GoSolo Read / what it means6 takeaways
display
12.9-inch, 120Hz, 600 nitsThe 120Hz refresh keeps scrolling through documents and sketching smooth, and 600 nits is bright enough for indoor work, though direct sunlight will still wash it out.
performance
A12Z Bionic, 8-core GPUThe A12Z handles video editing, design apps, and multitasking without lag, though it is a 2020 chip and newer models with the M1 now outpace it for heavy rendering.
camera
12MP main, 10MP ultrawide, LiDARThe 12MP sensor and ultrawide cover wide group shots and documents, while the LiDAR scanner helps apps measure depth and objects in the room, but this is still a tablet camera, not a replacement for a phone.
battery
9720 mAh, roughly 10 to 12 hours screen-onOn a single charge, you can expect about a full day of mixed use (reading, some video, apps), though heavy video editing or drawing will shorten that.
storage
6GB RAM, up to 1TB storage6GB is standard for iPad Pro of this era and handles most workflows; storage tiers from 128GB to 1TB let you hold large video files or creative libraries locally.
connectivity
Wi-Fi 6, LTE with GPSWi-Fi 6 is fast for a tablet from 2020, and the cellular model adds LTE and full positioning (GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO) for field work without needing a phone.
