Apple M4 debuted at the company’s May iPad event and will be introduced in the iPad Pro this month, putting a more powerful processor in the company’s pro tablet than it has in its best-selling MacBook Air.
The M4 chip is built on a ‘second-generation’ 3nm process, which the company says provides the same performance as the Apple M3 with greatly improved efficiency, offering the iPad Pro desktop-like performance in a tablet without tanking its battery life.
On the spec side, the M4 chip brings to the iPad Pro the same kind of advances that the Apple M3 brought to MacBooks and the iMac last year, including mesh shading, hardware ray tracing, and dynamic caching. It includes a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, and Apple says that its CPU is 50% faster than the M2, and its GPU is 400% faster than the M2.
