I have the first gen of the iPad Pro.
I was considering getting the newer version but when i came to compare the max rated WiFi speed in Mbps I was unable to find any comparative data.
Anyone care to enlighten me?
I remember reading a while ago that an iPad had a max receivable signal of 877Mbps but cant remember which model it was.

Howdy Chris!
From what I can tell it looks like that model had Dual-Channel AC capable radios with MIMO. The IEEE 802.11AC specification has wiggle room all the way up to 1 Gbps (~1024 Mbps give or take a few baud here and there). Though this is only on the 5 GHz spectrum and using a multi-station setup at 256-QAM Modulation with 8x/8x MIMO streams. The iPad is capable of the 1 Gbps maximum throughput according to spec. Though there’s so many variables when it comes to wireless transmission and integrity that changes on a per second basis that it’s impossible to nail a hard number without controlled environments.
Unfortunately the only answer I can offer is a range. The 877 Mbps sounds like it was definitely using MIMO on 5 GHz. Generally the average data stream on the 5 GHz AC spec is 200 - 500 Mbps, give or take a few buckets worth of megs here and there for data bursting, QoS controls, traffic shaping, environmental changes per second, TCP vs UDP traffic, etcetera etcetera. The higher end of 800+ Mbps is definitely possible from what I’ve seen on recent routers available at the consumer levels but for general use applications that number should be much lower.
Best of luck and have a great day!

I’m thankful for your answer, it helps. However, I’m less concerned with router and the associated protocols. I was really looking for an accurate comparison on the rated Mbps handling of the iPad’s radio chipset. I have gotten 950 on a test PC using Ethernet, my MacBook gets around 700-800 but it’s new and my iPad gets around 500-550 ish on a good day. So I’m just trying to ascertain if the slower speed on the iPad is something to do with it’s limits regarding what it can ‘take’ Mbps wise and if the newer iPads have a faster or better limit - then I may make an informed decision as to upgrade to a fresh iPad Pro or not.

Please bear in mind Wi-Fi throughput are ‘half-duplex’ most of the time. So the commonly advertised 866Mbps throughput means 433Mbps downlink and 433Mbps uplink. And Ethernet is ‘full-duplex’, so it’s 1000Mbps uplink and 1000Mbps downlink at the same time. All the technical details are covered from above answer.
