  Similar iPads also come with a lot less ports, no physical keyboard, no aluminum clamshell protection, and a shittier OS.

  If you honestly think these justify the crap CPU, you’re absolutely out of touch with reality.

    Please enlighten me then, if you don’t mind. Are there some good benchmarks out there that show the Inadequacies of the A18 chip?

      I found several after only 30 seconds of googling, including Apple fans’ favorite benchmark: Geekbench multicore where the A18 is about 40% slower.

        Isn’t it about 40% cheaper than the M4 CPU?
