The slo-mo video quality between the iPad Pro M3 and the iPhone 14 Pro can differ based on their respective capabilities and settings.
iPad Pro M3 Slo-Mo Video Quality
The iPad Pro M3, like other iPads, typically allows for slow-motion recording in the Slo-mo mode. Users can adjust the slow-motion settings by going to Settings > Camera > Record Slo-mo. However, specific details about the frame rate and resolution for slow-motion on the iPad Pro M3 are not explicitly mentioned in the search results. Generally, iPads can record slow-motion at 1080p and up to 240fps, similar to iPhones, but this may vary depending on the model and generation.
iPhone 14 Pro Slo-Mo Video Quality
The iPhone 14 Pro offers slow-motion recording at up to 240fps in 1080p resolution. However, some users have reported issues with achieving consistent frame rates, often recording at lower rates such as around 180fps instead of the full 240fps[2][5]. This inconsistency can affect the smoothness and quality of the slow-motion playback. The iPhone 14 Pro also features an Auto FPS setting, which can impact video recording frame rates, but this primarily applies to standard video modes rather than slow-motion[2].
Key Differences
- Frame Rate Consistency: The iPhone 14 Pro sometimes struggles with maintaining a consistent 240fps during slow-motion recording, which can lead to jittery playback. In contrast, iPads generally do not have reported issues with frame rate consistency in slow-motion mode.
- Resolution and Quality: Both devices can record slow-motion at 1080p, but the iPhone 14 Pro's ability to sometimes record at lower than expected frame rates might affect overall video quality.
- Settings and Control: Both devices allow users to adjust slow-motion settings, but the iPhone 14 Pro's Auto FPS feature can influence standard video recording more than slow-motion.
In summary, while both devices can capture high-quality slow-motion video, the iPhone 14 Pro may experience inconsistencies in frame rate, potentially impacting video smoothness. The iPad Pro M3, on the other hand, generally offers stable slow-motion recording capabilities without the reported frame rate issues seen in some iPhone models.
