Following the announcement of Malaysia’s first Apple Store opening in TRX, Apple’s latest iPad Pro and iPad Air are now available for purchase starting at RM2,999. This exciting launch comes just three weeks after the unveiling of iPadOS 17, the newest operating system for Apple tablets.
iPad Pro: Powerhouse Performance
The star of the show is undoubtedly the iPad Pro, boasting the most powerful Apple chip ever created – the M4. This marks a significant shift, with Apple prioritizing the tablet over the MacBook for the first time. The M4 chip packs a punch with a 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU, and a next-generation Neural Engine capable of up to 38 trillion operations per second (TOPS).
Apple has also focused on sleekness, with the 13-inch iPad Pro measuring just 5.1mm thin and the 11-inch model coming in at 5.3mm. The display takes center stage with a stunning Tandem OLED panel supporting a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The experience is further enhanced with the new Apple Pencil Pro, designed to seamlessly integrate with the iPad Pro.
iPad Air: Power and Portability
The iPad Air isn’t one to be outdone. Powered by the M2 chip, it delivers a 50% performance boost compared to its predecessor. This translates to handling demanding tasks with ease, including graphics-intensive applications and machine learning powered by various apps. It is available in two sizes: 11-inch and 13-inch versions.

The new iPad Pro is available for pre-order soon, with prices starting at RM5,299 for the 11-inch Wi-Fi model. You can check it out through the Apple website now.
