New iPad Pro durability test: not easy to be bent and extremely fire-resistant

Recently, the YouTube channel JerryRigEverything released a compelling video showcasing the New iPad Pro durability through extreme bending tests. Apple’s thinnest device ever demonstrates significant stiffness enhancements in landscape mode, although it faces challenges in portrait mode.

New iPad Pro durability test: not easy to be bent and extremely fire-resistant

The new iPad Pro is available in 11-inch and 13-inch models, with thicknesses reaching an astonishing 5.3 mm and 5.1 mm respectively. In order to verify its structural strength and durability, channel host Zack conducted rigorous bending tests on it. The results show that Apple added a special part inside the device to enhance the stiffness. This design has a significant effect in “landscape mode”. Even if you try to bend the iPad, no parts break.

However, when bending the iPad in “portrait mode,” the story is different. With the space inside the USB-C port being the weakest link, the iPad’s screen cracked nearby. Still, that’s pretty impressive for a device that’s just 5.1mm thick.

Zack suggested in the video that Apple could improve the new iPad Pro durability further by adding a new board parallel to the USB port in future models. This enhancement could solve the structural challenges in portrait mode.

In addition to structural strength, the new iPad Pro’s Tandem OLED technology has also attracted widespread attention. This technology significantly increases the brightness of the display by stacking two OLED screens together. What’s even more impressive is that even when directly affected by flames, Tandem OLED screens show extremely high fire resistance and do not suffer from the common permanent discoloration phenomenon.

Apple recently launched the new iPad Pro and iPad Air, which have attracted enthusiastic attention from consumers. Although Zack conducted the bend test primarily for fun and to verify product durability, the results provide valuable reference information for potential buyers.
