The new iPad Pro M4 models feature a mysterious rear Ambient Light Sensor, which enhances document scanning by detecting and measuring ambient light to remove shadows using hardware and AI. This is the first time such a sensor has been placed on the rear of an iPad, adding to the already impressive camera setup.
Some users are reporting that the Apple Watch Ultra display is too dim to read in low light conditions, suggesting an issue with the ambient light sensor that may be linked to Apple's watchOS 10 software update. Complaints include difficulty reading information on the screen in dark environments, particularly when transitioning from a bright room to a dark area. The problem persists despite manual adjustments to the brightness level in the watch's settings. Apple is aware of the issue and is expected to address it in a future software update.
