This week has been the new iPhone SE of 2020, but a couple of weeks ago Apple launched the new iPad Pro, the device that wants to be a successor to the laptops that we have known throughout history. An iPad that even came for the first time with a two-camera module that was joined by a new LIDAR sensor that offers us endless possibilities in the face of augmented reality. But you do not stay iPad Pro cameras are not comparable to those we see in the iPhone 11, forget about taking pictures with an iPad Pro (if you can) ...
The analysis has been done by the boys of Halide, according to these if we want compare the cameras of the iPad Pro with those of another Apple device we should go to the cameras of the iPhone 8 (which are not bad at all), the iPad Pro with the LIDAR sensor camera module is far from the quality of the iPhone 11 camera module. Taking a deep look at the cameras, the ultra-wide angle of the iPad Pro is equivalent to a 14mm lens (compared to the 13mm of the iPhone 11), and even the sensor is 10MP compared to the 12MP of the iPhone 11, a sensor that practically gives us the same results as the 8MP of the iPhone 6 by offering images with a maximum of 3680 x 2760 pixels.
Everything must be said, this is not bad news, obviously not good news, simply denotes the use for which an iPad is designed, and no, an iPad is not intended to take pictures even if they sell us their cameras. The new camera module with the LIDAR sensor is designed to be used by applications so that they can take full advantage of the new sensor. In short, let's not be alarmed because the cameras of this new iPad Pro are worse and let's see the positive part, Apple has wanted to bring us a new device with great innovations designed for a new use such as this new LIDAR radar with which we will improve the experience of augmented reality offered by the new iPad Pro.
Is that who would think of taking photos with a tablet? Does anyone in their right mind go out to take photos with a 13 ″ tablet?
