iPad Pro M5 with Dual Front Cameras: Real or Fake? What to Expect

October 11, 2025

A new leak claims the iPad Pro M5 will feature dual front cameras. Here's what the Vice.com report reveals, and whether Apple is really planning this bold design change.

Apple fans are once again in the news, thanks to a leak suggesting the iPad Pro M5 will feature dual front cameras. This time, a leak on Vice.com suggests something completely new in the upcoming iPad Pro M5. According to the leak, Apple may experiment with a dual front camera system for the first time in the M5 iPad Pro. But is this true or just another internet rumor? So, let’s analyze this leak.

What Does the “Vice” Report Say?

Vice.com recently reported on Apple’s internal testing, which mentions a “dual front-facing camera layout” in a hypothetical iPad model. The report doesn’t confirm whether this is an early test device or part of the M5 iPad design, but this reference has fueled speculation on tech forums.

The video also shows a safa. The Apple M5 iPad Pro has a front panel, and if true, it would be a larger product than the single 12MP ultra-wide front camera seen in the iPad Pro M4, supporting Center Stage and Formation Subject Combat.

While the dual front camera may seem pointless at first glance, there’s a rationale behind it.

Apple may be aiming to improve FaceTime and video calls in both portrait and landscape modes. The iPad’s front camera has always been a challenge in landscape orientation,

because it creates awkward eye contact angles. A dual setup (one for portrait and one for landscape) could completely address this issue.

It would also make Face ID and Center Stage work more seamlessly, no matter how the iPad is held. It could also pave the way for better-quality AR (augmented reality) and depth-sensing effects during calls. We can only imagine what Apple will achieve until it releases it.

What We Know About the iPad Pro M5 So Far

While Apple hasn’t officially announced the M5 iPad lineup, several leaks have hinted at:

  • New M5 Chip: The M5 chip is expected to come with better thermal management and energy efficiency.
  • Design Changes: There could be thinner bezels and a redesigned camera module.
  • Display Upgrades: There is every hope for possible improvements to the OLED panel for better HDR performance.
  • Smarter iPadOS: iPadOS may see improved battery life and integrated AI-focused features.

Given Apple’s recent tendency to use the same core hardware across product lines, the iPad Pro M5 could borrow some elements from the iPhone 16/17 Pro, which already have advanced camera art and better front camera capabilities. If this happens, we’ll be able to take better photos with the iPad Pro M5.

As of now, there’s no photographic evidence or regulatory filings confirming this dual-camera setup. The Vice.com report itself prominently mentions it. However, Apple’s continued efforts to make iPads more versatile, especially for hybrid work and video conferencing, lend credence to this rumor.

If Apple indeed adds dual front cameras, it would be a major change in how iPads handle video, productivity, and communication, bringing the device even closer to a MacBook-iPhone hybrid experience.

Treat this leak with caution until Apple officially unveils the iPad Pro M5, but if true, it could redefine the way we view and use iPads in 2025. Do you think this Vice report is accurate, and are you considering a dual-camera iPad Pro? Let us know in the comments.
