Will the M4 iPad Pro bend? We have an official answer from Apple and real-life tests from YouTubers that confirm the tablet is very durable.
After Apple unveiled the incredibly thin M4 iPad Pro, I realized how amazing this engineering feat is for the tablet’s battery life. The new iPad Pro models are significantly thinner than their predecessors while rocking a much better (and also thinner) display and the best SoC Apple has ever made. Yet they still offer the same great battery life. Not to mention that you get all those upgrades inside a tablet that’s lighter than before. That’s certainly something I want from an iPad.
But when Apple unveiled it, I wondered how the M4 iPad Pro would behave in the real world and whether it would survive an important type of stress test: bending. That’s because the previous models were prone to warping in some instances. They’d definitely bend if you tried hard enough.
Luckily, we learned directly from Apple that the M4 iPad Pro features a new internal design. Apple added a structure around the logic board in the middle of the iPad to improve its rigidity. Now that the 2024 iPad Pros are available to purchase, we have our first stress tests from real-world testing.
