What customers say
The 13-inch iPad Pro with the M5 chip earns widespread praise for its revolutionary performance, effortlessly managing demanding tasks like 4K editing. Users admire the engineering marvel of the thin design and expansive display. The Nano-Texture glass is highly valued by creatives for its superior anti-glare properties and excellent Apple Pencil feel, mimicking drawing on paper.

Ultimately, this is considered the best tablet available, best suited for dedicated professionals who utilize its specialized capabilities.
Know before you buy
The Nano-Texture glass is specifically engineered to scatter ambient light, which significantly reduces glare and reflections. It is an ideal choice for professionals working in bright environments or under harsh studio lighting who need to maintain color accuracy and visibility.
The M5 chip provides desktop-class processing power, allowing the iPad Pro to handle intensive tasks like 4K video editing, 3D rendering, and complex multitasking with ease. It ensures the device remains responsive even when running demanding creative or professional applications.
At 579 grams and just 5.3 mm thin, the device is remarkably portable for its size. However, due to the expansive 13-inch screen, it is best used with a stand, Magic Keyboard, or while resting on a surface for long-duration tasks.
This model is designed to work specifically with the Apple Pencil Pro and the latest Magic Keyboard. It is recommended to verify compatibility with older generation accessories, as the physical dimensions and magnetic attachment points may differ from previous iPad Pro models.
This model features fast Wi-Fi 6E for high-speed wireless networking and includes 5G cellular support for staying connected on the go. It requires a physical SIM card to utilize cellular data services.
The 120Hz refresh rate, often referred to as ProMotion, makes scrolling, animations, and stylus input feel incredibly fluid and responsive. It significantly reduces latency when drawing or writing, providing a more natural, paper-like feel.
