iPad Pro M2 2022 8GB or 16GB ram

edited November 2022 in Hardware

I am thinking of replacing my old 12.9 inch 2nd generation iPad Pro with a new 12.9 inch 2022 M2 iPad Pro but not sure whether to buy the 512GB model or the 1TB. I see that the 1TB model has 16GB ram and the 512GB only has 8GB ram. Is there a performance difference with 16GB compared to 8GB when using music production apps and plugins?

  • If Macs are anything to go by, yes. Sorry, no experience with M1 or M2 iPads..

  • I remember reading that no apps support 16gb ram on the iPad Pro as of yet. I don’t really want to pay £400 more for 16gb if it’s going to useless as no apps support it yet.

  • I would say you will be fine with 8GB for iPad stuff.

    If so, then last Air wth 256 is Okay. It is all right for me.

  • As of iPadOS 16, M series iPads will also have true SWAP. Not as fast as RAM, but your bottleneck will most likely be DSP rather than memory. If I knew back when I bought my M1 11” that they’d release an air the following year, I would have waited. You may want more storage for other reasons though.

  • I just got a new TB 11” Pro, and this thing is blazing, even compared to a 2020 Pro. Feels so great to have that compact size back.

  • All of the expert opinions I’ve read (including @Michael, if I recall correctly) have thought 8 ram is sufficient for music on iOS.

  • Never felt a need for more than 8GB RAM. I would like to have 512GB rather than 256GB though.
