htmlOn October 17, technology media MacRumors reported that Apple may release the 2022 iPad Pro this month. , like the previous generation, still offers 11-inch and 12.9-inch versions, but the former will not be able to obtain the mini LED screen. It is reported that most of the parameters of the new iPad Pro are consistent with the previous generation, and the performance is upgraded to an M2 chip.

At present, Apple seems to be deliberately opening up the gap between the same products. Such a solution has caused it to fall on the iPhone 14 series, but Apple has not stopped continuing this operation. In the latest leak, Apple will officially announce two models of the iPad Pro 2022 version this month. Among them, the 11-inch still uses LCD screen material and does not use the same mini LED screen as the 12.9-inch version of the iPad Pro, which is quite regrettable. In addition, both new iPad Pros, , use the latest M2 chip, which will also be the first appearance of the M2 chip on iPad. The performance of is worth looking forward to.

Although LCD screens have a long history of use in various iPad series and have performed quite excellently when the process is mature, mini LED, as a new feature designed by Apple for the high-end iPad Pro, has to make a difference between 11 feet and 12.9 inches, which is inevitably criticized by consumers. With the support of mini LED screen, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro has a peak brightness of 1600 nits and a super high contrast ratio of 1000000:1. These features are not available in the 11-inch version of the iPad Pro.

I have to say that since the birth of iPad Pro, has been given the attributes of "high-end" and "productivity" by Apple. For iPad Pro, its natural mission is not to fight against the fierce offensive from the Android camp cost-effective tablets, so naturally there is no need to pay too much attention to cost-effectiveness. But Apple's current strategy is to open up the gap between the same series of products and accurately snipe at the customer base of each demand. Just like this iPad Pro, for non-design workers with certain performance needs, the 11-inch version is the most cost-effective one among high-end tablets.
More importantly, the 12.9-inch version of iPad Pro has reached a 8,000 yuan level. In this field, its competitors are mobile office notebooks from various computer manufacturers. Since cost-effectiveness is no longer its own advantage, Apple naturally needs to equip it with unique features to enhance its competitiveness, but all this comes at the expense of the "high-end" attributes of the 11-inch iPad Pro.
