The double OLED screen, the new 5.1 mm thickness or the arrival of the M4 yesterday overshadowed several details that the iPad Pro lost and that many overlooked. There are a total of 5 things, more or less important, that the new Apple tablet has eliminated compared to the 2022 model.
It seems that Apple has been taking a look at the millions of usage reports of its iPad Pro, investigating which details users value most and what things it can remove from the new model to make it even thinner. Well, the result leaves us with several relatively important shortcomings. In fact, a couple are already giving something to talk about.
Which are? We have started to investigate the specifications to tell you the 5 things that the iPad Pro has lost compared to the previous generation. Some have no real importance beyond the meme, but others can make you have to dig deep into your pocket.
Goodbye to the charger on the iPad Pro
That’s right, one of the most important shortcomings of the new iPad Pro—also the Air—is that They arrive without a charger in the box. It is something that iPhone users have already assimilated, but it has caught the buyers of these renewed tablets a little by surprise. The contents of the box now boil down to two things: the iPad Pro and a 1 meter USB C charging cable. If you want the adapter, you will have to search around the house, use the one on your smartphone or take out your wallet.
Back to the single camera
It seems that double camera It didn’t quite come together in the iPad Pro 2022 and Apple has cut it short. The 10 MP ultra-wide-angle sensor is gone in the new model, leaving a single 12 MP wide-angle lens. The company has not given any explanations, although everything indicates that the photographic use of the iPad is not as relevant as one might think in the previous generation.
The iPad Pro Cellular no longer has a SIM slot
Now, if you are going to pay extra because your iPad Pro can connect to a data network, you should know that this connection will be made through eSIM. Apple has eliminated the slots to insert physical cards, probably, in order to reduce the weight and thickness of the device. It does not represent a delay as such, but it is important that you check if your operator has this virtual SIM service.
5G mmWave is already a thing of the past
Continuing with the networks, the new iPad Pro has also removed support for 5G mmWave. Doesn’t it sound familiar to you? Normally, in Spain it is almost non-existent and, although in the US Verizon is committed to technology, fewer users are taking advantage of it. For this reason Apple has decided that it is time to say goodbye to this band.
The iPad Pro box does not come with stickers
If you liked opening the box of your Apple products, taking them out and putting the apple stickers in a drawer, we have bad news for you. The new iPad Pros have stopped including these stickers with the company logo. The one in Cupertino puts an end to an era, although not radically.
If you want your long-awaited stickers You can order them at the Apple Store. The genius They should promote them to you with the purchase of your iPad Pro without question, but only if you ask for them and as long as they are available. Although curious, it is a movement that the company makes to get rid of another small percentage of plastics and debris in the cases of your devices.
