If you’d prefer an even more portable experience than a laptop but with plenty of power, then an Apple iPad Pro 12.9-inch is a great option. It utilizes an A12Z Bionic chip processor which means it’s super-speedy no matter how much you’re multi-tasking. A 12.9-inch edge-to-edge Liquid Retina display with ProMotion, True Tone, and P3 wide color looks gorgeous and is great if you need to look at your screen for extended periods of time. 128GB of storage should be fine for most users with a 12MP wide camera, 10MP Ultra-Wide camera, and LiDAR scanner proving useful as and when you need to take some snaps. There’s a 7MP TrueDepth front camera for video calls, too. An up to 10-hour battery life means you won’t have to worry about recharging this iPad Pro during a busy day either. You can even turn it into a hybrid laptop with an optional Magic Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio accessory.

Amazon quietly upgrades its Fire HD 10 tablet with a whopping 1GB of RAM
Amazon really said, "Here's 1GB. You're welcome."
Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet

Amazon has quietly refreshed one of its most popular tablets, but not in the way many expected. Instead of launching a brand-new Fire tablet after its longest product drought in years, the company has introduced a slightly upgraded version of the existing Fire HD 10 with an extra gigabyte of RAM.

The update is modest on paper, yet it arrives at an interesting time. Amazon hasn't introduced a new Fire tablet since the Fire HD 8 refresh in 2024, while products like the Fire 7 and Fire Max 11 have yet to receive successors. Rather than expanding its lineup, Amazon appears to be extending the life of an aging device with a minor hardware tweak.
