The latest Apple iPad Pro featuring an OLED display marks a significant step forward for the company's tablet line. At the heart of the device lies the powerful Apple M4 chip, the same one destined for upcoming Apple Macs. This translates to impressive processing capabilities, making the iPad Pro a strong contender for tasks traditionally handled by computers.

Beyond the M4 chip and the stunning OLED screen, the teardown of Apple iPad Pro M4 exposes a series of noteworthy changes. These include a redesigned copper logo for improved thermal management, a sizable battery, and a revamped thermal solution – all contributing to a more efficient and potentially faster user experience.

Main Highlights from the New Apple iPad Pro Teardown

So, one of the main things that the Apple iPad Pro teardown has revealed is that the new tablet is easier to repair. Compared to the previous models, you can get to things a little easily. This means the at-home repair kits won't be too hard to work with.

As for the changes under the hood, the teardown shows that the components are tightly packed inside the iPad Pro. Apple likely had to opt for such a tight layout to keep the new tablet thin and compact. But the company didn't skimp on the battery. It comes with two batteries, which are placed one on each side. This placement ensures proper balance and makes the tablet easier to use.

We also saw a repositioned Face ID on the new Apple iPad Pro. Also, the Apple logo on the back isn't just there for aesthetics. Instead, it has practical use. It is made of copper, and it's there to help dissipate heat from the core components.

Other than that, the disassembly shows redesigned magnets. These will make Apple accessories such as Pencil Pro and Magic Keyboard snap better than the Apple iPad Pro. Check out the disassembly video attached below.
