iPad Pro (2018): Key Specifications and Price
iPad Pro (2018)

Apple Inc. has officially announced sequels to its iPad line of tablets. The unveiling of the 2018 models of the iPad Pro took place on October 30 at an event in Brooklyn New York. The newly introduced Apple flagship tablets come with powerful internals, redefined externals, and improved (but quite pricey) accessories that easily puts it on top of the chart in the midst of other convertible and productive tablets.

iPad Pro (2018)

Apple totally impressed a good number of users and fanboys by improving on some aspects of the iPad Pro, particularly in the design and display department. However, there exists some rather shocking teardown Apple made on new iPad Pro (2018) that night take some getting used to.

iPad Pro (2018) Key Specifications Display — 11-inch or 12.5-inch Liquid Retina display Dimension — 247.6mm x 178.5mm x 5.9mm (11-inch) or 280.6mm x 214.9mm x 5.9mm. Colors — Silver or Space Gray-colored aluminum CPU — A12X Bionic 64-bit CPU with Neural Engine and embedded M12 coprocessor Rear camera — 12-megapixel camera with f/1.8 aperture and Quad-LED True Tone flash Front-facing camera — 7-megapixel TrueDepth camera with support for Face ID, Animoji, and Memoji Sensors — Face ID, Three-axis gyro, Accelerometer, Barometer, and Ambient light sensor Battery — 29.37-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery (11-inch model), 36.71-watt-hour lithium polymer battery (12-inch model). Design

Compared to the iPad Pro of 2017, the new iPad Pro have been completely overhauled in this aspect; a number of additions and subtractions have been made.

Quad-LED True Tone flash

About subtractions, the infamous home button and Touch ID fingerprint sensor synonymous to Apple’s iPads have been stripped away. Apple began doing away with the Touch ID on its products with the iPhone X. Now, Apple is replicating the move on its tablet line of products. For core iPad users who have used previous models of the tablet for years and grown attachment to the physical Touch ID/home button, navigating the new iPad using gestures might take some time to get adapted to.

 

Still on subtractions, the iPad Pro (2018) uses a USB-C port for charging and file transfer purposes in the place of the lightning port used on previous iPad models. For Apple, the USB-C port was more of a productivity addition rather than an aesthetic-induced addition to the new iPad Pro. Creatives will now be able to connect accessories like DSLRs, an external monitor, and other USB-C accessories.

iPad Pro (2018)

The USB-C addition also prompted Apple to axe the 3.5mm headphone jack. This will make the iPad Pro (2018) the first iPad to lack the traditional headphone jack. The removal of the port is also considered as a move to make the iPad slimmer.

iPad Pro (2018)

On the right-hand side of the device is the connector for the Apple Pencil which allows the stylus now attach magnetically to the tablet. The tablet has also been redesigned to have flat and straightened sides, unlike the curved sides and edges of older iPad models. There are four speakers for crisp audio quality when playing music or Netflix video s, and five microphones for improved (group) FaceTime quality.

Display

The iPad Pro (2018) comes in two display sizes.

Apple adopted the Liquid Retina display it used on the iPhone XR. The 11-inch screen is fully laminated, has a resolution of 2388 x 1668 pixels, 600 nits and is oleophobic coated which makes it resistant to fingerprint.

12.5-inch iPad Pro (2018)

This model also comes with a Liquid Retina display with ProMotion technology and but has a bigger size of 12.5-inch and better display quality — 2732 x 2048 pixels at 264 pixels per inch (ppi) density. This display is also anti-reflective and resistant to fingerprint smears.

How to Create a Picture Meme with Filmora Meme Maker

Of course, the very beginning of creating a meme is to find the image you want to use. One thing to keep at the back of your mind when choosing a photo for a meme is that memes are used for humour and fun.

For this review, I will be using this image.

Photot for Meme

It is a photo of a happy boy holding some money.

Creating an image meme with the Filmora Meme Maker is very easy, just visit the site, click here.

Filmora Meme Maker

Then I will upload the image of the boy which I downloaded to my Laptop. Note that I could have chosen to enter the image URL directly.

Once you upload the image, you will be given the option to crop the image. You can select the entire image or crop-out any part you do not need.

Filmora Meme Maker

I will be cropping out the excess above the boy’s head. I will also crop-out the legs.

Once you are done with cropping, clicking the OK button takes you to the meme editor interface, where you can now customise the look of the meme.

Filmora Meme maker Editor

The Filmora Meme Maker Editor is divided into three sections.

The first is Enter Your Text: this is where you enter the text caption that will go with the meme. You also choose whether you want the text inside the image or outside.

The second section (Text Options) is where you format the text. You can edit the text size, text font, text alignment, and text colour. You can also bold the text in this section.

The final section (Choose File Type) is where you choose the file format you want the meme to be downloaded in.

Now let us go over the three section one after the other as we create our meme.

1. Enter your Text

You have two options here, which are provided via the two tabs labeled. Text Inside and Text Outside.

The Text Inside tab is the default and enables you add your caption within the image.

It comes with a Top and Bottom inside text, but you can add text anywhere within the image by using the Add Text Box button.

For this review, I will use the Text Outside tab, because I just want to create a simple meme without writing anything on the image. This is also why I tightly cropped the image from top and bottom.

However, before switching tabs, I have to delete the two boxes to remove the default text written on the image.

Filmora Meme Maker

As you can see from the image above, the inside text are now gone, but two text boxes have been appended to the photo: one on the top, the other on the bottom.

You can also see in the tools area, the boxes for editing the top and bottom text and buttons for choosing the background you want the text in.

The Filmora Meme Maker allows you choose between white and black background with the default being white background.

For my meme I will only use the top text box. So, I will delete the bottom text by deleting the ADD BOTTOM TEXT text.

Then I will use the text: Me when I See a Great Deal on Black Friday as my caption.

Now let us see what we have so far:

Now, I will add a black background, because I think it will look better.

Filmora Meme Maker

Now, doesn’t that look better. I have done all I can with the first section of the Filmora Meme Maker Editor. Now let me go into the second section.

2. Text Options

In this section of the Filmora Meme Maker, you can change the text style (font) and font size. You can also make the text bold or change the colour.

The final options are the text alignment. The default is centre, but you can also align the text left or right.

I will be minimalist here. I will just make the text bold.

Now, let us see what we have

Filmora Meme Maker

I am done here. It is time to choose the file type.
