I’ve been testing the iPad Pro M5 for a week to see what really matters beyond the spec sheet. In this review, I dive into real-world performance differences between the M5 and M4 iPad Pro, explore how iPadOS 26 changes the experience, and test creative workflows in Procreate, Final Cut Pro, and more. I’ll help you figure out whether upgrading makes sense for your specific use case, what improvements actually impact daily use, and which spec bumps are just marketing hype. This is my honest assessment after putting the 11-inch iPad Pro M5 through its paces.
