Apple’s M4 iPad Pro offers stellar, high-performance hardware handicapped by iPadOS

[CNBC]: Apple’s new iPad Pro 2024 ships with an absolutely beautiful Tandem OLED display and powerful new M4 processor. It’s super thin and noticeably lighter than earlier iPads, but it cries out for a better iPadOS operating system.

The new iPad Pro is fast, with the latest M4 chip, and it has a new OLED display that’s more colorful than prior screens. It’s the thinnest product Apple has ever launched.

But it still runs the same iPad software, and that’s starting to feel dated… It’s time Apple makes this more than just an iPad. The software, called iPadOS, needs to catch up to the hardware.

My guess is Apple has something big planned for next month’s Worldwide Developers Conference, and I hope it addresses this. I probably won’t get my wish, but I’d love to see the iPad Pro act just like a Mac. Plop it into the keyboard and it turns into a touchscreen MacBook. Lift it off and use it like a regular iPad. It has a newer processor than Apple’s MacBooks, so this should be possible if it’s something Apple wants. Regardless, we need better multitasking.
