Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Apple iPad Pro 11 2018 Cellular (4GB + 64GB)

  • Scorching-fast performance driven by the A12X Bionic chip, often compared favorably to many laptops.
  • Stunning Liquid Retina display with ProMotion (120Hz) and True Tone technology for smooth visuals and color accuracy.
  • Sleek, modern design with significantly reduced bezels and a thin aluminum chassis.
  • Improved accessory ecosystem, specifically the magnetically attaching and charging second-generation Apple Pencil.
  • Transition to USB-C, which allows for easier connection to external monitors and reverse charging.
  • Rock-solid battery life, typically lasting around 10 to 13 hours in daily use.

What customers don't like about Apple iPad Pro 11 2018 Cellular (4GB + 64GB)

  • High total cost of ownership, especially when adding essential accessories like the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard.
  • Operating system limitations that can make multitasking and file management feel restricted compared to a PC or Mac.
  • Lack of compatibility with older Lightning-based accessories, requiring users to upgrade their gear.
  • Face ID camera placement can lead to accidental finger coverage when holding the device in landscape mode.
  • Hardware design issues, such as the absence of a headphone jack and a camera bump that can be irritating.
  • Durability concerns reported by some users regarding the screen's resistance to scratches and the device's thin frame.

Verdict

The 2018 Apple iPad Pro 11-inch Cellular (1st Gen) features an edge-to-edge Liquid Retina display with 2388-by-1668 resolution, 120Hz ProMotion technology, and 600 nits of brightness. Powered by the A12X Bionic chip with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, it includes a 12MP rear camera, a 7MP TrueDepth front camera for Face ID, and a USB-C port that replaced the Lightning connector. Main pros include its exceptionally fast performance for multitasking, a slim 5.9mm design with immersive quad-speaker audio, and support for the 2nd-generation Apple Pencil. However, notable cons include the lack of a headphone jack, the limited 64GB base storage which cannot be expanded, and the high cost of essential proprietary accessories.
