Expensive

Necessary external keyboard adds more cost
Expensive once you add a keyboard

Apple incorporates the best, fastest and most delicious hardware in its new professional tablet.We have never seen this standard of performance or image quality on an iPad - but it is very expensive, and we're starting to wonder why we have to wait for th...

Phenomenal power, Fantastic display, Strong battery life
An almighty price, 128GB storage feels limited, Lackluster color options
The new iPad Pro 12.9-inch for 2021 is the best tablet money can buy, with top-end power, a fantastic display, a whole host of new smaller upgrades and an all-round experience that makes it a must-have for both Apple fans and those who want an unrivaled t...

The 12.9in iPad Pro for 2021 is quite a device. It has one of the very best displays, making it killer for video. It has a lot of power with the M1 chip and a reliable nine-plus hours of battery life. It even has Thunderbolt 3 connectivity and optional 5G...

Mini LED screen is better and brighter,Ease of use,Camera improvements,5G connectivity
Center Stage (camera tracking) can be hit and miss,Software feels like it's holding it back
When Steve Jobs first revealed the iPad back in 2010 it was all about casual reading and surfing from the sofa, about access to apps to empower, entertain, and educate us. More than a decade on and the 2021 iPad Pro still embraces those principles. But fo...

Incredible performance, Beautiful display on 12.9-inch model, Stunning design, Center Stage works great, USB 4/Thunderbolt 3 port
Nearly MacBook priced, No Mini-LED on 11-inch model
Yes, but only if you really want or need the biggest and best tablet. The 2021 iPad Pro is more than enough iPad for most people. A lot more. But if spending more than $800 on a tablet isn't really a big deal for you, you'll absolutely love the 2021 iPad...
The similarity in performance begs the question: if you already own a 2018 iPad Pro, is it worth buying this newer model, especially since the £349 Magic Keyboard is backwards compatible with the 2018 iPad Pro?The short answer to that question, I would ha...

We've followed the iPad Pro since its launch some four years ago, buying each new model as they came along. With the 2020 version, there are significant changes to the platform. The big question, however, is whether it's worth it: is this a good inflectio...
Abstract: We've been using Apple's latest iPad Pro for about a month now, so this review has been updated with what we've discovered. 2020’s iPad Pro is a modest upgrade to 2018’s model, with what new performance it offers being more about future-proofing than aff...
The new iPad Pro 12.9in might not be that different from the 2018 variant, at least from a design perspective, but with the introduction of trackpad support and the Magic Keyboard, it's the first time that I've truly seen the potential of the larger iPad...
