There are two color options that perfectly complement the latest iPad Pro. Notable enhancements consist of a feature column with screen brightness controls, an aluminum palm rest, and an extended trackpad with haptic feedback.
Apple says the trackpad provides the same convenience as a MacBook.
The all-new Magic Keyboard is available for pre-order now and will be available starting next week. The 11-inch version costs $299 and the 13-inch version costs $349.
Apple also announced the latest iPad Pro models with the M4 chip, Ultra Retina XDR OLED display, nanotexture display option, and various enhancements. The latest version of the iPad Pro features a noticeably thinner design and larger screen sizes of 11 and 13 inches.
The 11-inch version of the iPad Pro boasts a slim profile at just 5.3 mm thick. However, the 13-inch model goes a step further with an even thinner design at 5.1mm thick. Apple proudly claims that this makes the new iPad Pro its thinnest product ever. Specifically, it features graphite sheets for the main housing, copper for the Apple logo, and improved thermal design.
iPad Pro’s Ultra Retina XDR OLED display utilizes a dual-panel setup to deliver an incredibly bright full-screen experience. It can deliver up to 1,000 nits of brightness for both SDR and HDR content, with a peak brightness of 1,600 nits for HDR. This results in deeper blacks, enhanced shadows and low-light detail, brighter highlights, improved brightness, and a more responsive display to moving content.
