WHAT DID WE LEARN?

The performance of the 'top' 2020 MacBook Pro 13-inch's Iris Plus Graphics has taken a leap forward. For the first time in years, it out-performs the iPad Pros in the Geekbench Metal GPU test.

CORRECTION: The Generation 10 Intel Processor in the 2020 MacBook Pro 13-inch also edges out the iPad Pros.
