High quality screen suitable for the toughest tasks

  • Bright and large 12.9 inch Liquid Retina XDR screen
  • Lightning fast on the toughest tasks, such as 3D games
  • Selfie camera that you always put in the middle during video calls
  • 16 GB of RAM only with the 1 and 2 TB variant
Thanks to the M1 chip, iPad Pro (2021) 12.9 inches is the most powerful tablet at the moment. Heavy photo and video editing apps and heavy 3D games open quickly and run smoothly. Thanks to the Liquid Retina XDR screen, I can watch movies and series in the highest quality. Powerful and lightning-fast Apple M1 chip This iPad Pro is the first iPad with the Apple M1 chip. This chip is also included in MacBook Pro (2020). The A12Z chip in the iPad Pro (2020) was soon available, but with the M1 chip, Apple is taking it one step further. Heavy Adobe apps open at lightning speed and run smoothly. I also switch effortlessly between these apps. The same goes for a 3D game like 'Sky - Children of the Light'. Bright and razor-sharp 12.9-inch screen The 12.9-inch version has a Liquid Retina XDR screen. The difference with the Liquid Retina screen of the 11-inch version is the mini LED technology used. Thanks to this application, the screen is brighter, I see more contrast and black images are really black. I especially notice this when I watch movies and series via, for example, Netflix in Dolby Vision or HDR10. Thanks to the ProMotion technology, the screen refreshes 120 times per second. Thus, the display of animations is smooth. Almost the same design as iPad Pro (2020) iPad Pro (2021) has the same matte finished sides and back as iPad Pro (2018/2020) and iPad Air (2020). In terms of dimensions, the length and width are also the same as its predecessor. The tablet has become 0.5 mm thicker. This really only matters if you have Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro (2020). This 2020 version of Magic Keyboard cover will not close completely when used with the 2021 version. New TrueDepth selfie camera On the back is the camera island with a standard and wide-angle lens and the LiDAR scanner. I take good pictures with it in a bright environment. The LiDAR scanner is useful for AR applications, for example if you want to see how a kitchen looks in your house. The TrueDepth selfie camera on the front has a wide-angle lens. I don't notice it in normal use. But during video calls I see that the camera is following me. This keeps me in the picture, even if I stand up or move from left to right. Get more out of iPad Pro with accessories Typing emails and documents is a lot more comfortable with Magic Keyboard. I only have to click this keyboard on the back. That way I can get started right away. And thanks to the trackpad, I don't necessarily need a mouse. Another handy accessory is Apple Pencil 2. With this stylus, I can easily take notes and sketch. In apps from Adobe, for example, I simply switch tools by tapping the stylus twice.

A great device with too much power

  • Beautiful screen with 120Hz
  • Very good speakers and microphone
  • Front-facing camera with Center-Stage
  • Only lasts all day with intensive use
A tablet that is so good that it will be very difficult for other brands to top it. Great performance, fast storage and lots of RAM, very nice screen with well calibrated colors, and it is also a good experience for watching media content and having video calls. The only things holding this device back are the battery - which runs out quickly with the 120Hz screen - and its own software; I really hope that in the future more will be possible with the power of the M1 chip. I've only had this tablet for a few days now. Before this, I should have tried the iPad Air 2020 for a while, and I have to say that the iPad Air 2020 is a better choice for most people if you are not a 'pro' who will use the iPad for his or her work, and even then the iPad Air 2020 will be more than enough as a secondary device. Still, the iPad Pro 11” 2021 is an upgrade in most areas, no matter how small. The sound, microphone, USB-c port, screen brightness and refresh rate, working memory, processing cores, cameras on both sides ... it's all just a tad better if you are really looking for the latest of the latest, while you also do nothing at all with the iPad Air falls short. Pros and cons explained: +120Hz feels great to have; you won't want to go back soon + The speakers and microphone are better than the iPad Air and regular iPad, but not better than the iPad Pro 2020 + Center-Stage is very nice to have for video calls, but don't buy the iPad just for this feature + The M1 is powerful… Too powerful, since the iPad Pro 2021 can't take full advantage of it. I hope there will be a software update that will allow you to do even more with the iPad + 8GB of RAM ensures that background apps are always ready for you all day without reloading - If you plan to use your iPad Pro throughout the day, have a charger with you to charge it at the end of the work day - Apple pencil and Magic Keyboard are fantastic accessories. I recommend the pencil to everyone, but the keyboard only to those who will use it intensively. Too bad that at least the pencil is not included… - The Mini-LED screen on the larger version is even better, but also extremely expensive. - This may be the best tablet on the market, but it's also the most expensive, especially if you upgrade the model with extra storage or 5G capability. Tip: don't take 5G, but use your phone as a personal hotspot if you need mobile internet on your iPad. Now I can hear you asking: is the bigger screen worth it? The iPad Pro 12.9 inch 2021 has a brighter screen with local dimming zones, so HDR content will look great. Personally, I think the price difference between the 11” and 12.9” is too big to make it worth it. I also find it much nicer to have a more handy device with the 11” version, since 12.9” is very large for a tablet. In terms of accessories: the apple pencil is almost indispensable for me and a purchase that I recommend to almost everyone who wants to do more with his/her tablet than just watch videos and scroll social media. Despite its price, I also recommend the magic keyboard case, even for the 11” version I have. I was worried that the keys would be smaller on the 11” version, but this isn't the case. There are only some keys that have been made narrower to fit. It's a joy to type on when you see yourself as a power user who will use the iPad for writing.

Great tablet held back by the OS

  • Handy size
  • good camera
  • the operating system
What an upgrade to go from the 2017 iPad Pro 12.9” to the iPad Pro 12.9” 2021. Not a bulky big thing anymore, but much more manageable. The M1 is a big improvement, more memory gives me more room for complex artworks. Loading large files is twice as fast and no more stuttering with large brushes. The screen, sound and camera are much better. USB Thunderbolt will, as long as iPadOS doesn't let you do much with files, it's kind of useless. At the time of writing, the M1 is clearly not unlocked yet. Apps don't use all the memory in M1 (that's a real shame if you have 16Gb, but also a shame about the 8Gb if only 5Gb is used due to limits set by Apple). The 2020 iPad Pro easily keeps up with the M1, it shouldn't be. Fortunately, the difference with my 2017 model is significant, but the feeling that Apple makes me pay a lot of money for something that you can't fully enjoy is really bummed at the moment. Hopefully that will change in the near future. The best thing about the iPad Pro 2021 is actually not the iPad itself, even if it's great, but the Apple Pencil 2. What an improvement compared to the first. All in all, a good upgrade, but just not "you like it" due to the current iPadOS restrictions. A great tablet that is held back and opposed by the operating system.
