iPad Pro How is the motion clarity of the new OLED iPad?

[excavate8603]

Specifically regarding texts and webpage elements while scrolling, do they still have terrible ghosting like on the older models with very slow response time? Personally I care about this way more than the contrasts colors and brightness of these new panels. I've been holding on to my 2018 12.9 Pro, hoping the OLED screens will make a real improvement in motion clarity.

It’s OLED. OLED is OLED. Motion clarify will be fantastic, especially with the 120hz panels.

Picked up my 11” M4 today. Screen response time appears excellent - I‘m not noticing any ghosting at all.

Motion clarity is good, uniform brightness is not much different to M2 Pro, under normal office conditions. Colour tint is noticeably different side by side but I guess that's something you need to get used to, and turn on time is marginally slower on the new M4, i.e. coming to life after pressing the button or touching the screen. Not as smooth and instant as the M2, guessing this is a software thing

I replaced my 2018 pro with the new M4. I’m finding scrolling to be terrible on the new one. I get a very noticeable double vision effect when scrolling at medium speeds. On my 2018 I can scroll the same and continue reading or skimming the text as it’s going by.

I observe good motion clarity on my M4 iPad Pro.

Funny. I found the complete opposite.

Fantastic. Massive difference in motion clarity from the older iPads. It's the main reason why I think I am keeping this.

I think this might be a bug with promotion on oled iPads as I noticed that briefly as well but it seems to have randomly stopped and hasn't happened since. Now motion just looks like an oled should, way clearer than lcd. The old lcd model literally looks broken in comparison.

That's a faulty panel. Please exchange asap.

Fantastic, coming from an M3 Pro MacBook Pro owner who returned it due to terrible motion clarity. There’s a major thread about it.

Nothing compares to OLED pixel response. It makes a mockery of the 60hz and 120hz LCDs that Apple has put out.

How is the motion clarity of the new OLED iPad?

Not as good as a CRT.
