<p> <span><span class="article-leader">Code discovered in the gold master of iOS 13.4 reveals each of Apple’s new iPad Pro models, released on Wednesday, boast 6GB of RAM and the company’s U1 Ultra Wideband chip, the latter of which could be used to locate rumored “AirTag” device trackers.<br /></span></p>

<p>Code spelunking performed by <em>9to5Mac</em> shows all versions of the new 2020 iPad Pro get identical <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2020/03/18/all-2020-ipad-pro-models-feature-6gb-of-ram-same-u1-chip-as-iphone-11/">6GB allotments</a> of system memory, 2GB more than all but the highest tier 1TB configuration of <a href="https://appleinsider.com/inside/12.9-inch-ipad-pro">2018’s iPad Pro</a>.</p>
<p>The additional RAM will assist iPad Pro’s new A12Z processor chew through critical tasks and should allow more apps or browser tabs to be open simultaneously in the background. </p>
<p>Not much is known about Apple’s A12Z processor beyond its 64-bit architecture and 8-core graphics capabilities, but Apple claims the chip outpaces most laptop PCs available today. </p>
<p>Beyond memory, <a href="https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/03/18/apple-releases-sixth-betas-of-macos-10154-ios-134-ipados-134-watchos-134-tvos-134">iOS 13.4</a> code reveals the fourth-generation iPad Pro integrates Apple’s <a href="https://appleinsider.com/articles/19/09/10/heres-what-apples-new-u1-chip-in-the-iphone-11-iphone-11-pro-does">U1 Ultra Wideband chip</a>. The company fails to mention U1 support in documentation released today as part of the hardware announcement, but it can be assumed that the tablet will include features similar to iPhone 11.</p>
<p>Introduced in 2019 with <a href="https://appleinsider.com/inside/iphone-11">iPhone 11</a> and <a href="https://appleinsider.com/inside/iphone-11-pro">iPhone 11 Pro</a>, the U1 chip uses UWB technology for spatial awareness as it applies to other similarly equipped devices. For example, iPhone 11 can precisely determine its location relative to another nearby iPhone 11 or, as revealed today, 2020 iPad Pro. </p>
<p>Currently, the U1 is limited to prioritizing AirDrop recipients (accomplished by pointing an iPhone 11 to another iPhone 11 or 11 Pro), but that is expected to change in the near future. Apple is rumored to release a <a href="https://appleinsider.com/articles/19/08/30/apples-wireless-tile-like-tracking-technology-exposed-in-ios-13-build">Tile-like tracker</a> that is a shoo-in for UWB integration. </p>
