“Thinnest iPad Ever” – WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?

Apple's brand new 13-in M4 iPad Pro the

thinnest Apple device ever thinner than

even an iPod Nano it's wild to see how

far technology has come but is it

durable can it survive everyday life

that's what we're here to find

out hit that subscribe button and Buckle

in we're going to see how this iPad is

so thin Inside the Box we get a color

matched USBC cable and a 20 W charging

brick thank you very much but that's it

first thing I noticed on this M4 iPad is

that since it's so thin it's actually

difficult to pick up off my desk and it

looks like mine might have arrived with

a slight bow in the housing as someone

who works with metal regularly I can

zero out my angle finder on my flat

tabletop set it up against the M4 iPad

Pro and it looks like we are. 1° off

from zero right out of the box splitting

hairs of course not that I have many to

split but between the Milling Heat

Treating and warping I imagine not many

of these ultra thin iPads are going to

arrive perfectly flat .1 de is better

than I was expecting though and to be

honest while I don't personally yearn

for ultra thin Electronics I can still

appreciate that packing all this

Hardware into such a tiny device is an

incredible feat it really is only 5.1 mm

thick for my American audience that's

about the same thickness as 3/4 seven

razor blades or 1/3 the width of a Ben

and& Jerry lid and just for the record I

am not the Jerry mentioned in B and

Jerry's however I am available for

adoption where was I oh yeah apple says

that in order to increase the overall

structure with decreased thickness

they've added a cowling over the main

logic board that logic board runs

through the center of the iPad and I can

even feel that Central rib through the

top class with just my fingers and

hopefully we'll be able to see it with

our eyeballs in just a few minutes the

most impressive technological addition

to the iPads this year in my opinion has

got to be the tandem OLED display let's

take a peek at it through my microscope

OLED screens are awesome the

individually lit pixels as you can see

here through the microscope deliver

super crisp and vibrant images what

Apple has done here for the first time

ever is stack two OLED screens on top of

each other so not only are there 264

pixels per inch but there are also

apparently 264 identical pixels below

those pixels acting as a backlight a

noled back light for an OLED display

this gives us a ridiculous 1,000 nits of

HDR brightness with the 1,600 nits Peak

if you notice the file icon on the M4

iPad Pro has super long blue diodes

while the iPhone 15 on that same folder

icon has much smaller dodes within the

exact same footprint this is actually

only because the iPhone 15 OLED has

twice the pixel density and is in no way

comparable to the tandem OLED

conversation since my microscope only

sees in a 2d plane and and tandem OLED

exists in three dimensions but it still

looks cool and it was worth a shot the

tandem OLED isn't the only thing Apple

changed up there's quite a bit more

Hardware inside of the apple pencil Pro

I'm definitely not the Target

demographic for $129 professional pencil

especially when my razor knife is only

15 bucks but I guess it just depends on

which side of the tablet you'll be

drawing on as you saw the tip is

removable and inside that plastic

housing is a pressure sensitive ribbon

that can sense minute pressure

differences from your fingers we first

saw this technology debuted with the

htcu 12 plus Android phone back in 2018

the ribbon triggers a taptic engine that

we can find past the square mounting

magnets it's all tucked up into the back

end where the Eraser should be the

taptic engine makes it realistically

feel like an actual button is getting

clicked even though there are no clicky

buttons it's a complex piece of

engineering and an interesting tool

built for a very specific job some of my

favorite tools however are my Mo picks

which help us differentiate between

different materials the tandem OLED

apple is using this time around feels to

be protected with glass and since there

are no marks left by my Mo's 2 3 four or

five picks we can be sure that apple is

using a thin tempered glass screen that

scratches at a level six with deeper

grooves at a level seven the Mo's

hardness is especially relevant this

time around when we open up Apple's new

magic

keyboard we already know that something

at a softer level on most scale of

Harden cannot scratch any of the levels

above it a level three aluminum won't

scratch a level six glass and a level

six glass will never scratch a level 10

Diamond however this time around Apple's

magic keyboard is made from an anodized

aluminum the keys themselves are plastic

anodization is necessary for material

protection Aesthetics and as well

there's a rather large 1% of the human

population that has a bare aluminum

contact allergy we learned this while

building wheelchairs at my factory bare

aluminum is not like Kryptonite or

anything it's more like a slow motion

poison ivy rash after extended contact

and the aluminum oxide anodizing top

layer helps eliminate those reactions F

and chat for the F but that same

aluminum oxide coating also ranks at a

level 9 on most scale of hardness which

when pressed right up against the level

six glass display of the M4 iPad Pro

makes me worried however even though the

metal is coming directly in contact with

that glass the magic keyboard hinge does

not allow for any lateral movement which

reduces the abrasive potential and to

further decrease worries of accidental

scratches I took my level 9 antiz iPhone

15 and scuffed up the iPad glass as well

as I could but each of the marks wiped

completely away I imagine the surface

lubricity of the anodizing and

smoothness of the glass along with the

rigidness of the magic keyboard will all

help to keep the glass undamaged so far

there doesn't appear to be anything to

worry about there's no glaring build

quality issues yet there's one 12

megapixel selfie camera tucked into the

Longs side bezel of the iPad Pro

protected with the same scratch

resistant glass and Swinging our way up

to the ultra thin frame rails we see we

have a whole lot more anodized

aluminum along with the apple pencil

Dock and two metal volume buttons that

cannot be removed the top of the iPad

Pro has two stereo speaker openings and

a terribly play center microphone hole

you'll see why in a second moving along

to the other long flat side Apple has

removed the microphone hole in the

center of this

rail glad that's gone and down here at

the bottom of the M4 iPad we can see

that the thickness of the iPad is

literally constrained by the tiny size

of the USBC Port which sits right

between two more stereo speaker openings

if this thing gets any thinner will have

a camera bump and a charging port bump

speaking of camera bumps Apple's removed

one of the camera lenses this year and

to be honest no one's going to notice

there's a lower Time oflight 3D lar

scanner and the upper circle is the only

remaining 12 megapixel rear camera with

a single color diffused LED flash which

is also tucked into the same camera hump

now one of my favorite parts of owning

an iPad is its immense canvas for which

I can display my

artwork drawing on the tandem OLED seems

also temporary so I'll just use the back

I learned two new things recently one

apples are made up of 25% air which was

news to me and even more interesting

lions like the anatomically correct

Beast you see here

actually eat apples yeah they're

carnivores and all that but if they get

hungry enough apples are on the menu you

learn something new every day to keep

your own iPad from getting scratched

might I recommend my tear down skin

collab with dbrand a stute observers

might notice that this skin is the same

tear down skin as last year because of

course we haven't seen the inside of the

M4 yet so how would I have a skin for it

but don't you worry there's a very large

probability that we'll see the insides

in about 60 seconds and then we can

start shipping out the real deal link

down in the description the coolest part

of the tandem OLED that I didn't mention

before is that because of the double

diodes each pixel doesn't have to run at

maximum load just like a person can walk

farther than they can Sprint two pixels

working together means that a single

Pixel doesn't have to work as hard so

overall the screen uses less power while

having a much longer lifespan which is

awesome there also appears to be no

effect on the 13-in ultra Retina Display

from my lighter even after burning it

for more than 60 seconds so thumbs up

for that finally the bin test no one's

going to be putting their iPad Pro in

their back pocket obviously but it will

very much be bumping around in backpacks

book bags and as Apple's thinnest

product ever we need to know how this

Netflix machine is going to hold up to

Everyday Life when B from the back the

answer

is that it holds up surprisingly well

like suspicious black magic levels of

structural Integrity going on

you can see the glass screen literally

Ripple away from the frame eliminating

any water resistance but all that

Hardware itself is still intacted yeah

the M4 iPad Pro might be a bit bendy

right out of the box and will definitely

not be straight after a few months of

regular use but that Central spine is

definitely providing enough structure

for horizontal bins I'm very impressed

vertical bins

however still not as wrecked as Drake

but holy macaroni there's no recovering

from this catastrophic failure right at

the charging port the M4 iPad Pro is now

built like a rainbow or bow an arrow or

a

Boeing joke just made my life insurance

go through the roof kind of like that

wheel did but the backs side of the

charging port itself is what put

pressure on the inner side of that glass

cracking It Up From The Bottom Edge

which means now we get to go find the M4

chip I do happen to have another smaller

11-in M4 iPad Pro with the Nano texture

glass so if this video gets 100,000

likes we can see if that one also falls

apart in the same place if we roll back

the glass like a very expensive

tortilla we can get our first look at

that Center spine or cowling that Apple

added over the motherboard this time

around we also have some very circular

loudspeakers instead of rectangular and

with 14 Phillips head screws removed

Apple's cowling comes off in two pieces

it's incredibly thin like the rest of

the iPad but obviously gets the job done

if Apple could add another more

perpendicular spine running widthwise

near the charging port where all that

structure was removed this thing

probably would have survived and there

you have it the M4 chip in all of its

Glory right alongside the 10,000 209 Mah

pouch style battery honestly it's a

pretty cool tablet congrats to Apple on

the tandem OLED development let me know

if I should test a smaller unit and grab

your tear down skin with the link in the

description thanks D for watching I'll

see you around
