The iPad Pro 2022 is a remarkable device and easily ranks as one of the best tablets you can buy right now. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or a loved one, with this device you’re getting truly unrivaled performance packaged within Apple’s trademark sleek design. In our iPad Pro 2022 review, we labeled the device “an all-around great tablet that delivers solid performance, a handy new Apple Pencil Hover feature and excellent video quality.” But we did note that it’s not a huge upgrade over its predecessor, so if you already own an M1-powered iPad you perhaps don’t need to splash out for an entirely new tablet. Of course, if you don’t already own an iPad, or have a 2020 or earlier model, then the iPad Pro 2022 is worth considering. The new M2 chip is the headline feature offering speedy performance even when performing multiple tasks. The latest iPad Pro is built for power-hungry tasks like gaming and video editing. In fact, we could barely get it to break a sweat during our testing. Battery life is another area where the iPad Pro 2022 excels. We managed to squeeze out 10 hours and 39 minutes out of the 12.9-inch model, and the results for this 11-inch model should be similar, if not even better. The tablet’s stunning XDR display shouldn’t be overlooked either, and neither should the convenient Apple Pencil Hover feature — although you will need to buy the stylus accessory separately, which can be a somewhat pricey investment.
