Apple defines its restrictions on harmful substances, including definitions for what Apple considers to be “free of,” in the Apple Regulated Substances Specification. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates with the exception of AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement.

An almighty beast of a tablet, that becomes more niche as it gets more powerful and expensive

The USB-C slot on the new iPad Pro is the first from the company to also support Thunderbolt connections. That means increased speed – Apple claims up to four times the speed – and it also means a whole host of high-performance devices can be connected to your iPad. Built-in accessibility features supporting vision, mobility, hearing, and cognitive disabilities help you get the most out of your iPad.

On one of the shorter edges is a USB-C port for charging, plus two dotted vents for the stereo speakers. The new iPad Pro comes with iPadOS 16.1 – my review unit had the final release candidate version, so sported the full version of features, including Stage Manager.
