Naya iPad Pro range ek mahatvapurna pal ko darshaata hai, kyun ki yeh pehli baar hai ki kisi iPad ne agle peedhi ke Apple Silicon, M4, ka aghaz kiya hai.
Apple ke CEO Tim Cook ne naye iPad Pro range ko iPad ke itihaas ka sabse bada din bataya. Thoda intezaar toh tha. Pichhle kuch saalon mein iPad Pro aur iPad Air lines ko kai baar update kiya gaya tha, alag-alag samay par. Lekin, Apple ne poora samay bhar ka badlaav laakar dikhaya hai, poori iPad range mein bade updates kiye hain. Itna hi nahi, naye iPad Pro range ne Apple Silicon ka agla peedhi, M4, ko pehli baar introduce kiya hai. Apple Pencil ko bhi ‘Pro’ naam mila hai saath mein smart features ke saath. iPad Air ab do screen sizes mein uplabdh hai, ek aur MacBook ya laptop ke badle. Ek naya Magic Keyboard bhi hai. Aur entry-level iPad ka price tweak hua hai.
Umeed thi ki Apple iPad Pro display ko OLED mein upgrade karega, aur yeh ho gaya. Apple ise ‘state-of-the-art tandem OLED technology’ kehte hain. Unka kehna hai ki ek iPad Pro ka display size (khaaskar bada 13-inch wala) ek OLED panel ko itni roshni nahi deta tha jitni ki ummeed ki ja rahi thi. Isliye, tandem – ek screen banane ke liye do OLED panels ka istemaal kiya gaya hai. Apple keh rahe hain ki yeh sub-millisecond control provide karega har pixel ke rang aur chamak par, aur nano-texture coating ka chayan (abhi sirf 1TB aur 2TB ke vikalpon mein uplabdh hai) karne se precision driven creator workflows mein madad milegi.
Yeh 5.3mm motaai ke 11-inch aur 5.1mm motaai ke 13-inch models, sabse patle Apple products hain, pichhle iPod Nano se bhi patle.
iPad Pro ke liye doosra bada update M4 ka prastav hai. Yeh na to iMac hai, na hi MacBook. Balki ek iPad ko Apple ke apne silicon yatra ke chaubeesve chapter ko laya gaya hai. Ismein chaar performance cores aur chhe efficiency cores, saath hi machine learning accelerators hain, jo puraane iPad Pro line-up ke M2 chip ke mukaable 1.5x tez performance pradaan karte hain. Iske alawa, Macs par pehli baar uplabdh hai 10-core GPU, Dynamic Caching aur hardware-accelerated mesh shading aur ray tracing.
Naye iPad Pros, jismein power, display generation leaps aur design improvements hain (ek naye charging mechanism ke saath Apple Pencil aur FaceTime camera ki sthiti badli gayi hai), ek achhi rakam mein aati hain. 11-inch iPad Pro ka price ₹99,900 se shuru hota hai, jabki 13-inch iPad Pro ka price ₹1,29,900 se shuru hota hai. Base storage 256GB hai, aur vikalp hain 512GB, 1TB aur 2TB ke liye. Reduced reflectivity ke liye nano-texture glass coating ka chayan karte samay price tags mein ₹10,000 jodna hota hai.
Yeh accha samay hai M4 chip ko vistar se samjhaane ka, jo ham is varsh Macs mein bhi dekhege. Dusre highlights mein shamil hain sabse shaktishaali Neural Engine jo kabhi Apple device mein tha, 38 trillion operations per second ke saath – yeh pehle ke A11 Bionic chip ke Neural Engine ke mukaable 60x tez hai. Apple isse koi shabd nahi kate hain, “Is advanced level of performance ke saath, M4 ke Neural Engine ki koi bhi neural processing unit, aaj ke kisi bhi AI PC mein se zyada taqatwar hai.” Yeh, jab Intel, AMD, Qualcomm aur Windows PC ecosystem AI PCs ke liye case banane ki koshish kar rahe the. Yeh ummeed hai ki Apple agli mahine aane waale Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) mein iOS, iPadOS aur macOS ke liye apne artificial intelligence (AI) integration plans ko vistaar se bataega.
iPad Air ka refresh screen size choice ko widen karta hai, aur isliye alag alag use-cases ke liye potential banata hai. 11-inch option ab ek 13-inch iPad Air ke saath jud gayi hai, jo ki naye Magic Keyboard ke saath ek MacBook ya laptop ka sthaan lena sambhav banata hai. Jaise hi display size chune, M2 chip ab uska beating heart hai. Humne Mac line-up mein iska karyabhar dekha hai, aur yeh bas iPad Air ki versatility ko aur bhi majboot banata hai. Apple ke mutabiq, yeh pehle se 50% tez hai pichhle generation iPad Air ke mukaable, jismein M1 tha. Woh bhi kuch khaas nahi tha. Apple tasdeek karta hai ki 11-inch iPad Air ka price ₹59,900 se shuru hota hai, jabki 13-inch iPad Air ka price ₹79,900 se shuru hota hai. Storage choices 128GB, 256GB, 512GB aur 1TB hain, saath hi Wi-Fi ya Wi-Fi aur Cellular connectivity options bhi hain.
Apple Pencil Pro Apple Pencil (2nd generation) aur Apple Pencil (USB-C) ke saath teesra vikalp hai kharidne ke liye. Ismein sabse adhik features hain, jaise barrel roll aur squeeze gestures, haptic feedback aur Apple ke Find My network se integration, jiska price ₹11,900 hai, aur yeh doosre generation ke Pencil ke saare functionality ke saath hai.
Agar kisi ko keyboard ke saath iPad ka upayog karna ho, toh Apple ne Magic Keyboard ko bhi update kiya hai. Yeh ab naye iPad Pro ke profile ke saath milta hai, aur reworked keys aur aluminium touchpad hai, jise ek MacBook par aap familiar hote hue dekh sakte hain. Naye iPad Pro ke price mein shaamil hone par, yeh ek bhaari kimat ka samarthan rakhta hai – ₹29,900 ke liye 11-inch aur ₹33,900 ke liye 13-inch.”
