iPad vs. iPad Pro : Model differences
Performance
The iPad Pro surpasses the standard iPad in terms of performance. The M1 and M2 chips in the Pro models deliver desktop performance for demanding tasks such as video editing, 3D rendering and multitasking with complex applications. That said, the A13 Bionic chip in the standard iPad is more than sufficient for everyday activities and is perfectly suited to everyday use, but it doesn’t match the performance of the iPad Pro.
Display
The iPad Pro screen offers optimum brightness, excellent contrast and color accuracy, making it perfect for creative work and media consumption. The standard iPad screen is excellent for general use, but lacks the advanced features of the Pro screen.
Storage and capacity
If storage is important to you, iPad Pro models offer plenty of space for large files and extensive application libraries, with up to 2TB. The standard iPad’s maximum storage capacity of 256 GB may prove restrictive for users who collect a lot of media or have large project files.
Camera and connectivity
The iPad Pro’s advanced camera system, including LiDAR scanner, is ideal for augmented reality (AR) applications, professional photography and videography. The camera configuration of the standard iPad is satisfactory for video calls and everyday photos, but is not designed for professional use.
Accessories
Both iPads support the Apple Pencil, but the iPad Pro is compatible with the second-generation Apple Pencil, which offers a more refined experience thanks to magnetic attachment and wireless charging. In addition, the iPad Pro supports the Magic Keyboard, which transforms it into a powerful alternative to laptops.
Which iPad to buy in 2024?
The choice between iPad and iPad Pro ultimately depends on your specific needs and budget:
- For occasional users : The standard iPad is an excellent choice. It’s more affordable, more powerful and perfect for everyday tasks such as browsing, streaming and light productivity.
- For professionals and creatives: The iPad Pro is the right choice. Its superior performance, screen and accessory support make it ideal for demanding work, creative projects and intensive multitasking.
