It's this incredible versatility that defines iPad.
And today, we have some huge updates across the iPad lineup.
So here's John to tell you more.
βͺ βͺ
βͺ βͺ
John Ternus: Let's kick things off with iPad Air.
iPad Air is designed to deliver advanced features pioneered on iPad Pro,
and make them available at an even more affordable price.
That's why a wide range of users rely on it to do so many different things.
Like college students, who use Goodnotes and Apple Pencil
from the classroom to the dorm room.
Entrepreneurs who use QuickBooks for their small business
while on the go using 5G.
Creators that rely on the performance of iPad Air and iMovie

The combination of a high-resolution display,
the phenomenal performance of Apple silicon,
and its colorful, portable design
with support for amazing accessories
makes iPad Air so versatile for so many.
Well today, we're excited to give all these users
even more of what they love with a new iPad Air.
And here it is.
βͺ βͺ
βͺ βͺ
For the first time ever, iPad Air comes in two sizes:
a redesigned 11-inch Air,
and a spectacular, all-new 13-inch Air.
And here's Melody to tell you more.
Melody Kuna: I'm thrilled to tell you all about the new iPad Air.
Let's start with its brilliant Liquid Retina display.
Users love the portability of the 11-inch form factor,
which is perfect for tasks like jotting down notes
while working on a project.
Some Air users would prefer an even larger display
for more room to work, learn, and play.
So inspired by iPad Pro, where about half the users choose a larger screen,
we created a 13-inch model of the new iPad Air as well.
The 13-inch Air has 30% more screen real estate
than the 11-inch Air.
The larger display gives users more space to express their ideas
in apps like Freeform,
or to see more participants in a video call on Zoom.
It also provides more space to view multiple apps using Split View in iPadOS.
And both displays have the same advanced features.
So all your content looks absolutely gorgeous.
We've also redesigned the iPad Air to put the front-facing camera
on the landscape edge.
And it features Center Stage, which uses machine learning
to automatically keep everyone in the field of view.
So it's perfect for connecting with friends and family over FaceTime
or joining a video conference while using a keyboard.
The new Air features landscape stereo speakers with Spatial Audio,
so it sounds great.
βͺ βͺ
And the 13-inch model has even better sound quality with double the bass.
The new Air comes in four finishes:
a new Blue and a new Purple,
as well as a beautiful Starlight and Space Gray.
And its durable design uses a 100% recycled aluminum enclosure.
Air users also love how quickly they can get things done.
So we're stepping up performance in a big way
with the incredibly fast M2!
M2 is a powerful chip that's improved in a number of ways over M1.
It has a faster CPU, faster GPU,
and much faster Neural Engine.
And when combined with faster memory bandwidth,
the new Air is nearly 50% faster than the previous Air with M1
for all types of productive and creative tasks.
And compared to iPad Air with A14 Bionic,
the new Air provides up to an enormous
three times faster performance.
So users can create faster than ever
in Affinity Designer 2 to promote their business,
and play graphically intensive games like the upcoming "Zenless Zone Zero,"
or the visually stunning "Assassin's Creed Mirage."
With M2, the new Air is also an incredibly powerful device for AI.
It's blazing fast for powerful machine learning features in iPadOS,
like Visual Look Up, Subject Lift, and Live Text capture.
Or for the ML Enhance tool in Photomator,
which uses AI models trained on over 20 million pro images
to improve your photo with a single click.
We're thrilled to amp up performance with M2.
Amazing accessories expand what's possible on iPad Air.
The new Air works with the Magic Keyboard,
with its built-in trackpad, backlit keys, and terrific floating design.
And of course, it supports the amazing Apple Pencil,
so users can express their creative ideas in remarkable ways.
And with M2 under the hood,
the new Air supports Apple Pencil hover for greater precision,
letting you preview your mark before you make it.
So that's the new iPad Air,
now available in 11-inch and 13-inch models,
powered by the incredible M2 chip,
and featuring a landscape front camera and faster Wi-Fi.
The new iPad Air is more powerful and versatile than ever.
Now back to John.
βͺ βͺ
John: The new Air is awesome.
It meets the needs of so many users in so many ways.
And both models feature double the starting storage,
which is now 128GB.
We've also expanded the number of storage options
by adding 512GB and 1TB.
And even with all these upgrades,
we're thrilled that the new 11-inch Air still starts at just $599.
And the 13-inch Air is just $799.
That's a remarkable value for a device
with so many advanced features and capabilities.
You can order the new Air today, and it will be available next week.
Now let's turn our attention to the next chapter of iPad Pro.
βͺ βͺ
iPad Pro pioneers our most advanced technologies
and pushes the limits of what iPad can be.
And it empowers users to push the limits of their productivity
and creativity as well.
Users like illustrators, who use Procreate to produce their next masterpiece.
And 3D designers using SketchUp to conceive their most ambitious projects.
Of course, it's not just for pros.
iPad Pro is for anyone who wants the ultimate iPad experience.
It's the combination of the world's best displays,
the extraordinary performance of our latest M-series chips,
and advanced connectivity and accessories,
in an ultraportable design that puts iPad Pro in a class by itself.
Well today, we're not only going to push the limits of what you can do on iPad.
We're going to crush them!
βͺ βͺ
βͺ βͺ
βͺ βͺ
βͺ βͺ
This is the all-new, impossibly thin,
incredibly powerful iPad Pro!
It has a stunning new design,
breakthrough new display,
outrageous performance, and amazing accessories.
Let's get started with its stunning design.
We've always envisioned iPad as a magical sheet of glass,
and with this new design, that vision is brought to life more than ever.
The new Pro comes in two sizes:
a new, super portable 11-inch model
and a new, expansive 13-inch model.
And both are unbelievably thin.
The 11-inch Pro is 5.3 mm thin.
And the 13-inch Pro is an incredible 5.1 mm thin.
Compared to the previous iPad Pro, the difference is striking.
The new iPad Pro is even thinner than the iPod nano,
which makes it the thinnest Apple product ever!
And they're both lighter as well.
In fact, the 11-inch model is less than a pound
and the 13-inch model is nearly a quarter pound lighter than its predecessor.
iPad Pro comes in two great finishes: Silver and Space Black,
both with 100% recycled aluminum enclosures.
And it's just as strong as the previous design,
despite being so much thinner.
Just holding it in your hands is an unbelievable experience.
Now let's talk about its breakthrough new display.
With the new iPad Pro, we wanted to give customers
an even more remarkable visual experience.
And we did just that by bringing OLED to iPad for the very first time.
With OLED technology, the pixels generate both the light
and the color for unparalleled precision.
However, for the expansive displays in iPad Pro,
a single OLED panel doesn't generate enough brightness
to deliver the XDR performance iPad Pro users expect.
So we developed a state-of-the-art display that uses two OLED panels
and combines the light from both
to deliver phenomenal full-screen brightness.
This technology is called tandem OLED and it's a breakthrough for iPad Pro.
The new Pro can support an incredible 1000 nits of full-screen brightness
for both SDR and HDR content
and 1600 nits of peak HDR brightness.
No other device of its kind delivers this level of display quality.
And because tandem OLED technology enables sub-millisecond control
over the color and luminance of each pixel,
the display in the new Pro takes XDR precision to a whole new level.
Specular highlights in photos and video appear brighter.
Blacks are deeper and more true.
And there's more detail in shadows and low light than ever before on iPad.
And it's even more responsive to content in motion.
Everything you view on this display will look amazing.
And we're calling it the Ultra Retina XDR.
And it's coming to both models!
So now both sizes of iPad Pro feature our most advanced display technology.
HDR images of the night sky with details in the shadows
and pinpoint bright stars are rendered with stunning precision.
Beautifully captured HDR photos of gorgeous landscapes
look incredibly vibrant.
And getting drawn into a movie is a truly extraordinary experience.
It's like holding a cinema right in your hands.
And this display not only delivers breakthrough visual quality,
it's much thinner and lighter than the previous one,
enabling the striking design of the new iPad Pro.
And for Pro users working in high-end, color-managed workflows,
or in the most demanding ambient lighting conditions,
we're excited to bring a nano-texture glass option to iPad Pro
for the very first time.
Nano-texture glass is precisely etched at a nanometer scale,
maintaining image quality and contrast while scattering ambient light
for even less glare.
With all these amazing features,
the Ultra Retina XDR display is unquestionably
the world's most advanced display.
Now, let's talk about performance.
iPad Pro has always used incredibly advanced Apple silicon.
With M2 in the current iPad Pro,
it already delivers class-leading performance.
For the new iPad Pro, you might expect
that we would use the extremely powerful M3.
But this stunning design and breakthrough display
required that we make the leap to the next generation of Apple silicon.
And here it is.
βͺ βͺ
Introducing M4!
That's right.
The new Pro jumps from M2 all the way to M4
to enable its amazingly thin design and game-changing display
while delivering a huge leap in performance.
And to tell you more, here's Tim Millet.
βͺ βͺ
Tim Millet: M4 represents another big step forward for Apple silicon.
To start, M4 is built on second-generation
3 nanometer technology that's even more power efficient.
This was essential to deliver incredible performance
in the exceptionally thin and light design of iPad Pro.
And M4 also features an entirely new display engine
designed with pioneering technology that enables the stunning precision,
color, and brightness of the Ultra Retina XDR display.
In addition, M4 brings phenomenal performance to the new Pro.
It has a powerful new CPU
and builds upon the next-generation GPU architecture debuted on M3.
The new CPU, with up to four performance cores
and now with six efficiency cores,
all with next-generation ML accelerators,
delivers up to 50% faster CPU performance over M2 in the previous iPad Pro.
The next-generation 10-core GPU architecture
includes powerful features like Dynamic Caching,
and brings hardware-accelerated mesh shading and ray tracing
to iPad for the first time!
So games like "Diablo Immortal" look fantastic.
And pro rendering apps like Octane will flat-out fly
with up to four times faster performance than M2!
And we've added these architecture and performance improvements
while maintaining our industry-leading performance per watt.
M4 can deliver the same performance as M2,
using just half the power!
That's a tremendous gain in performance per watt,
and perfect for the thin and light design of the new Pro.
Now, when we compare it to the latest PC chip in a thin and light laptop,
M4 can deliver the same performance using just a quarter of the power!
That's the amazing power-efficient performance lead
that Apple silicon provides.
Another way Apple silicon leads the industry
is with the Neural Engine, which the industry calls an NPU.
The Neural Engine is an IP-block in the chip
dedicated to the acceleration of AI workloads.
Now, while the chip industry is just starting
to add NPUs to some of their processors,
we've been including our industry-leading Neural Engine in our chip for years.
And now with M4, we have our most powerful Neural Engine ever,
capable of an astounding 38 trillion operations per second!
That's a breathtaking 60 times faster
than our first Neural Engine in the A11 Bionic.
Together with next-generation ML accelerators in the CPU,
a high-performance GPU, and more memory bandwidth,
the Neural Engine makes M4 an outrageously powerful chip for AI.
It can do amazing things even faster,
like easily isolate a subject from its background in 4K video
with just a tap in Final Cut Pro.
In fact, with this level of performance, the Neural Engine in M4 is more powerful
than any neural processing unit in any AI PC today!
So that's M4.
It's built with cutting-edge technology that enables the breakthrough design
and stunning display of the new Pro,
and delivers a giant leap in performance.
With M4, iPad Pro widens its lead as the most powerful device of its kind.
Now, back to John.
John: The new iPad Pro wouldn't even be possible without M4.
And despite its much thinner and lighter design,
we've also substantially improved its thermal performance.
By incorporating graphite sheets into the main housing
and copper in the Apple logo,
we've been able to improve thermal performance by nearly 20%.
And the combination of this improved design
along with M4 means the new iPad Pro is up to four times faster
than the previous iPad Pro with M2
and up to an astounding 10 times faster than the original iPad Pro.
Now, bringing iPad Pro to life is iPadOS,
with a number of advanced features that empower pros to do even more on iPad.
With Reference Mode, iPadOS can precisely match color requirements
for tasks like color grading,
where accurate and consistent image quality are extremely critical.
And Stage Manager support for multiple overlapping windows
and external displays allows advanced users to work with more apps at once.
iPadOS also has advanced frameworks like Core ML
that make it easy for developers to tap into the Neural Engine
to deliver powerful AI features, right on device.
And users can find thousands of these powerful apps on the App Store.
Pro apps unleash the incredible capabilities of iPad Pro.
Apps like Shapr3D enable users to design in CAD with Apple Pencil.
Or ZBrush, which brings game-changing 3D modeling and sculpting.
Our own pro apps for iPad unleash the remarkable capabilities
of iPad Pro as well.
Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro launched on iPad last year
and have given artists the ability to create in completely new ways.
And now, only a year later, both apps are getting huge updates.
Introducing Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro 2!
To tell you more, here's Will.
βͺ βͺ
Will Hui: Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad
were redesigned from the ground up for touch,
so seasoned Mac users extending their workflows
and next-generation iPad creators can get even closer to their content.
And today we're unveiling amazing updates that take creativity to the next level.
Let's start with Final Cut Pro,
which lets you record, edit,
finish, and share professional videos, all on iPad.
With the new iPad Pro and M4, it absolutely screams,
with final rendering up to two times faster than M1!
The latest version introduces an incredible new feature
to speed up your shoot called Live Multicam.
It transforms your iPad into a multicam production studio
and puts you in the director's chair.
Live Multicam enables filmmakers to connect and preview
up to four cameras all at once, all in one place.
Creators can remotely direct each video angle and dial in exposure,
white balance, focus, and more.
To support Live Multicam, we created an entirely new app for iPhone and iPad.
And we call it Final Cut Camera.
Final Cut Camera allows users to easily connect multiple iPhones or iPads
to capture additional angles during a Live Multicam shoot
or record professional videos with precise manual controls
as a free standalone app.
Final Cut Pro automatically transfers and syncs each Live Multicam angle
so you can seamlessly move from production to editing!
New external project support now offers creators
the flexibility of editing projects directly off a drive,
leveraging the fast Thunderbolt connection of iPad Pro.
Editing and finishing is incredible with M4,
with support for up to four times more streams of ProRes RAW than M1.
Color grade, apply multiple effects,
and render graphically intense timelines even faster.
Your HDR content has never looked better!
Final Cut Pro 2 transforms iPad Pro into a more powerful production studio
and opens up entirely new video workflows.
βͺ βͺ
Logic Pro for iPad turns things up for music producers.
Designed for everyone from emerging to established artists,
Logic Pro for iPad has delivered the entire studio experience
with the simplicity of touch.
Logic Pro 2 is so exciting and it's smarter than ever.
Today, artists find the Drummer feature in Logic fantastic
for adding drum performances to any song.
Now Drummer is getting some new bandmates in a feature we call Session Players.
