Leaked Video Appears to Show Apple’s M5 iPad Pro With Major GPU Boost

The leaker’s track record lends credibility, with an October reveal still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • The unboxing from Russian YouTuber Wylsacom shows a 13-inch iPad Pro labeled with Apple’s M5 chip, a source previously accurate on unreleased Apple hardware.
  • Geekbench results reported by multiple outlets indicate roughly 10–15% CPU gains and around a 33–38% jump in Metal GPU performance versus the M4 model, with a larger 6MB L2 cache and a 9‑core CPU.
  • The 256GB unit displayed 12GB of RAM, suggesting a memory increase over the 8GB found in comparable M4 base configurations.
  • The hardware appears nearly unchanged from the M4 iPad Pro—same chassis, single rear camera, sizes and colors—with existing Magic Keyboard and cases fitting; the back shows only an Apple logo without usual ‘iPad Pro’ text.
  • Packaging looks slimmer, the device in the video runs iPadOS 26.0, and reports disagree on in‑box contents, with some noting no charger and others claiming a 45W adapter, as Apple has not commented.
