Review: The M5 iPad Pro is tomorrow’s tablet today

What it replaces

The M5 iPad Pro replaces the M4 iPad Pro, which used to be the best tablet money could buy and has now become the second-best tablet you can get. 

The only effective difference between both models is the processor, Wi-Fi 7 support, and support for fast charging — the M5 iPad Pro can get to a 50% charge in around 30 minutes with a 60W adapter. Everything else — display technology, cameras, speakers, capacity, size, and weight is exactly the same (bar memory bandwidth and installed memory, which is higher). 

The differences between the newest model and the M2-powered iPad Pro introduced in 2022 are a little greater; these include the processor, better display technology, more CPU cores, camera improvements, and greater screen brightness and resolution.
