Apple’s flagship tablets have been inching closer to laptop-level performance, and the tech giant’s latest update aims to designate the iPad Pro as a portable production studio. Announced on October 15, Apple says the iPad Pro M5 is for “creative projects of any size” with faster performance and more multitasking capabilities.
The headlining feature on the 2025 update to the iPad Pro series is the new M5 chip, which Apple also integrated into the new MacBook Pro M5. iPadOS 26 is also behind a number of updates, while specs for the tablet's cameras and screen remain similar to the predecessor.
