I held the 11” at the store for a while and, trust me, you can clearly notice it. It’s absolutely gorgeous.

Anyone having issues with the pencil

I ordered both, may keep my old 11 and stick with the 13 inch. If its a sizable difference between the old 11 and the new one, will keep the new one and sell the old one.
Couldn‘t disagree with this statement more. My 2022 12.9” iPad Pro feels good in the hand but the lighter and much thinner 2024 13” M4 iPad Pro is a welcome addition and is confirmed in reviews.
Im so happy Apple went the route of making the iPad Pros thinner and lighter. Battery life of 10 hrs is plenty.
I agree. Now that I have mine I love the fact that it’s lighter. It’s definitely a plus of the new model
Haha, maybe this is the problem!Whoops, should have done an iPadOS update; now your iPad is confused.
either that or im thinking this is as close to a mac its been with the Magic Keyboard Having a hard time deciding 11" or 13". I have a 2019 iPad Pro 11" but wondering if ill like the 13" this time.
I got the 11" today along with the new Magic Keyboard and I'm loving it! It's replacing the 11" M1. The 13" would be way too big for me to carry as I use it a lot on trains.
I can confirm that other than the brightness, there is very little, if anything. In it between my old M1 11 inch and the new 13 inch M4
I’m quite happy with my delivery but am troubled by an extremely annoying issue with keyboards:
On my M1 11 inch, I can select “Dutch (Belgium)” in the keyboard section and subsequently select QWERTY as the layout.
On my new M4, I only have the option for QWERTY - ISO which is quite different. McCann someone confirm this?

The 11 M1 didn’t get miniLED; I am really surprised to hear you say that there’s no difference (from your perspective) other than brightness between the panel on your M1 11 and M4 13…I can tell a big difference even between my iPhone and my M1 11.
After looking at them on display, i cancelled the pickup. Screens look great and its what ive waited for but not so much better than the xdr 12.9 5th gen i have. I just don’t use the ipad enough to warrant paying hundreds and getting new accessories as well for just a slightly better screen. Don‘t care about thin or m4.
I’m thinking i’ll wait til current ipad isn’t worth using which could be 4-5 more years.

That’s a reasonable decision to make; there’s no sense in updating if you’re not going to get any appreciable improvement out of it. I skipped the M2 iPad generation specifically because I was waiting for OLED panels, and I can tell you that day-to-day I don’t feel like I’ve missed anything using my M1. Will probably be the same for you.
No worries, but for the life of me, in a daylight lit office with both set to mid brightness, it is hard to tell.
Of course, if you kill lights or go to a dark room, you notice the deep black of the OLED panel and you can tell the dark mode UI on the M1 11 has an almost greenish tinge to it. But those are quite specific conditions...
This reviewer captures it well:
He compares the MiniLED with OLED, it is nearly the same in my experience with the 11...
Who cares about using the new ipad in a dark room. The biggest benefit to the brighter screen is when using the ipad outdoors in bright sunlight.
Different people have different needs/expectations. You‘ve never used your iPad in bed at night? Or in a dim office environment early in the morning?
I do. The new display is a benefit for both situations.
Need to get used to how light and thin this incredible product is. It’s so delightfully useable I think the iPad Mini can be eliminated from the lineup. This is a game changing device that will pull even more away from the Mac and over to the IPad Pro lifestyle.

I am in love with the screen and the Magic Keyboard and the thinness and lightness of the 13 inch iPad. Especially the screen is ****ing amazing, the contrast in a dimly lit room is much better than my previous M1 12.9. Dark mode text especially looks so much crisper and cleaner (like this forum for example). Finally I got rid of LCD on all of my devices, good riddance!
I‘m very happy with the upgrade! ❤️

Best Buy sent mine ground and no signature required. Refused to ship to store yet they’re in stock. Nowhere near home.
Update: when I opened the outer box the iPad box was intact. No sign of damage whatsoever.

Who cares: people who use their iPad in their bedroom, or spend their evenings indoors.
I use my iPad every night in a dark room. I turn down the brightness to make up for it.
Geez. That shipping box looks awful. I would be nervous to see the condition of the retail box inside. Apple delivered mine via UPS, the iPad retail box was in shipping box. Surprised to see no padding or bubble wrap Or plastics. just a box and a box.
The camera placement is ass…. The case I got and all the cases I’m seeing puts the camera at the bottom when using it horizontal which means it can’t see your face….
