Exactly. Can't be "confirmed" when Mark Gurman says there's a "chance".

if M1 is too powerful for iPadOS, so I am not sure I M4 will make any difference?! Apple must improve the OS to take an advantage of the powerful hardware

[@Da-fk3gm]

I agree. I bought my M1 ipad pro as my first ipad ever. And I don't really know what needs to be updated. Maybe someone who edits videos or any heavier task may need. But I double any regular consumers need more power than this. I don't play games so I don't know about gaming though. Maybe game needs more power?? I am happy with M1

[@JoseDiaz-qw7mg]

M1 ipad pro user here. Yes, the ipadOS doesn’t put the chip nowhere near its limits, and that is disappointing

If all it’s going to be is oled and m4 that’s all hype and no wow just another seriously over priced/powered iPad that’s same as the old iPad. Hardware isn’t what’s been hurting or holding back iPad Pro it’s the lack of a true OS specifically tailored to unleash the iPad Pro.

[@mehdi969]

Releasing a M4 first in an iPad is just killing the sales of all M3 computers. Everyone will start waiting for the forthcoming upgrades.

[@PSy84]

it wont kill sales if m3 computers. It's the iPad that needs boost in sales as it is in all time low without interest in public. apple computers are doing fine

[@mehdi969]

Ok ! You were right I must admit. It was incredible.

[@vz3_]

I’m looking to upgrade my 2018 iPad Pro which has been serving me wonderfully. The only reason I’m contemplating an upgrade is for OLED, not a chip upgrade. I’ll take it, but I’m worried that M4 might slip the price out of my range.

[@Eismaus]

In 2018 my sellingpoint for the 1. pro 11 was the usb c port. For my usage it is still more than enough. Short of my iPad dying on me there need to be some serious updates to compel me to buy a new one. For me personal that would be, being able to run tasks and apps i still need my Mac at this point. It would be nice to only need one device on the go

[@mejlgaardbliddal]

Having to continue producing the m3 chip for at least 18 months more is the most convincing argument for the m4 alread. We will know next week

[@subhajitjana9543]

when will this new m3 or m4 whatever ia gonna be released?

when will the new mini be out ..

[@victorcazares5524]

Where do I get those wallpapers? 😮

[@jamesnyers1721]

M1 MacBook Air user. Logic is fantastic on the Mac. Logic on the ipad is a waaay watered down version with many missing features. Doesn't matter what chip they put in the iPad Pro if Logic and iPadOS is still crippled. The M1 MacBook Air is a more powerful machine compared to an M4 iPad Pro if software doesn't change on the iPad. Sales WILL be disappointing again if iPadOS stays the same. Even the M1 can't be used fully on iPadOS. Absolutely no reason to upgrade unfortunately.

[@michaelgaraphoto]

Any idea what chip the air is going to have? Will it be released at the same event?

[@Galgomite]

My 2018 iPad Pro is fine. What would convince me to buy would be a hardware redesign that folds the keyboard into it.

[@Worthless.]

is apple going to compare the m4 to the m1 again like they did with the m3 in all their powerpoints and site...

[@thestype]

My 2018 iPad Pro with A12X still going strong. That one was a good purchase, including the magic keyboard.

[@Daonhon]

M4 may likelu be down clocked and less powerful, but more efficient than M3 since iPad Pro is rumored to be thinner, more efficiency cores, and more NPUs?

[@orangeofmars2835]

Appreciate all the power and features that will come with a new iPad Pro but still have to look at how well I can use it as a Macbook replacement. It will take a lot of iPad OS development for me to be convinced. AI is nifty and potentially useful but really would prefer Apple just focused on making the iPad Pro useful as a laptop. So bottom line, I find this all interesting and why I watch these videos, but so far not convinced.

[@chuxx7335]

If the pros come with a M4 chip? It’s a nice touch depending how better it will be , over the M3. The real problem with the iPad Pro isn’t the chip, it’s the fact that , there is so much you can’t do on it, that you can do on MacOS. The IPad Pro has so much processing power that is wasted in its current operating system .

[@augustya7543]

But Vadim all these without the Landscape Camera sounds so less ? Will the iPad Pro 2024 finally have the Landscape Camera?

[@robgardner4754]

Trouble is, the only thing that can really boost iPad sales properly is to make the iPad switch between mobile mode, i.e. iPadOS, and desktop mode, i.e. MacOS. If they did that then sales would go nuts. However, it would cannibalise Mac sales 🤷

[@MovieTakeDown]

I hate to say it. If the iPad has the same design with only minor tweaks like a new display, new Apple Pencil, M3 or M4 (with AI) and new expensive keyboard cover, that’s still not gone be a big enough sale over the 2018 iPad Pro. It’s going to take a full redesign to really get people to upgrade. It just feels like they adding “seasonings” to an already great dish (2018 IPad Pro)

[@Jimmyfly215]

I have a M2 iPad Pro 12.9. there is nothing really they can do to get me to upgrade currently. iPads havent sold well the past several years. it is because there is no separation in the lineup really.

[@Ed-78]

Well thin OLED and M4 is not enough to upgrade needs to be serious software changes to take advantage of hardware

[@michaelkingis]

Does this mean that M4 Mac Studio will come earlier than expected? Maybe WWDC?

[@24th-music]

What if the iPad gets its own chipset? A Models for iphone, P chips for iPads and M chips for the Macs?

[@N3tigen]

As they have multiple m chips. Please Apple put M1/m2 in 12inch MacBook and relaunch. We like the idea of MacBook SE😅

[@bovineox1111]

Confirmed does not mean what you think it does. Also think the term ‘solid evidence’ is also escaping you.

[@ThierryC-te3rx]

Who does understand the N3B compatibility issue ? Compatibility with what ?

[@daveh6356]

How do you know if all other companies rejected the early N3 process? Did they even have access to it? Apple tends to buy out production capacity well in advance & has led the field because of this.

[@thebuildconnect3750]

If it comes with a M4 chip with a MacOS along with an aluminum chassis that would be worth upgrading and sell like hot cakes but if not then don't bother.

[@brettaronowitz4352]

Most people don’t care about the chip or what it’s called. How about putting macOS option on the iPad Pro?

[@fatguy9]

I wonder if ipads will get a built in calculator like the mac, iphone, and apple watch have

[@supdawg7811]

Apparently rumors == confirmation?

[@hh-wg3zw]

How about Apple released a proper OS with a proper file manager for iPad?

[@OzzySafa]

Okay so I have the m1 iPad and if they don’t unlock the full potential of this new m4 chip it will be all for nothing just like the m1 was. They can’t make the same mistake. When I say unlock the full potential I mean have apps that support this and improve the apps to take advantage I want to see major updates to features in their disappointing Final Cut app and I want to see Davinci resolve give us full access of its software without work arounds.

[@ArtemUA94]

iPads are software limited. they can put M10 chip there but you still won’t get much use out of it

[@aidan_3385]

so what should I buy? the M3 MBA or the M4 iPad Pro?

[@jesuszafra1343]

Depends on whether you need a MacBook or an iPad. It’s like trying to compare a banana and a strawberry because they both contain potassium

[@hackstar_yt]

i go with the ipad pro because my ipad pro from 2018 is getting old and i already got a mb air m2. i will be using the ipad pro way more often because of the pen and writing a lot

[@user-dw2nq3zj8g]

Both ideally. But if you need a computer to move around files and have all websites work perfectly, the ipad is a poor computer due to the ipadOS. So get the m3 mba (it is a beast). Remember all M3 chips (m3, pro, max) have the same 4+ghz single core performance. So it is extremely fast. And since it has 3nm, the battery lasts for around 20hrs... that's why I didn't get the m2 or a used m1...3nm is needed for the extreme power efficiency. If you need one of the best drawing tablets, and a much better screen, but you don't need a computer at the moment, then the ipad pro is the better buy since it can do still do what the MacBook air does. It will only be poor at file management, and some websites wont work properly. I am planning to add a m3 ipad pro (or m4) this summer.

[@aidan_3385]

@@hackstar_yt I had the 2018 11inch iPad Pro too but the screen started to fail(no response but still showing images) so I'm considering replacing it with MBA

[@PabloPucciOK]

M3 MBA 16RAM and 512 or 1TB space

[@robgardner4754]

If they do release the M4 next week, it will get interesting because they will have to talk about relative performance to the M2 and so all the calculations will be done to work out just how much better, or not, the M4, M4 Pro and M4 Max chips will be. Could put a lot of people off buying the M3 Macbooks.

[@phbrinsden]

My M1 iPad Air is awesome as is my M2 MBAir. Good for quite a while for what I do. But my M2 MBAir does have 16 gig ram.

That's also means maybe Apple M3 to M4 launch within less than 4 months.😄 Way to early. As M5,A19 in 2025 will be TSMC 2nm.

[@samuelhere41]

So on one hand you said the current iPad cannot utilise all the power of the M2 and then you slate the M3 iPad as being boring! What is it that you want these tablets to be able to do?

[@themouse0237]

Its boring compared to m2

[@RidingTheBadWeather]

Why do you say “it’s confirmed”?? Did you call Tim Cook and got his confirmation, or some email from him stating so?

[@loren8957]

I believe they are introducing the M4 in the iPad Pros for the upcoming AI features, I believe this M4 decision also delayed the anticipated March iPad release. This allows the new AI features to work with an existing iPad when the next OS is introduced at WWDC (and then released). Introducing the M4 iPad Pros before WWDC allows anything (I.e. AI iOS upgrade) to take center stage at WWDC.

[@pvdgucht]

I just hope it has WiFi7. M4 would be a nice bonus especially if it’s 30% more efficient like TSMC says. 😌

[@PumperWolf]

Interesting, this is why they made an event for update the iPad, when it could be just a website refresh.

[@alexanderfazel]

I’m so glad Apple is doing this with the M4 in the iPad Pros. Now the MacBook Pros with M3 Pro and Max will hold the line till late October, when M4 Pro and Max come out. This proves that (due to the N3B node issue) the iPad Mini won’t come out till Sept when Apple will be able to pop in an A18 Pro, under the N3E node. 👍🏻

[@pauljazzman408]

Well it seems weirdly overpowered to me that the iPad gets M4 but the way you explain it makes sense, sort of.

[@John117M63]

Would you buy an 11 inch for $1099 or a12.9 inch for $1399?

[@drsmith1988]

I think another reason that they released it now, is for expansive testing of the new AI features. It will certainly support AI that will be on the iPhone, and will have the memory to support AI that will be on the Mac.

[@zabdielscoon3041]

This definitely makes the iPad Pros way more attractive for 2018 iPad Pro users. Especially knowing the longevity it will give the device.

[@aljawad]

Here’s a quick thought: Apple announces & release the M4 iPad Pro in May, just a few weeks before WWDC when the first wave of betas for its upcoming AI-heavy operating systems are revealed and released. Now, the early M4 adopters running and testing iPadOS 18 (beta) on the new iPads will be a perfect consumer launchpad for the main hardware releases of iPhones and Macs coming in the fall, all running the promised AI features on the future OSs.
