The latest iPadOS 16 beta released earlier this week expands a Display Zoom option for more screen space to 2018 and 2020 models of the 11-inch iPad Pro with A12X and A12Z chips. The feature was previously limited to iPad models with the M1 chip.
The feature can be enabled in the Settings app by tapping Display & Brightness → Display Zoom → More Space. Apple says this mode gives users more screen space to work with by scaling the display's resolution, which can be useful for features like Split View and Stage Manager. Apple announced earlier this week that Stage Manager is expanding to 2018 and newer iPad Pro models, albeit without external display support.

Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models simultaneously, which is why we often get rumored features months ahead of launch.

2018 iPad Pros are shaping up to be the iPhone 6s of iPads
For real. The A12 chips in general, but particularly the A12X, were so far ahead of their time. The software is just now hitting the limits of the hardware.
Hopefully this comes to the 4th gen air too, the 10.9" screen isnt exactly much different from 11" pro :)
The A14 has a four-core GPU and six-core CPU. The A12x has a seven-core GPU and an eight-core CPU.
While the A14 is faster in single core, that GPU count is noticeably smaller.
The Air has mostly used the phone SOC while the iPPs have used a beefier SOC. It wasn’t until the most recent Airs got the M1 that they came close to parity.
