And, best of all, unlike competing technologies, it doesn't force a digitizer beneath the display. The iPad Pro's multitouch display system can also measure the relative position of the sensors in the Apple Pencil, so it can tell when the Pencil is tilted. But what Apple has implemented instead is fascinating.Īpple Pencil with iPad drawing (Image credit: iMore)Īlong with the refresh rate, the iPad Pro display scans for the optional Apple Pencil 240 times per second as well, effectively doubling "sensitivity". Whether or not Apple could implement 3D Touch in the same way on the iPad Pro, and whether or not it would be compatible with what else they're doing, and with their weight goals for the device, I don't know. It's a different technology than what's used to enable force touch on the Apple Watch or the Mac trackpad because the iPhone has a different screen size and interactivity requirement. That's the name Apple gives to the system that measures the microscopic change in distance between the glass and LED lights on the iPhones 6s to enable the pressure-sensitive Home screen options and "peek and pop" features. That's how Apple manages to retain the iPad's traditionally great battery life even when lighting up all those pro pixels. So, when nothing much is happening on the screen, the iPad Pro can cycle down from 60 Hz to 30 Hz. (It's technically not the same as frame rate, because refresh rate can contain the same frame rendered multiple times.) The refresh rate measures how many times per second the screen draws the pixel data it's being fed. The oxide TFT also enables something remarkable-variable refresh rate. It allows for faster and more uniform pixel changing, even across the very large display. Still, it looks great for photos, videos, games, and everything else I've thrown at it.Īlso like the Retina iMac, the iPad Pro has an oxide thin film transistor (TFT). To my eyes, the reds and magentas aren't as saturated as on my iPad Air 2, and technologically the iPad Pro doesn't have a DCI-P3 color space that the latest iMacs enjoy.

It's only when you get to the 21.5-inch Retina 4K's 9,437,184 pixels that you find more. It also beats the 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro's 5,184,000 pixels. That beats the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 4's 3,145,728 pixels and the iPhone 6s Plus' 2,073,600 (physical) pixels. While the iPad Pro display may not be as dense as the iPad mini 4 and iPhone 6s, much less the 401 ppi of the iPhone 6s Plus, neither can touch it when it comes to pixel quantity. That compares to 9.7-inches on the iPad Air 2 and 7.9-inches on the iPad mini 4, both with 2048x1536 pixels, the former at the same 264 ppi, and the latter at an iPhone 6s-equalling 326 ppi.

So, if you need a laptop, you'll want to stick with a laptop. But it's also a first step and one that needs the software to catch up to the hardware. It's a bigger, more powerful, more productive display, with an optional, amazingly creative Pencil. The iPad Pro is the next step in Apple's tablet evolution. So, how close does the iPad Pro come to achieving that vision? For people who want: ![]()
