exaggerating the difference between Mini LED vs OLED, but for average consumers you’ll never see it with your naked eye unless your peeping to this screen closer 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Epicgamer_Mac]

Bro you can see the differences from the video 😭 😭 😭 The miniLED is just a type of LCD which looks quite dull compared to the OLED

[@LouieFajardo1989]

@@Epicgamer_Mac nah, i own M2 iPad Pro 12.9 and i compared it to M4 iPad Pro 13 in the apple reseller store and i couldn’t distinguish the difference, unless you have lots of money to burn in, not worth upgrading.

[@Cotelw8345]

It may look slightly better with an hdr video but unless you have both. You will be happy with the mini led. People get fooled by new things. Mini led is still great. Oled is better but is it worth spending 1000 if the screen is slightly better. I say no. I have an iPhone and the mini led iPad. I can go back and forth and have no issues with brightness.

Can't wait for these tandem OLED displays to come to the Macs.

[@mhmphotography400]

Come on man ! seriously do you really think there is that much of a difference between the two displays to quote “This is a world of a difference” …..As far as burn-in ? OLED displays are well known for burn in, this is a well known fact. Don’t get me wrong I think the M4 iPad is amazing and will probably be buying one this week but let’s just Keep it real. That is if Apple allows you to do so. 👍🏽

[@NielsPausma]

I’m afraid to switch to (tandem)oled because of burn-in. Tandem might burn in slower but still it feels like buying a candle

I honestly think apple will make the iPadOS an hybrid with the macOS and iOS soon because all this power on a iPad aren’t making much sense if we can’t take advantage it…

[@stricken1666]

They’re almost caught up to the 14in Samsung ultra tablet with the camera on the long side that Samsung released 3 years ago.

[@Quantum_BOI]

Honestly I feel that the iPad needs to have a proper purpose. Apple wants it to be a computer, and a magical piece of glass. But it can end up being neither of those. For example, the iPad is now too thin and can break REALLY easily. It has a computer chip, but you can't do computer things with it.

[@nuggyfresh6430]

uhh do you have one? It doesn't break easily, at least compared to the thicker one last year (I have both). But, just so you know, plenty of people do computer stuff on it all the time, so I'm just confused what your point is? If you want a laptop, I invite you to get one, or wait for WWDC in a few weeks...

[@antoniojohnson3925]

I'll keep my M2 12.9 2 TB and just buy the new keyboard case .May get the regular one for my dad to check his stocks.

[@subhadeepdutta3086]

Great video bro. Waited for it.

[@cocoGioia]

The refresh was flawless! The review was incredibly insightful, especially highlighting the display brightness difference in SDR and outdoor use, a crucial aspect for everyday iPad users. Your in-depth review highlighted the M4's powerhouse performance, capable of running Triple-A games at a stunning 60fps in 2K or an impressive 90 to 120fps in 1080p. The portable performance is just insane!

[@minddrug709]

Very few people use their iPads outdoor.

[@umutberkayyldrm2218]

Are the cases and screen protectors suitable for the 12.9 inch iPad Pro suitable for the 13 inch iPad Pro?

[@muhammadzahirsiddiqui764]

The graph in GPU performance wasnt bad at all. It only dipped less than 10% as opposed to "dropping dropping dropping". I honestly like this channel and their videos and charts but their narration is kind of biased a bit. Max overall does a better job among the two and doesnt overhype things a lot. What he is saying is true but exaggerated a lot.

[@muhammadzahirsiddiqui764]

Again, he mentions that it's just the 9c version kicking ass of M2 and "not even 10c". While their other video clearly showed that 9c/8GB Vs 10c/16GB was barely a difference. Maybe I'm missing something here but still I do believe that the narrative should be unbiased and logical instead of excitement and exaggeration. All that said, I still love this channel among many others. It's just feedback which hopefully will be taken positively.

[@velvetthundr]

imagine making the Liquid Retina XDR Display (previously the world's best display on a tablet) look bad in a HDR test...

[@DeMindsetMasteryAcademy]

You said the mini led was the best now its not good anymore😂

[@Jimmyfly215]

As an iPad Pro m2 12.9 user, at the end of the day the iPad can never meet the true performance for 99% of daily tasks. These two iPads are nearly identical minus the screen. I personally think apple released these new iPads so their lower end model iPads sell off the shelves.

@MaxTechOfficial Please tell me how things are with the battery life on the iPad Pro 13" M4? I don’t like the battery life on my iPad Pro 12.9" M2, when i watch KZbin on it via Wi-Fi, the battery percentage melts before your eyes... Does the iPad Pro 13" M4 last longer when watching KZbin videos, Netflix, etc.? Or does it have the same battery life as the iPad Pro 12.9" M2?
