iPad Pro M4 has just been launched with outstanding performance, opening a new AI era for tablets.
Apple recently officially launched the new iPad Pro and iPad Air models, confirming all the rumors in recent months. Even the "last minute" information that the iPad Pro OLED will use the M4 chip instead of the M3 as expected has come true.
The reason Apple chose the M4 chip for this year's tablet products may be related to artificial intelligence (AI), as the company prepares to launch new generation AI features in iOS 18 and iPadOS 18.
How powerful is the iPad Pro M4?
iPad Pro M4 has a CPU that is 1.5 times faster than M2 on iPad Pro 2022, providing impressive processing speed for all tasks, from video editing, heavy graphics to gaming. The improved GPU with ray-tracing support promises a more realistic and smoother graphics experience.
The next bright spot is the outstanding energy efficiency of the M4. This new chip can provide performance equivalent to M2 but only uses half the power, helping to significantly extend battery life and reduce temperatures during use.
The power of the new M4 chip.
Compared to conventional PC chips, the M4 chip delivers comparable performance using only a quarter of the power, confirming Apple's performance-per-watt leadership.
The AI power of M4 is demonstrated through a powerful 16-core Neural Engine, providing 25% faster AI processing performance than M2. Thanks to that, iPad Pro M4 can handle complex AI tasks such as image recognition, language translation, and virtual reality smoothly and effectively. This is the foundation for the new generation AI features that Apple plans to launch in iOS 18 and iPadOS 18.

GPU performance does not have a strong breakthrough, but the iPad Pro M4 still outperforms the iPad Pro M2 by a large gap.
Finally, there is another test result of the Neural Engine with 16 cores in the M4 chip. This is a highlight of the new processor, something Apple emphasized during the event because it will play an important role in AI performance. reproduce, M4 achieved 9234 points in the test, while M2 achieved 7351 points.
