Apple’s new iPad Pro thinnest product ever
The new iPad Pro is the slimmest Apple product ever made with an amazingly thin and lightweight design that takes its portability to an entirely new level. Its 11-inch version measures just 5.3 mm in thickness, while the 13-inch model is even slimmer at a stunningly low 5.1 mm yet both of them are equally as durable as the previous designs before them. The 11-inch model weighs less than one pound, and it’s almost a quarter pound lighter than its predecessor which is great for professional users who can now extend their workflows in different ways and places. It comes in two beautiful finishes – silver and space black – both utilizing aluminum enclosures that are made from totally recycled materials.
The world’s most advanced display
Presenting Ultra Retina XDR, this device features the most sophisticated screen technology on Earth for providing a more amazing visual experience. The Ultra Retina XDR display uses revolutionary tandem OLED technology based on two OLED panels, combining light from both to give incredible full-screen brightness.
SDR and HDR contents can be viewed with a total full-screen brightness of 1000 nits by the new iPad Pro; reaching up to 1600 nits for peak brightness in HDR. No other product within this range could boast of such an extreme dynamic range. Tandem OLED technology further extends XDR accuracy through sub-millisecond control over the colour and luminance of each pixel. Specular highlights in photos and video appear even brighter, and there’s more detail in shadows and low light than ever before on iPad — all while delivering even more responsiveness to content in motion.
To cater for pro users who are into high-end workflows or work under challenging lighting conditions, the iPad Pro now includes a new nano-texture glass option for the first time. The glass is nano-textured to scatter ambient light that creates glare but it finely etched at nanometer scale thus it maintains picture quality and contrast. The world’s most advanced display, combined with its breakthrough tandem OLED technology, ultra-high brightness levels, extremely accurate contrast ratio, vibrant colours, and Nano-Texture Glass option make Ultra Retina XDR display fitted on the new iPad Pro an unmatched viewing experience for iPad Pro customers.
