The new model retains the signature footprint of its predecessor while expanding its screen real estate. By slimming down the bezels, Apple has fitted an 8.5-inch OLED display into the same chassis size, achieving a peak brightness of 1,200 nits—more than double that of the previous generation. Beyond the visual upgrade, the device gains a notable power boost, moving from the A17 Pro to the A20 Pro chip, addressing performance critiques directed at earlier versions.
Base pricing begins at $699 for the 128GB configuration, with tiered storage options extending to 512GB. Users prioritizing display clarity can opt for the nano-texture glass variant, which starts at $899 for the 256GB model. The hardware package is rounded out by a 12MP center camera and added resistance to water and dust, positioning the tablet as a durable choice for holiday travel and mobile productivity.
