The sixth-generation iPad Pro uses an Apple M2 SoC. It features an eight-core CPU with four performance cores and four efficiency cores, a 10-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine. Internal storage options include 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB and 2 TB.[2] The 128, 256, and 512 GB versions include 8 GB of RAM, while the 1 and 2 TB versions include 16 GB of RAM.[8]
The 11-inch model has a Liquid Retina display with a peak brightness of 600 nits, which is the same as the 11-inch model of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation iPad Pro 11”. The 12.9-inch model boasts a mini LED HDR display called the Liquid Retina XDR display built in with a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, a brightness of 1000 nits and a peak brightness of 1600 nits (HDR), which is the same as the 12.9-inch model of the 5th generation. Both models support True Tone, ProMotion, 120 Hz variable refresh rate, and P3 wide color gamut.[4][9]
The iPad Pro uses 100% recycled aluminum and sources at least 99% or rare earth elements from recycled sources. It is free of mercury, arsenic, brominated fire retardants, PVC, and beryllium.[10]
The sixth-generation iPad Pro supports the second-generation Apple Pencil, the Magic Keyboard, the Magic Trackpad, the Magic Mouse, Smart Keyboard Folio, and USB-C accessories.[11]
The position and angle of Pencil can now be detected up to 12 millimetres (0.47 in) above the screen. Apple refers to this new ability as "Pencil hover", which can be used by apps for features such as previewing brush and pen strokes, and with existing hover interactions intended for mouse / touchpad input.[12][13][14]
The sixth-generation iPad Pro received mixed responses from critics. Some reviewers criticized that the front-facing camera is in a less desirable landscape position while the 10th-generation iPad’s[9][15] is. Some reviewers praised the Apple Pencil hover, fast performance, battery life, and the display.[9][15]
