r/iPadPro on Reddit: It's nearly 2025. Is the 2021 iPad Pro with the M1 chip STILL worth it?
December 26, 2024 -

So I really want an iPad since I broke my tablet a few years ago and I really miss having a tablet. So I did some research, and figured the best iPad for me would be the M1 iPad Pro, if it wasn't for the M Series chip I would've went even lower, but I would like to have the apple intelligence features. So, for gaming, school and some AI here and there, is this the right choice?

(note: should I get refurbished or used?)

iPad Pro M1 2021 - Genshin Impact FPS re-test with Update 1.6. Max Resolution is now 1600p!!

After 1.6 I experience random major frame drops on my M1 iPad, don't you have that sometimes too? In domains it happens more often

It helps to set the render resolution lower, but it's kinda sad having such top of the end device and playing on low res

Is it supposed to look so bad on 2021 M1 iPad pro with max settings?
If we compare it to pc then it's no match But if we compare it with other mmorpg games in mobile, this one stands out the most. This is currently the best I've seen on mobile. More on reddit.com

May 19, 2021 - The Anandtech article on the M1 CPU architecture is an even deeper dive. Then there are the business advantages that come from vertical integration of software and hardware, not having to support decades of legacy x86 code and customers, and profit margins well in excess above some of the products that use Intel CPUs. Feel free to expand this list. ... And… Apple still needs to fix multitasking on the iPad, IMO.
