After years without a new iPad, Apple certainly put on a "Let Loose" show by unveiling two new Pros and two new Airs with updated Pen and Magic keyboards.
Apple released new iPads for the first time since 2022. During its virtual "Let Loose" event, the company launched new iPads: two iPad Airs and two iPad Pros, both 11-inch and 13-inch. Some notable updates include FaceTime cameras that move from the short edge to the long edge — finally! -- and new Ultra Retina XDR OLED displays for professionals that can reach 1,600 nits of peak brightness in HDR (and 1,000 nits in full-screen SDR), as well as a desktop Pro XDR display.

The relocated FaceTime camera on the long edge means calls are no longer confusing from the side, and Face ID positioning is more natural Until now, the 10th generation iPad was the only one with this arrangement.The redesigned Pros are now slimmer, although thanks to the long-awaited OLED screens, they are similar in size to the 11- and 13-inchers.
To create the extra brightness - a peak brightness of 1,600 nits in HDR - they combine two OLED panels called Tandem OLED, which Apple calls Ultra Retina XDR. As with desktop displays, there's an option for Nano Texture, which is Apple's anti-glare layer. They start at $999 (£999, AU$1,699) for the 11-inch model and $1,399 (£1,299, AU$2,199) for the 13-inch model.The M4 chip will launch with the Pro, bypassing the M3, although it only looks that way. a faster version that includes new display technology designed to power the new OLED displays. Otherwise, it uses 3-nanometer technology of M3 generation with four performance cores, six efficient cores, 10 GPU cores, and a new graphics card that supports HDR OLED display. And it has better temperatures to compensate.

They have been redesigned as 11-inch and a new 13-inch, although with older Liquid Retina technology than the professional mini LED. The 11 has horizontal speakers with surround sound, while the 13-inch has extra bass. Both have the M2 chip and the new blue and purple colors join it.
