Apple's latest innovation, the M4 chip, powers the new iPad Pro. However, there's an important detail that many might miss. The 256GB and 512GB versions come with a slightly downgraded version of the M4 chip, featuring one fewer performance core for the CPU and half the RAM compared to the higher-end models. While this might not concern most users, it could impact performance, especially when running resource-intensive applications or connecting to an external display.
