Autodesk graphic ipad pro review2/27/2023 ![]() ![]() This tech works well on the iPhone and I can't see it being any different on the iPad Pro - with one design flaw. Instead of your finger, you use FaceID unlock your iPad. Even in the brief time I spent with the new iPad Pros, I reached instinctively for the home button without thinking. If you own an iPhone X or newer, you'll be familiar with these - but as with these phones, it takes a while to build up the muscle memory. ![]() The lack of a home button means current iPad users will have to learn a new set of gestures if they upgrade to one of the new models. However, when looking at the same artworks, photos and videos on the new and old model, we couldn’t spot any difference. The display certainly looks the business - bright and bold with subtle gradation between shades in artwork, photos and video. The screens have a new design, being based on the same 'Liquid Retina' display as Apple's 'budget, but in the sense of I've got a large budget for a phone but not enough for an XS' handset the iPhone XR. Last year's 12.9-inch iPad Pro ( left) next to the new model ( right). It no longer feels much less portable than the smaller version and the only choice between the two models is how you feel about spending £200 on 1.9-inches of extra screen. The 12.9-inch is also smaller than its predecessor, this time the 2,732 x 2,048-resolution screen remains the same and the shrinkage is all due to the lack of bezel. The new 11-inch iPad Pro ( left) next to last year's 10.5-inch version ( right). The 11-inch iPad's resolution is about the same as the 10.5-inch model - it's just 164 pixels wider at 2,388 x 1,688. Placed next to my 10.5-inch iPad here at a hands-on session following the launch last Tuesday, you can see that without the bezel the new 11-inch model is smaller overall than the model it essentially replaces. The smaller 'iPad Pro 2018' has an 11-inch screen, up a little from last year's, still-available 10.5-inch model. And they're still both incredibly light in the hand, being comfortable to hold for extended periods and move around as you sketch, draw or paint. The top and bottom bezels (and home button) have disappeared so that they're barely any larger than their screens. They're thinner by half a millimetre and less curved at the back for a look that reminds me of the old iPhone 5. I’ll review each of those in turn after considering the new iPad.īoth look and feel quite different to 2017's models. There’s also a new Pencil – which is as much something to delight in as the new iPad Pro itself – and a redesigned keyboard. I’ve been testing the 12.9-inch model, but as spent some time with the 11-inch model at a hands-on event directly after the launch. So have illustrators including lettering artist Ian Barnard and concept artist Rob McCallum, who give us their thoughts later in this review. Check! You might already have access to it.The new iPad Pro is smaller, much more powerful and features a sleek new design – but it's the new Pencil that will make the most difference to your life.įollowing Apple’s launch last week in New York, I’ve spent over a week with the brand new iPad Pro, testing it with a wide range of professional-level art and design apps from Procreate to Affinity Designer. It’s $10 a month, but if you already use other Adobe products, it’s included in several bundles. Fresco is the most expensive app on this list, though. Adobe has also added new raster brush sets, for everything from sketching to inking and full-fledged illustration. You can control the spread and fluidity of watercolors, and even use the oil brushes to mix your own colors just like you would on a traditional palette. The “live brushes,” which approximate the physics of real-world watercolor and oil painting, have become much more than a gimmick. ![]() It came out in 2019, so it has several updates under its belt and it’s only getting better. That design sensibility has made for a surprisingly robust and flexible application. If you’ve ever used Photoshop, the interface will be clear and familiar, but it's also a touch-first user interface, not one that was designed for a mouse. Fresco is the latest software suite from the company, and it was built from the ground up with the iPad Pro in mind. Adobe has been synonymous with professional graphic design and illustration for decades. ![]()
