On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.

    I see a lot of “Apple says” here. I’ll believe it when I see it. And not on their shitty graphs with no numbers and comparing it to 4 year old processors.

    Curious who uses this for pro means. With FCP, Logic, Resolve on there now, who would choose an iPad for these?

    Great way for a kid to start learning them, I imagine, but I would wager a guess that most pro peeps are using it for illustration and art.

      Accidentally replied in the wrong spot.

      I posted more because I’m happy about the chip performance gains. That it’s in an iPad is interesting, but I’m excited for the Mac.

      Right, like they don’t really have many AAA, the main thing holding this back is firmly the OS. I just truly don’t get it

        It’s the same reason Macs don’t have touchscreens. If they can both do the same tasks, why would you buy both? And LOTS of people buy both.
