The line of professional tablets has not been updated for two years, only to triumphantly appear on the market now that users have time to get bored of new models. There was no presentation again, it seems that Apple has chosen a new tactic and now all their products are produced without unnecessary pomp. Products for 2020 appeared in the store of the official website: iPad Pro, MacBook Air, Mac Mini.
IPad Pro 2020 price
The new iPad Pro 2020 is similar to its predecessors, but the changes introduced are enough to make us urgently want to get one of them.
The first innovation is noticeable to the naked eye: a dual camera, like on the iPhone 11. It is quite massive, but since the new iPads received display sizes of 11 "and 12.9", it looks absolutely logical. The main camera and the super-wide-angle module are a tandem that has earned the admiration and love of users, because it is thanks to it that the pictures on the iPhone 11 (and now on the iPad Pro) are so high-quality.
But even this perfectly working module has been improved. Apple seems to have embarked on a course of "conquering" augmented reality, and has endowed the camera with a LiDAR scanner. It works at the level of photons, calculates the speed of passage of light reflected from objects. This is what will speed up and simplify the processes of working with additional reality. Information on the official Apple website says that the same technology was used in NASA when preparing an expedition to Mars. We do not know how much LiDAR helped in this, but in terms of the scale of epicity and innovation, the Cupertino company surpasses the competition with ease.
Five studio microphones perfectly complement the camera: the sound in the video will turn out to match the beautiful picture.
The new A12Z Bionic processor is powerful, energy efficient, but the average user will hardly notice the change. iPad Pro has always worked flawlessly, even when multitasking, and it can be difficult to dramatically improve what works perfectly.
RAM is also enough for any user: 128, 256, 512 Gb and 1Tb. Depending on it, the price tag on the model will also increase: on the younger model 11 "- the price of the iPad pro is from $ 749, $ 849, $ 1049, $ 1249, on the older 12.9" - from $ 899, $ 999, $ 1199, $ 1399, respectively.
But, of course, the iPad Pro 2020 itself is not as impressive as the Magic Keyboard, which Apple will soon offer us to buy. This is not a simple keyboard, it serves as both an input device and a stand, and an impressive artwork for the workspace.
Magic Keyboard is endowed with magnets, to which the tablet will be attached. With its help, you can change the angle of the iPad depending on the wishes of the user. A regular case allows you to install the device in only two positions.
The key travel is light and quiet, the keyboard itself is responsive and pleasant to the touch - all thanks to the "scissor" technology (which is also endowed with the MacBook Pro 16). Plus, unlike other portable keyboards, Magic Keyboard has a full-fledged trackpad with absolutely all the capabilities of computer versions.
Most importantly, it will work with the previous generation iPad!
As for the new 2020 MacBook Airs, they are not too different from previous generations. They also installed a keyboard with "scissors", which we wrote about above, which, of course, will be a huge advantage for those whose activities are associated with a large number of texts.
Buy MacBook Air 2020
The MacBook Air 2020 will be available in three colors (Silver, Gold, Space Gray) and two configurations. The younger model has 256 Gb of storage, a Core i3 processor and Turbo Boost up to 3.2 GHz, the older model has 512 Gb, Core i5 and Turbo Boost up to 3.5 GHz. The cost will be, respectively, the price of a macbook air from $ 899 and from $ 1199.
Mac mini - a small desktop computer has practically not changed, it just has twice as much memory, and the processors have been updated to the eighth generation (256 Gb - Core, i3 8, 512 Gb - Core i5, 8). Updates seem completely imperceptible, but perhaps someone was waiting for them in order to acquire this miniature device - after all, Apple cannot leave its products "standing still" without progress.
