The iPad Pro 11-Inch (Wi-Fi/Cellular Global - 4th Gen) features a fully-laminated, antireflective 11" LED-backlit 2388x1668 "Liquid Retina" display (264 ppi, 600 nits) within a slim black bezel, housed in a thin case with rounded corners and flat sides. It is available in silver or "Space Gray."

This device is powered by a 3.49 GHz Apple M2 processor with 8 cores (4 performance, 4 efficiency), a 10-core GPU, a 16-core Neural Engine, and 100 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Models with 128 GB, 256 GB, or 512 GB of storage have 8 GB of RAM, while 1 TB or 2 TB models have 16 GB. It also includes a Thunderbolt / USB 4 port.

Like their predecessors, the iPad Pro 11" (4th Gen) models support LiDAR, external keyboards and trackpads, and the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen (A2051, MU8F2AM/A, US$129), which charges magnetically. A new "Hover" feature shows a preview where the pencil will land. The front 12-megapixel "TrueDepth" camera supports "Center Stage" and "Face ID," while the dual rear camera has 12-megapixel wide and 10-megapixel ultra-wide lenses.

Connectivity includes Thunderbolt / USB 4, dual-band 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6E) with 2x2 MIMO, and Bluetooth 5.3. It also has five microphones and a four-speaker system.

Battery life is rated at 10 hours for Wi-Fi web surfing or video, and 9 hours on cellular data. It supports both eSIM and a nano-SIM slot.

Compared to its predecessor, this iPad Pro 11-Inch (4th Gen) model maintains the same size, display, and cameras but features a faster processor and architecture, faster Wi-Fi, more advanced Bluetooth, ProRes video capture, and the new Apple Pencil "Hover" feature.

The global cellular model of the M2 iPad Pro 11-inch (A2761) was reviewed as the ultimate expression of portable power and connectivity. The M2 chip provided a significant performance uplift, ensuring the device could handle the most demanding professional workflows with ease. The Apple Pencil Hover feature was a standout innovation, praised for adding a new layer of precision and control for creative tasks. This model offered fast Wi-Fi 6E and comprehensive sub-6GHz 5G support, making it a reliable tool for professionals working from anywhere in the world. However, like its Wi-Fi-only sibling, it was an iterative update, retaining the same design, display, and cameras as the M1 version. This meant it was a superb, top-of-the-line tablet for anyone new to the Pro line or upgrading from an older generation, but not a compelling reason for M1 users to switch. Its combination of raw power, professional features, and global connectivity kept it at the pinnacle of the tablet market.
