It's important to note that this A2230 iPad Pro 11-Inch (2nd Gen) is compatible with Gigabit-class LTE, specifically bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 32, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 46, 48, and 66, but it does not support bands 14 or 71. While official Apple marketing materials initially listed this A2230 model number for Hong Kong and Taiwan only, numerous reader reports confirm it was also sold across Europe and in other markets outside North America.
The iPad Pro 11-Inch (Wi-Fi/Cellular Global - 2nd Gen) features a fully-laminated, antireflective 11" LED-backlit 2388x1668 "Liquid Retina" display (264 ppi, 600 nits) framed by a thin black bezel and housed in a slim case with rounded corners and flat sides. It is available in either silver or "Space Gray."
This iPad Pro is powered by an eight-core 2.5 GHz Apple A12Z Bionic processor, an "embedded M12 coprocessor," and a "Neural Engine" for machine learning and AR. It includes 6 GB of RAM and storage options of 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB.
Key features include LiDAR and trackpad support via an optional "Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro" and third-party devices. It also offers "Face ID" authentication and supports the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen (A2051, MU8F2AM/A, US$129), which charges magnetically. It has a 7-megapixel front camera and a dual rear camera system (12-megapixel wide and 10-megapixel ultra-wide).
In addition to USB-C, it supports dual-band 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) with HT80 with MIMO and Bluetooth 5.0. It also has five microphones and a four-speaker system.
Battery life is estimated at 10 hours for Wi-Fi web surfing or video, or 9 hours on cellular data. This model features a software-based eSIM and a nano-SIM slot.
Compared to its predecessor, this iPad Pro 11-Inch (Wi-Fi/Cellular Global - 2nd Gen) and its Wi-Fi-Only sibling share the same physical size, display, and similar internals, but add LiDAR, an improved rear camera system (ultra-wide), faster Wi-Fi, better microphones, and more entry-level storage.
