<p><span class="minor2 small gray">The 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pros</span></div>
<h2>Specs and features</h2>
<p>One of the most common questions we receive ask if there is any difference in specs or performance between, say, the entry-level 11-inch <a href="https://appleinsider.com/inside/ipad-pro">iPad Pro</a> and the maxed-out 12.9-inch iPad Pro. We are happy to say that no, there is absolutely no difference and you won’t be losing out on any performance by going for the smaller 11-inch iPad Pro over the 12.9.</p>
<p>[embedded content]</p>
<p>Between the two, the processors, internals, and other specifications are exactly the same, with the only difference being the larger display. The 11-inch has a 2388-by-1668 display at 264 pixels per inch while the 12.9-inch comes in at 2732-by-2048 at the same pixel density. </p>
<p>That means you don’t get a better display either, just a larger one, by going with the 12.9-inch.</p>
<p>Both devices run the same software and have the same accessories. They both work with the second-generation Apple Pencil and can be connected to the Smart Keyboard Folio or upcoming Magic Keyboard.</p>
<h2>Keyboards</h2>
<p>Speaking of keyboards, if you do a significant amount of typing on your iPad Pro, the 12.9-inch is a far better option for two distinct reasons.</p>
<div align="center">
<div class="article-img"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro.jpg" alt="On-screen keyboard displayed on the 11-inch (left) and 12.9-inch (right) iPad Pros" height="372" class="lazy" data-original="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro-2.jpg"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro-2.jpg"></div>
<p><span class="minor2 small gray">On-screen keyboard displayed on the 11-inch (left) and 12.9-inch (right) iPad Pros</span></div>
<p>The first is the on-screen keyboard. Going from the 11-inch to the 12.9, the keyboard covers up far less of the display. Depending on the app, you can get far less usable space on the 11-inch model. The 12.9-inch takes up less than half the screen while the 11-inch is more than half the screen.</p>
<p>Then there’s the physical Smart Keyboard Folio.</p>

<p><span class="minor2 small gray">Comparing the Mac’s Magic Keyboard to the iPad Pro’s 12.9-inch Smart Keyboard Folio</span></div>
<p>With this, the 12.9-inch has a full-sized keyboard. Comparing it to our Mac’s keyboard, they are the same size. This makes a world of difference when you move between a desktop or laptop and your iPad Pro. Your fingers gain a sense of muscle memory and when the keyboard keeps changing sizes, your fingers trip up and you make more mistakes.</p>
<p>The 11-inch iPad Pro has a compressed keyboard and doesn’t align with how your fingers were trained. It is still a solid keyboard, but requires your fingers to “relearn” the key placement each time.</p>
<h2>Multitasking</h2>
<div align="center">
<div class="article-img"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro.jpg" alt="An 11-inch (left) and 12.9-inch (right) iPad Pro with two apps in split view, one app in slider over, and a movie playing in PiP" height="372" class="lazy" data-original="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro-4.jpg"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/comparing-the-11-inch-versus-12-9-inch-2020-ipad-pro-4.jpg"></div>
<p><span class="minor2 small gray">An 11-inch (left) and 12.9-inch (right) iPad Pro with two apps in split view, one app in slider over, and a movie playing in PiP</span></div>
<p>Another significant differentiator is multitasking, as a lot of users don’t take full advantage of the multitasking abilities iPad Pro has. At the same time, you can open two apps side-by-side in split view, bring in another via slide over, and watch a movie in picture-in-picture.</p>
<p>If you do that on both displays, there is a stark contrast regarding what you can see. The 11-inch iPad Pro has very little usable space —even less if you tried to open up the keyboard to type.</p>
<p>The 12.9-inch, on the other hand, has plenty of space and is easy to write on while looking at a source, while monitoring your Twitter feed, while the news is playing in the background, or whatever your second task happens to be. It is a lot going on, but is manageable on the larger display.</p>
<h2>Portability</h2>
<p>A larger screen may inherently lend itself to more productivity, but it is hard to beat the compact size of the 11-inch. The 11-inch is a true workhorse in a small body and if you tote it around frequently, the 11-inch size may be the way to go.</p>
<p>We’ve been steadfast users of the 12.9-inch due to multitasking capabilities and the necessary space for video editing, but spending a few days again using the 11-inch has made us love that more compact size. Icons are a bit smaller —which is good if you like fitting more onto a smaller display but bad if you have problems with your eyes.</p>
<p>The 11-inch iPad Pro is not only the most powerful iPad, but it is the physically smallest other than the iPad mini. That is a great tradeoff if you want both power and portability.</p>
<p>We also prefer the 11-inch when it comes to media consumption. It is lighter and more comfortable to hold for long bouts of time while reading, playing games, or kicking back to watch a video.</p>

<p><span class="minor2 small gray">Reading on the iPad Pro</span></div>
<p>In the end, it is hard for us to with any degree of certainty recommend one over the other. We are fond of the 12.9-inch for its display and production values but love how easy the 11-inch is to carry around. </p>
<p>If you fall into one camp over another, hopefully the decision is easy for you when picking up your new tablet.</p>
