Absolutely. With the M1 chip, abundant RAM, stunning display, and Thunderbolt port for fast storage, this iPad Pro is very capable for professional video editing, especially when paired with compatible apps.
What does the LiDAR scanner do?
The LiDAR scanner measures the depth of space using light, enabling more immersive augmented reality (AR) experiences and improving autofocus and low-light performance for photos and videos.
How does 5G connectivity work on this iPad?
The iPad Pro 5th generation supports 5G networks. You'll need a 5G-compatible Nano-SIM or eSIM and a 5G data plan from your carrier to utilize 5G speeds for faster downloads, streaming, and browsing.

What is the battery life like?
The iPad Pro 5th generation offers all-day battery life, typically up to 10 hours of web surfing or video watching over Wi-Fi, and up to 9 hours when browsing on a cellular network.
