News & Reviews:   ipad m1

As advertised, Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Mirage has made its way to the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max and M1 iPads (and above). For a limited time, there is a 50% discount offer for the game until 20 June 2024. It's currently priced at RM99.90, so at 50%, that's only RM49.95.

The recently held WWDC 2022 event by Apple introduced a lot of new features and improvements for iPhones and iPads via iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 respectively. For the latter, among the most notable addition has got to be the ‘Stage Manager’ feature which allows users to resize apps into overlapping windows, a feature similarly found on new macOS Ventura.

While this new addition makes the iPad one step closer to being a computer replacement in terms of software, it seems that only iPads that are powered by the M1 SoC will have the privilege to get the feature. This is because Apple has clarified that iPads that run on its mobile A-series bionic chips will not get Stage Manager, which includes the iPad Pro 2020 which is only 2 years old.

Besides the iPhone SE, Apple also brought back the iPad Air and its last appearance was two years ago. The new iPad Air 2022 edition is much more powerful than before because it's not using an A-series Bionic chipset like before, but rather, an M1 chipset from the recent Mac series!

Besides the latest iPhone 13 series, the Apple iPad and iPad Mini are finally launching in Malaysia too. As a reminder, the new tablets cost starting from RM1499 and RM2299 respectively, and you may visit the nearest authorised Apple reseller stores or Apple Malaysia website here.

Today, Apple has officially announced the new iPad, and, after 4 long years, the iPad Mini, starting from the price of RM1499 and  RM2299 respectively. The new iPads come equipped with various new features including the second-generation Apple Pencil, USB Type-C port, and the new iPadOS.

Late last month, the new Apple M1-powered iPad Pro was announced for Malaysia. Like its laptop counterpart, the new chipset was expected to bring some serious performance gains to Apple's tablet. But how much of an improvement are we talking about?

Other than the iMac, Apple also unveiled the new iPad Pro which starts from the price of RM3499 for the 11-inch variant while the 12.9-inch starts from RM4799. The iPads will be purchasable via Apple’s official website, Apple Store App, or via any authorized Apple dealers located across Malaysia. 

It seems that Apple’s iPad 8th-Gen is now officially available for purchase on Apple Malaysia’s official website, or authorized dealers from today onwards from the price of RM1449 and RM1849 for the 32GB and 128GB Wi-Fi variant respectively. As for the variant with cellular connectivity, it is priced at RM1999 and RM2399 for the 32GB and 128GB respectively.

Today, apart from announcing the latest Apple Watch Series 6 and Watch SE, Apple also announced the iPad lineup. As speculated, the revamped iPad Air (2020) was introduced and so as the iPad 8th-Gen with new tech specs and features. No availability for the Malaysian market yet but the official prices are starting from RM2599 and RM1449 respectively.

Back in March, Apple announced their latest iPad Pro silently and it was finally launched in Malaysia a few days ago starting from RM3499. Knowing Apple, the Magic Keyboard for the new iPad Pro won't be included and it's sold separately alongside the Apple Pencil. Despite that, the price tag for the keyboard has been revealed just hours after the new iPhone SE announcement, which starts from RM1349.
