And I must say that having so much room to work with and such a beautiful display is a dream come true.

I was initially worried about stepping up to the biggest iPad – it is, after all, quite a large screen – but the iPad Pro is so thin and light that taking it with is no big deal. This touchscreen feels just perfect with the Apple Pencil 2 (which, remember, you must purchase separately), and is also perfectly anti-reflective, with no glare whatsoever except in direct sun (why don’t I move into the shade, you must wonder!), as well as fully laminated, light and strong.

I should also mention that the iPad Pro – and here, I also include the 11-inch model – has such a fast processor and such an ideally made work surface that the pen-to-screen experience and the flow and speed of images appearing on the screen as I work are second to none – always instantaneous and without any parallax, glitches or delays. I can work in greater detail, with more precision, and much stronger and more effective control over colors and gradients, light and shadow, and even composition and relationships.Įspecially important to me as an artist is color accuracy – and the iPad Pro is as good as it gets in this regard – but all of these factors are ultra-important to me and my work every day. This increase in visibility, accuracy, and expressiveness makes me work more confidently and with less strain and a more natural creative flow. I suspect that Apple’s XDR (extended dynamic range) technology – which only the iPad Pro has – is the reason behind the 12.9’s incredibly accurate screen. There is also more detail overall, sharpness, and depth that even the slightly smaller 11-inch iPad Pro can’t match. I have used many different art tablets, and possibly only one – the Wacom StudioPro – has a somewhat screen as good as iPad Pro!Ĭompared to the other iPads, the largest iPad Pro is brighter and much better at conveying subtle shifts in light and color. With its stunning XDR Liquid Retina display, supported by the powerful M1 processor (5th Generation), and an impeccable overall design, this is the best art tablet on the market today.Įdit 2023: If you want absolutely the newest tech to get M2 chip and use Apple Pencil hover feature, get the 2022 iPad Pro 12.9″ The iPad Pro 12.9″ is my personal choice and my most valuable art tool.
