WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.640
Actually, you know what? I changed my mind. I'm probably not going to buy this

00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:09.200
for your mom unless she is like super

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:18.000
super into running GPU intensive applications on her Apple mobile device

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:19.680
because this is the iPad Pro with M5.

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:26.560
See? And it is largely the same hardware-wise

00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:32.160
on the exterior anyway as the previous iPad Pro model, the iPad Pro M4. Once

00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:37.440
again, this is the M5. Before I look at the exterior of that iPad, though, and

00:00:35.680 --> 00:00:41.920
talk about how it's largely the same as the previous generation, what's in the

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:43.680
box? Let's find out what's in the We got

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:47.760
a cleaning cloth. I don't remember. Is this standard now? It's been actually a

00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:52.719
while since I unboxed an iPad Pro. Anyway, uh cuz Lionus has been doing

00:00:50.239 --> 00:00:57.199
those. So, that's nice. I can use that instead of my sweater, which I will

00:00:55.280 --> 00:01:02.719
absolutely forget to do and use my sweater instead. We got iPad Pro. iPad

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:05.360
Pro. iPad Pro. Do don't forget it's the

00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:10.080
iPad Pro. And instructions on how to use that cloth that I just uh so callously

00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:14.880
discarded. Oh, don't get it wet. That's the main thing. And also, don't get the

00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:20.720
iPad Pro wet because apparently iPads don't have IP ratings uh for water and

00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:24.000
dust resistance. So, uh just be careful.

00:01:20.720 --> 00:01:25.920
Uh, and then we got warranty and various

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:32.799
like the they make the text so small because they're like don't you don't

00:01:27.759 --> 00:01:37.079
have to read this. We got the USBC cable

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:37.079
which is a nice sleeved

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:43.439
sleeved cable that's about 3 and 1/2 ft.

00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:45.920
I'll call it maybe four. Someone's watching the video. They're like, is it

00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:53.119
three and a half or four? I need to know. And it does come with a 20 W power

00:01:49.759 --> 00:01:56.320
adapter. This will not get you the max

00:01:53.119 --> 00:01:58.640
fast charging benefits that the new iPad

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:03.040
has, but they're including it even if it is white and [music] not space black

00:02:00.479 --> 00:02:06.240
like the iPad. This This annoys me. I don't know why it annoys me. Apple,

00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:12.560
you're one of the most valuable companies in the world. Just Just make a

00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:14.160
black one. The environment. No. Correct

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:21.920
me if I'm wrong. If anything, black would help absorb more UV radiation so

00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:24.400
that it doesn't hit us. That's science.

00:02:21.920 --> 00:02:26.640
White reflects light and black absorbs it.

00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:29.680
>> But don't we want to reflect the light so it doesn't heat up anything so it

00:02:28.239 --> 00:02:33.920
goes back up into the >> No, we don't want to reflect it because then it bounces around in the atmosphere

00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:36.720
and warms up the planet. >> But I thought like having a bigger ice

00:02:35.519 --> 00:02:42.319
cap is a good thing cuz [music] it reflects so much of the light. >> Is that why? Or maybe it'll reflect it

00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:44.879
and send it back into space. But you're using these indoors most of the time.

00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:51.840
>> That you know, >> so inside >> that is fair. I really hope this stays

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:57.120
in the video. Okay, that's what's in the box. Let's look at the at the pad

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:03.120
itself. So, as I said, the exterior hardware design of the iPad Pro M5 is

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:08.879
the exact same as the iPad Pro M4. The M4 version got a design upgrade from the

00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:12.159
previous gen. This one is just getting the refreshed internals. So, I won't

00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:16.800
spend a ton of time going over the exterior. If you're interested, go look

00:03:13.920 --> 00:03:21.280
at the iPad Pro M4 video. But briefly, pogo pins on the back for accessories.

00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:28.400
12 megapixel camera up here with the LAR sensor and the 12 megapixel TrueDepth

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:32.239
camera on the top side, which is on the long side. In case you haven't checked

00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:35.200
in on iPads in a while, the cameras here are now not there. This was [music]

00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:40.480
years ago. It's been a while since I unboxed an iPod. On this side, we got

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:42.560
the power button and two speaker grills.

00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:47.280
On the opposite side, we have the other two speaker grills. All of those speaker

00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:52.239
grills have speakers in them, unlike the iPad Air, which only has two speakers,

00:03:49.920 --> 00:03:57.840
yet still has the four grills as a prank. USBC port here, which has some

00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:02.319
improvements, although maybe it's not so much the port itself as the what the

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:08.000
device is capable of. On this side, nothing except the antenna band. On this

00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:11.040
side, Apple Pencil Pro magnetic charging

00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:14.000
dock, volume buttons, and of course, the

00:04:11.040 --> 00:04:20.400
display. This is the 13-in model and we got the 1 TBTE version. So, we had the

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:24.320
option of adding the nanoexture glass

00:04:20.400 --> 00:04:28.240
display on top of the tandem OLED ultra

00:04:24.320 --> 00:04:30.400
retina XDR display. So, [music] no real

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:36.320
changes on the outside. We've got the Apple M5 inside, but that's not actually

00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:38.240
the only interesting upgrade that has

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:42.880
been included in this model. So, let's turn it on and check that out after this

00:04:40.960 --> 00:04:45.919
message from our sponsor. Thanks to SY for sponsoring this video. Hey, if

00:05:29.039 --> 00:05:36.479
powerful tablet on the planet? >> Yeah. Yeah.

00:05:34.080 --> 00:05:43.520
Who let who let the goblins in again? Okay. Wow. This is actually my first

00:05:39.039 --> 00:05:47.280
experience with the new iPad OS [music]

00:05:43.520 --> 00:05:50.000
26. Oh, don't look. So, I haven't really

00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:53.759
properly experienced the uh the liquid glass phenomenon that everyone was so

00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:58.240
upset about for a little bit and now it seems to everyone's just fine with. Oh.

00:05:55.600 --> 00:06:01.680
Oh. Oh. See, you can't you see that? It's kind of glassy. Half of you have

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:04.560
iPhones. You're probably like, "Okay, yeah." But it's too bright, isn't it?

00:06:03.529 --> 00:06:07.120
[music] Isn't it, Andrew? It's too bright for >> Oh, yes. Of course. A little bit too

00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:14.720
bright. Yeah. >> So, I'm going to turn down the uh brightness a little bit for Andrew. Just

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:15.919
a little bit. Does that feel better?

00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:21.120
>> Yes, sir. >> Did you know that this could this thing

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:24.560
could go up to a,000 nits uh normally

00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:28.240
and then 1,600 nits in peak brightness?

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:29.680
The Yeah, RIGHT NOW HE'S GOING, "WHAT?"

00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:35.680
ALTHOUGH THE Labs team noticed something interesting in their in their brightness test. I'll just tell you about it right

00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:37.919
up front. When auto brightness is off,

00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:42.880
they still noticed that the display would get a little bit brighter under an

00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:46.400
overhead light [music] as opposed to in darkness. What's up with that, Apple?

00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:51.199
Apparently, this is happening with other devices, too, from other manufacturers.

00:06:48.479 --> 00:06:54.000
It's not right. Stop it. Okay, but we didn't come to talk about the brightness

00:06:52.319 --> 00:07:01.520
that much. Let's talk about the M5. Okay, this thing has a 9 core CPU on the

00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:05.199
256 gig and 512 gig models and a 10 core

00:07:01.520 --> 00:07:07.680
CPU on the 1 TB and 2 TB models as well

00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:12.720
as a 10 core [music] GPU. Now, that's all the same as the M4. However, what's

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:19.440
different this time around is that there are neural accelerators. Those are new

00:07:15.919 --> 00:07:22.639
and they apparently add a lot more AI

00:07:19.440 --> 00:07:25.199
performance if you're using local AI

00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:29.440
applications on your iPad. I'm sure some of you are because otherwise why do they

00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:35.520
put so much power into this thing? The other change on the chipset side is that

00:07:31.599 --> 00:07:38.080
the base models 256 and 512 have 12 GB

00:07:35.520 --> 00:07:42.800
of RAM instead of 8 GB. Not that you would know going into the iPad OS

00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:46.479
settings because they still don't tell you how much RAM is on an iPad. I don't

00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:52.000
know why. It's because you're not supposed to worry about that. Okay, that's for Apple to worry about. You

00:07:49.599 --> 00:07:55.360
just you just use this beautiful device. You beautiful you beautiful idiot. Don't

00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:00.240
worry about it. >> Tim will take care of you and your mom.

00:07:57.919 --> 00:08:04.639
For the 1 TB and 2 TB models though, you're getting 16 gigs of RAM, which is

00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:11.360
the same as M4. However, it's faster. It's 153 GB per second instead of 120.

00:08:09.520 --> 00:08:15.440
The upgrades don't stop. Well, they do stop at the physical hardware. But

00:08:13.919 --> 00:08:22.560
another major upgrade you're getting is going from Bluetooth 5.3 to Bluetooth 6

00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:24.720
and Wi-Fi 6E to Wi-Fi 7. So, what is

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:31.120
that new internal hardware mean in terms of performance? Well, our Labs team did

00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:33.440
their testing magic and we have results.

00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:39.519
We get results. So, in Geekbench, the Labs team found an 11% increase over the

00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:41.200
M4 in single core and 10% increase in

00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:47.279
multi-core. That guy loves multiore. But the M5's

00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:50.640
GPU got a 19% boost in 3D Mark Steel

00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:54.399
Nomad Light. And in the 3D Mark Wildlife

00:08:50.640 --> 00:08:56.959
Extreme Stress test, uh, we got a 13%

00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:01.120
average boost over the M4. Although there were better and worse runs. You

00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:06.480
know, everyone has different It just felt different on some days. I'm having

00:09:03.760 --> 00:09:09.839
a good day. By the way, [laughter] I just wanted to say this is weird for

00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:13.680
me to run. I've actually I've never actually played a benchmark. Wow. What

00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:19.040
are those? I've never actually played a benchmark like this on an iPad before.

00:09:16.800 --> 00:09:23.920
And it's weird because I'm remembering my old PC benchmarking days at NCIX.

00:09:21.996 --> 00:09:28.080
[music] And you played a benchmark like this and the all the fans in the in the

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:33.120
building would actually spin up. It was just trying so hard. But this is like

00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:37.600
it's just a reminder that the Apple silicon chips in general are just

00:09:35.920 --> 00:09:42.080
they're just amazing. I mean, say what you will about Apple, okay? I make fun

00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:47.120
of them a lot, but this thing is thin as hell. The previous one was too, but like

00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:50.800
it's kind of crazy that we have devices that are this thin. The, you know, the

00:09:48.800 --> 00:09:54.240
whole like computing, a single slab of glass that does all your computing. You

00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:59.760
could argue we're there. Okay, back to the tablet. Um, now another truly

00:09:56.800 --> 00:10:06.640
notable change in the iPad Pro M5 versus the previous gen is the battery. It's

00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:09.040
actually the exact same capacity, but it

00:10:06.640 --> 00:10:16.399
can both charge faster and last longer. What in Lab's battery

00:10:13.839 --> 00:10:22.560
test, uh, this thing lasted an hour and 15 minutes longer than the M4 version.

00:10:19.040 --> 00:10:24.959
15 hours and 46 minutes to be exact,

00:10:22.560 --> 00:10:28.079
which is a long time to use an [music] iPad. I mean, maybe you're using it

00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:32.800
while you're walking around outside. Maybe you're Pokémon Going all over the

00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:37.360
place. I'm going to I'm going to Pokémon Go all

00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:38.880
over the place. Still a popular game.

00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:44.399
And this thing was able to charge its 10,290 milliampour battery in 2 hours

00:10:42.640 --> 00:10:50.079
and 7 minutes, which is 20 minutes faster than the M4 version did using the

00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:53.760
lab's standard 45 watt charger test. Now, as I said before, this thing comes

00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:58.560
with a 20 watt charger in the box. So, you can expect it to take longer to

00:10:55.519 --> 00:11:00.480
charge using that adapter. However, if

00:10:58.560 --> 00:11:07.279
you're fine with just a 50% charge, Apple says that with their official

00:11:04.560 --> 00:11:12.959
amazingly named I need to read I need to look at the title. 40 watt dynamic power

00:11:09.680 --> 00:11:15.680
adapter with 60 watts max power adapter.

00:11:12.959 --> 00:11:20.320
You could get to 50% in 30 to 35 minutes. And in our test with our 45

00:11:18.160 --> 00:11:26.560
watt charger, that's not that it has a less cool name. Uh we still got to 50%

00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:27.680
in 37 minutes. So Apple didn't lie a

00:11:26.560 --> 00:11:32.399
little bit. Just a little bit. 2 minutes of lie. Okay, let's use the iPad for

00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:36.880
what God intended it for and play Crab Rave so we can check out the visuals and

00:11:34.880 --> 00:11:40.959
the speakers. Wow, look at that. I I mean, I guess I

00:11:38.800 --> 00:11:47.680
can kind of see whether what you can't zoom in the Is it the It's an iOS app

00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:49.680
thing. There's still You know, I before

00:11:47.680 --> 00:11:55.680
I'll just say this. Apple, just get your head out of your ass. Like, why we can

00:11:51.680 --> 00:11:57.200
zoom on on YouTube on Windows and

00:11:55.680 --> 00:12:00.000
Android? I mean, maybe that's Google. Maybe that's Google. It could be Google.

00:11:58.800 --> 00:12:07.713
Google get your head out of your ass, too. Everyone just get heads [laughter]

00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:09.600
out of Asis generally. Okay. Crab.

00:12:07.713 --> 00:12:13.600
[music] As is usually the case with uh iPads.

00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:18.160
The speakers are great, especially on the iPad Pro, but they're even usually

00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:22.160
great on the iPad Air. I, you know, as much as I criticize Apple, there's a fit

00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:26.959
and finish on these devices that is just not there on anything else. And thank

00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:32.000
you. Thank you for making Crab Rave a transcendent experience every time. Oh,

00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:36.639
we didn't test the camera. Whoa. Whoa. As usual, this is always a bit of a

00:12:34.079 --> 00:12:39.440
crazy experience. Like, this is this is nausea inducing a little bit. Not for

00:12:38.160 --> 00:12:43.040
me. For you. >> Oh, look at this. >> What kind of pick is he taking?

00:12:42.428 --> 00:12:48.480
[laughter] >> Selfie. >> That's a photo. I mean, even even the

00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:53.200
even the dinky little iPad cameras are taking pretty nice photos these days.

00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:58.639
And here's video. You're never going to be taking video like this

00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:04.079
>> ever. >> Show up with the most powerful tablet on

00:13:00.880 --> 00:13:06.639
the planet to record obnoxious video at

00:13:04.079 --> 00:13:12.639
your friend's wedding. Oh, that's cute. What about the selfie camera?

00:13:10.160 --> 00:13:16.079
Damn. So, that was a that was a bit of a fake reaction, but it was also real.

00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:20.480
Like, I think [snorts] again, Apple, you know how to do it.

00:13:18.800 --> 00:13:25.760
It's also maybe just because it's a no, it's a nice camera. So, despite the kind

00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:31.120
of deceptively hidden internal hardware upgrade here, uh Apple is keeping the

00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:36.560
prices for all of the storage tiers the exact same as the previous generation,

00:13:32.800 --> 00:13:39.839
starting at $1,300 for the 256 gig

00:13:36.560 --> 00:13:42.160
version and going up to $2300

00:13:39.839 --> 00:13:46.240
for the two TB version. And you can add the nano texture glass for another 100

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:51.200
bucks on the 1 TB and 2 TB if you so desire. This is that's a lot of money

00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:54.560
for a tablet. But I didn't even talk about, you know, the new windowing

00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:57.760
features that they have because they've announced those a while ago. I almost

00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.519
want to do a whole another video on that cuz this could be a this I feel like

00:13:59.680 --> 00:14:05.680
we're at the point where this could be your computer. I just want to try that

00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:12.320
out and prove it. I just want to prove it. So, there you have it, guys. The

00:14:07.680 --> 00:14:14.399
iPad Pro M5. It is sleek. It is

00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:18.639
powerful. It looks the exact same as the previous generation. And if you have an

00:14:15.839 --> 00:14:23.440
M4 version of the iPad Pro, please do not. Why? I mean, you can sell it and

00:14:21.680 --> 00:14:29.519
buy it if you want to. It's just extra work. The point is, this is the new

00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:32.079
flagship of tablets, not just Apple's

00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:36.560
tablets. The M5 and Apple Silicon in general. I won't use my sweater. Don't

00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:41.920
use a sweater. Continues to impress. And I'll always love Tim Cook for that.

00:14:40.560 --> 00:14:46.800
It's the best tablet. I don't know what you want me to say. Subscribe to Short
