Note that this Wi-Fi Only model does not support cellular connectivity or A-GPS.
The iPad Pro 12.9-Inch (Wi-Fi Only - 4th Gen) features a fully-laminated, antireflective 12.9" LED-backlit 2732x2048 "Liquid Retina" display (264 ppi, 600 nits) surrounded by a thin black bezel and packed in a slim case with rounded corners and flat sides. The back is offered in either silver or a darker "Space Gray" color.
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 assistance with machine learning and AR. It is equipped with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB of flash storage.
Other notable features include LiDAR and trackpad support via a new, optional "Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro" and third-party devices. Other features include "Face ID" authentication and support for the Apple Pencil 2nd Gen (A2051, MU8F2AM/A, US$129) that charges via a magnetic connection on the side of the device. It also has three cameras -- one 7 megapixel front-facing camera and dual rear cameras (12 megapixel wide angle and 10 megapixel ultra-wide angle).
In addition to USB-C, other connectivity includes dual-band 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) with HT80 with MIMO capability and Bluetooth 5.0. It has five microphones and a four speaker system, too.
The battery life of this iPad Pro model is reportedly 10 hours "surfing the web on Wi-Fi or watching video."
Compared to its predecessor, the iPad Pro 12.9-Inch (Wi-Fi Only - 4th Gen) -- and its cellular-equipped siblings -- are the same physical size and have the same display and similar internals, but add LiDAR support, an improved rear-camera system (ultra-wide angle camera), faster Wi-Fi, better microphones, and more entry-level storage.
