New iPad Pros come with M1 chipset, 5G and Thunderbolt, the 12.9" model has mini-LED display

20 April 2021
The M1 chip is much faster and you can configure your tablet with up to 16 GB of RAM and 2 TB storage.

    I'd love the M1 chips chipset on the S21Ultra, with 20Gb Ram, 6000mah, and CarlZeiss optics and Xneon flash, with telephoto lens like the Sony1iii.

      Nobody is comparing Antutu scores here. Cross platform compatibility isn't even applicable here.
      The A14 scores around 640k for iPhone 12 pro Max in test no.1
      It drops to around 400k with few more tests.
      Samsung Exynos is also in the same boat but it doesn't throttle that much.

        Anonymous, 22 Apr 2021what what about the 8cx thing then??Apart from 8cx, there is also SQ1 and SQ2 co-developed with Microsoft. Performance on those are higher than Qualcomm SOCs for phones. Performance wise it is adequate, its Windows-on-arm that is the issue. Microsoft launched one laptop with it and not much else.
        With such half-hearted effort, it is not going to get traction. Apple has launched 4 arm based macs in last six months, Microsoft has launched 2 in 10 years(including Windows RT in 2012).

          Most people use windows because it is familiar and comes bundled with most consumer laptops and desktops. It does not reflect on functionality in any way.

            Mind you that A14's GPU is still ahead of any SoCs used by Android OEMs even at the throttled state. The % decrease in performance from the burst mode to the sustained mode is steeper, but it's still faster. On top of that, Antutu isn't cross platform compatible.

But creating a forum doesn't mean they'll kill the comment section right?

              The discussion here in the comments is very chaotic and cluttered.

                Anonymous, 22 Apr 2021what what about the 8cx thing then??You're totally right, Qualcomm does make ultra low power laptop/tablet SoCs. Sadly even the next generation 8cx won't come close to M1 in terms of performance.

Also, there is no problem to be solved. As I said, most people who post here are anonymous. That named anonymous user tries to make an issue out of a nonissue.

                                Of course, we are all anonymous on internet, if we want it to be.
                                The point I was trying to say is, that on this site anonymous people have nothing to loose. I mean they just get their comments deleted, big deal. And because of this, their language, their type of comments is always more vulgar (on the edge of what is permitted).
                                The real account people (even if they don't have anything material attached to the account) they loose their posts, their name, their ratings. There are people in here that have even 3000+ comments in their account. Imagine loosing that and needed to start all over again just because some anonymous person provoked you and you said something bad to him/her.
                                I am just asking to be something equally. Real accounts get blocked, so anonymous accounts should have something similar (not just delete their inappropriate comments).
