Product Features
Unprecedented Power
Processing power, camera capability, battery performance, and everything else that makes the iPad Pro Apple's most capable tablet, brought into Zone 1 for the first time. Enough to run the most demanding applications where the work actually happens.
More screen to work with
An 11-inch display brings full-size documents into the field, so there is no longer a reason to print them. Read a complete P&ID as it was drawn instead of one section at a time, and keep more than one application in view to work across them at once.
Built for Long-Term Value
Six to seven years of iPadOS upgrades and close to nine years of security updates, plus a replaceable cover that lets you take out the iPad for trade-in or resale when it's time for an upgrade. No forced replacement cycles, and value recovered at the end of service life.
