Let Loose
We discussed Apple’s announcements from their “Let Loose” event held on the 7th of May:
- iPad Air with M2 chip.
- iPad Pro with M4 chip and tandem OLED display.
- Apple Pencil Pro. Note that this is only compatible with the new iPad models introduced at the event. Check the Apple Pencil shop page for compatibility information.

There are lots of detailed differences between the iPad and Apple Pencil models. Apple have useful comparison charts for both the iPad and on the Apple Pencil page.
