I can’t seem to find anything that slows my iPad Pro 3 down. The A12X was such a beast, (still is crushing competitors.) So, how much more powerful and efficient will the A14X be?
Got a tip for us?

iPad Pro A12X/A12 is a beast...

It might have more Processing Cores, a Higher Clock Speed, and a better GPU. It could also be more Power Efficient.
The A12z in my New iPad Pro is super fast, similar to your A12X. I don’t think I’m gonna need a faster Processor, this one is gonna be fine for a few years.
The A10x chip in my 10.5" iPad Pro is still plenty fast. It rarely slows down no matter how much I throw at it - I probably won't be upgrading anytime in the near future.

Finally upgraded my iPad Air 2 to an iPad Pro 2020. I get the impression Apple are leveraging their ownership of the silicon to completely over spec everything. Looking at the performance/price of the thing, I think it's getting harder and harder to level the "Veblen Goods" argument at Apple's core products.
The IPad Pro 2018/2020 with their A12x/z processors are absolute powerhouses on par with 15” MacBook Pro’s, with the iPad Air 3/Mini (A12) also being very powerful, but the the benchmark for the A14 is just Insane. Cant even imagine what the A14X will be?!?
I agree. I don’t have my iPad Pro 10.5 anymore. I upgraded to the 2018 iPad Pro last month. However I used both side by side and in terms of speed there was no difference I could see. Same with my iPad mini 5th gen.
