New iPad Pro DURABILITY TEST! Thinnest Apple Product EVER!
TLDRThis video puts the new iPad Pros to the test to determine their durability compared to the previous models. Despite being incredibly thin at 5.1 mm for the 13-inch model and 5.3 mm for the 11-inch, the new iPad Pros prove to be surprisingly strong. Apple has incorporated a central logic board with a new material acting like a spine, enhancing rigidity. The video demonstrates that both the new and old models can withstand mild pressure without issue. However, when subjected to more force, the older iPad Pro bends significantly, while the new models show only slight bending. Even under extreme bending, the new iPad Pros remain functional, with the 13-inch model showing remarkable durability. The OLED display on the new models is noted to be exceptionally durable, with less discoloration when cracked compared to the older models. The video concludes that the new iPad Pros are not as fragile as they seem and can withstand daily use without needing extra care.

📱 Durability Test of New iPad Pro Models
The video script discusses a durability test comparing the new iPad Pros with the older models. The new 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pros with M4 are noted for their thinness, with the 11-inch being 5.3 mm and the 13-inch being a record 5.1 mm thin. Despite the thinness, Apple has incorporated a central logic board with a new material acting as a spine, which adds rigidity to the device. The test involves applying mild pressure, then increasing the force to check for bending, with a focus on the screen as a weak point. The old iPad Pro shows significant bending and creaking under pressure, while the new model exhibits a subtle bend but remains functional. The video concludes that the new iPad Pro is surprisingly strong for its thinness.
🔍 Bending Tests and Display Durability
The script continues with further bending tests on both old and new 13-inch iPad Pro models. The older model shows a significant change and weakness near the camera, while the new model, despite its thinness, appears to be stronger. The presenter exerts maximum force, revealing only a slight bend in the new model, suggesting it may be both thinner and stronger. The video demonstrates that both models can still function despite the bending. The presenter also notes that the new iPad Pro's OLED display is more durable than the old models, with less discoloration around cracks. The video concludes that the new iPad Pro is remarkably durable and holds up well under intense bending tests.
👍 Real-World Durability and OLED Display Strength
The final paragraph summarizes the findings of the video. The new iPad Pro's central logic board 'spine' is effective in maintaining the device's rigidity, making it not a durability risk despite its thinness. The OLED display on the new iPad Pro is highlighted as being exceptionally durable, with better performance in the event of damage compared to older models. The video emphasizes that every display on the tested iPad Pros remained functional even after bending and stress tests. The presenter advises viewers that the new iPad Pro does not need to be handled with excessive care and praises its build quality and durability. The video ends with the presenter's anticipation of sharing further thoughts on the iPad Pro's keyboard and Apple Pencil experience.
