On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.

    Isn’t iOS just about heavily modified Unix clone? My jailbroken old iPad has /var/log and misc GNU directories, as well as an Apt package manager to access Cydia repos.

      Not a clone, its kernel was once certified UNIX. It’s just a heavily modified UNIX.

      It is, but it would be like saying Android is just another Linux variant.

      What I want to stress in my initial comment is that the OS is so heavily modified and focused on optimization and RAM management, that it can’t hardly work for power users when multitasking is on the board.
