iPad has been always the best selling tablets. This year it's no brainer. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was no special event for iPad but was launched silently on Apple.com. iPad has always been seen as a replacement for the computer but apple wants to set it apart.
They don't want to destroy the mac but they want the iPad to be a computer alternative. That's why this year's iPad slogan is - "Your next computer is not a computer".
The new 2020 iPad features a dual pro camera setup, 120hz pro sense display, A12Z Bionic Processor with 8 core graphics performance. This makes it more powerful than your basic desktop and laptops.
LiDAR Sensor
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is used to measure distance by measuring how long it takes light to penetrate an object and reflect back. It's so sophisticated that it's being used by NASA for the next Mars exploration mission. It's now designed to fit into the thin and light iPad Pro.
120Hz ProMotion Display
The edge-to-edge Liquid Retina display is not only beautiful and immersive but also features amazingly advanced technologies. Like Advertising, True Tone and industry-leading color accuracy, it makes everything look sensitive and breathtaking. Simply put, this combination of features makes it the world's most advanced smartphone display.
Dual Camera with 4K Video Recording Support
The pro camera system makes iPad Pro incredibly versatile. Shoot, edit and share a 4K video, all on the same device. Capture an entire room in one shot with the Ultra-Wide camera and use Markup to redesign it on the spot. Or scan a document, sign or mark it up with Apple Pencil, then send back your notes with a tap.
A12Z Bionic Processor
With the A12Z Bionic chip, iPad Pro is so powerful it beats most of today's available PC laptops. From your daily tasks to graphics-intensive workflows, it makes everything you do quick and fluidly. And for the apps and games where it matters most, the 8-core graphics processor means even more performance and realism.
The Trackpad On Magic Keyboard ⌨️
