10th generation iPad and iPad Pro, the M2 chip has officially started to be sold Team iPhone-Droid.net I also have a machine to review Today we do not miss the opportunity to unpack the preview box for you to review as usual. after we arrivedUnboxing for 10th generation iPad Left. Today is the queue of the big brother, iPad Pro, M2 chip. Many people see it from the news of the launch and feel that it is not very different from the previous model. Is it really different from the original?!? Today, let’s take a look at the complete design of the device, ready to follow!
Unboxing iPad Pro 12.9 ″ M2 chip
For the iPad Pro, the M2 chip we got as a 12.9-inch model, the box is as big as it looks. The front of the box will show an image of the front design with a new background as usual. The color we got is Space Gray, so the background is purple like this.
The iPad Pro M2 box will not have a plastic cover this time around. There are only stickers to tear like the new iPhones.
Open the box, we will also find the iPad Pro M2 in the envelope. The screen size of 12.9 “is full of boxes. It can be used at one time.
Next, you will find both accessories. Comes with a box of manuals with two Apple stickers and a 20W charger adapter and a USB-C to C charging cable.
That the charging cable in this round has changed to a new type of braided cable, similar to that of MacBook Air, M2 chip or MacBook Pro 14 “and 16”, looks more luxurious
In total, there are 5 devices in the iPad Pro M2 package as follows.
- IPad Pro 12.9 ″ body, M2 chip
- Documentation
- 20W charger adapter
- USB-C to C charging cable
- Apple sticker
Looks the same, really ?!
Time to take a closer look at the iPad Pro M2 from the official information or photos. We can hardly find the difference between the screens of the iPad Pro M1 and the iPad Pro M2. The front design of the iPad Pro M2 is no different from the original, really the same in all respects.
Large 12.9 inch MiniLED screen
But the same thing is that it comes with the same Liquid Retina XDR display technology as the same MiniLED panel, has high contrast, and displays deep blacks. Here we like it.In addition, on a 12.9-inch screen size, it can still show its fullness as before, really.
And of course, the iPad Pro M2’s screen also supports ProMotion with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, providing very smooth usage.
The position of the front camera is the same at the top.
On the iPad Pro M2, the front camera with the Face ID sensor is still positioned at the top. Here we are a little offended because on the 10th generation iPad it was moved to the horizontal position, but on the Pro version it is still positioned vertically as before. Use FaceTime or VDO calls, you may not have any eye problems. Look in the middle as usual
Space Gray color, new tone, lighter than before
Go back and look at the back of the car. The back cover also uses the same matte aluminum material. It gives a soft touch even when you hold it. Giving outside, including carrying and using it, is no secretly different from before
But .. if you really look at the details, you will find that the space gray color secretly feels that the gray in this round is fainter than before, very close to silver, unlike the previous version which is sharper than it looks. This is probably one of the differences between the M2 and M1 models.
The rear camera also comes as a 12MP + 10MP (Wide + Ultra Wide) dual camera with LiDAR scanner as before, nothing has changed here.
On the side of the car, the bottom corner will have the iPad logo that this round added that entered “Pro”, as a clearer separation of the models. And this is like another point of difference between the iPad Pro M2 and M1. The bottom of the logo is a 3 PIN Smart Connector channel as usual.
around the machine of the square design original position
Around the car still uses the same square design. At the top there is a power button and on the right side there is a button to raise and lower the volume.
And just below the volume up and down button we will find a bar connected to the 2nd generation Apple Pencil, to which we can insert a paste to connect or load from here as usual.
Thunderbolt port with 4 stereo speakers
The connection port of the iPad Pro M2 is also positioned at the bottom as a port. Thunderbolt / USB 4 with a maximum speed of 40Gb / s, and there are also 4 speakers compatible with the above for total stereo sound.
Overall, in design, if you say it’s the same, it wouldn’t be a big mistake. Because there are small details like the lighter color of Space Gray and the rear logo of the iPad that only adds Pro lettering. Other than that, if you didn’t go that deep, you wouldn’t feel the difference. Anyone expecting the arrival of a completely new design You must express your condolences.
All original accessories are available.
And with almost all the same design Of course, all the original accessories can be used, from the Magic Keyboard, the mobile keyboard case that anyone has and can continue to use.
Including the second generation Apple Pencil, it can be attached to the side of the device to connect as usual. There is no need to find any adapter to convert, which on the iPad Pro M2 has features like Pencil Hover, where we simply point the pencil head (not touched) close, there will be a preview even before touching, like us Bring it to the app icon, it will stand out. Or see the position of the pen before writing, etc.
New M2 chip, the highlight is here!
The exterior, although very different from its predecessor. But inside there is a huge update with the same M2 chip as the new MacBook Air with 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU and 16-core NPU. Here, Apple claims that the CPU is 15% faster, the GPU it is 35% faster and neural. The engine (AI) also works 40% better.
