The upcoming M5 iPad Pro is set to elevate Apple’s tablet game this year. While the dimensions of the 11-inch and 13-inch models will remain as they are, the big news is under the hood with a new M5 chip. This upgraded chipset promises enhanced performance, but that’s not all—Apple is also addressing a notable user concern by adding a second front-facing camera.
Currently, the M4 iPad Pro boasts impressive design features like the slimmest chassis and advanced tandem OLED technology. However, the placement of the front-facing camera on the landscape side has been less than ideal for taking selfies or video calls in portrait mode. The new M5 models will tackle this issue by introducing an additional camera on the portrait side, offering greater flexibility for users who frequently use FaceTime or capture selfies.
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman highlights this change as a way for Apple to enhance user experience without revolutionary redesigns. The M5 chip, expected to use TSMC’s advanced 3nm process, promises to deliver even more power and efficiency.
As anticipation builds for the M5 iPad Pro launch, there’s still an opportunity to snap up the current M4 models at significant discounts. Prices for the 11-inch version start at $899, and you can save up to $300 on higher storage models. Whether you opt for a bargain now or choose to wait for the latest features, Apple’s iPad Pro lineup caters to a wide range of needs and preferences.
