Apple Pencil accessory works really well
Best iPad performance to date
Smart Connector wireless accessory connections
High-resolution screen
Fantastic speakers
Blisteringly quick
There's something intangibly great about the iPad Pro the minute you pick it it up. You'll recognise it instantly as an iPad as it retains a very close design language to the others in the range
But it just looks… bigger. That sounds so ridiculously obvi
So much crisp display
Improved immersive sound experience
Super long battery life
The new iPad Pro is the biggest and fastest Apple tablet to date. The pressure-sensitive Pencil stylus offers superior sketching and drawing
And the Pro's gorgeous giant screen and quad speakers are ideal for split-screen apps

The editors didn't like
Weights same as a laptop with optional keyboard added
Not as portable as other iPads
Keyboard accessory doesn't truly turn it into a laptop
IOS not OS X will divide "pro" opinion
Price
Mediocre battery life
Could I use this as a laptop replacement? Well
It depends what you're using your laptop for now. If it's idly browsing the web and thinking about writing a novel one day
Then absolutely. Anything beyond that
You're still going to need to keep one aroun
Not 3D Touch-enabled
Accessories not included
Supersized price tag
At launch
Very few apps are currently optimized to take advantage of the iPad Pro's full potential. Its large size makes it less portable than other iPads. Once you've paid for the Pencil and keyboard peripherals
The iPad Pro costs as much as a good lap
Can be unwieldly
Heavy
Flawed keyboard cover
Stylus is pricy
Very expensive
Size can be unwieldy for some
Internal storage not conducive for creative work E.g
Final Cut
Photoshop etc
Keyboard flimsy & difficult to work with
On the go
Only the 12.9-inch model gets the best screen
Very few upgrades over previous model
M2 chip feels a little wasted
Powerfully huge
IOS 9 adds complexity
Battery life could be longer
Size is a consideration
Pricey
Needs more native apps
Weighty
IOS 9 not a Windows 10 rival
Most will still need a proper computer
No iOS optimisations for the big screen
As expensive as a pricey laptop
Too heavy and large to hold one-handed
Relatively expensive
Not quite a laptop
Pencil and keyboard complement MultiTouch
But don't replace it
Costly
Range of prolevel creative apps for iOS remains limited
There is no microSD card slot
So the memory cannot be expanded
There is no HDMI port
So you can't easily watch images or videos from the iPad on your TV unless you invest in a TV streaming device
Its large size means it's not as compact to carry aroun

The iPad Pro is a dream machine for graphic designers and media mavens, but this elegant tablet needs more optimized apps and accessories before it can fully achieve laptop-killer status...
The screen is freakin' spectacular; Same typical brilliant and sturdy design as the other iPad models; Comfortable to hold, despite its massive size; Great performance with little to no lag; Four speakers (woot!); Excellent battery life; Apple makes it wi
Every accessory is optional; Nowhere to put the Pencil; Very expensive;
Apple's iPad Pro is a curious thing, and it kind of makes the iPad range a little like Goldilocks and the three bears. That said, we're retelling the story, because you — Goldilocks — might find the small 7.9 inch Mini to be just right, and you might find...
Abstract: In the spirit of full-disclosure I'm going to let you in on a secret: I love Apple. And this isn't a flippant, buy one product, court it for a bit and toss it aside for a different brand at a better deal. No, this is a youthful infatuation turned genuine...

Four speakers, 5 million pixel display, Excellent split-screen multitasking, Powerful innards for a tablet
Smart cover has a poor form factor and is uncomfortable to use, Pencil Stylus needs to be recharged and cannot be stowed, Heavy users will have to settle for less than ordinary battery life, Accessories are overly expensive

Abstract: The iPad Pro is dauntingly big. It's also surprisingly thin -- 6.9mm thin, which is slimmer than an iPhone 6S.It's not very heavy, clocking in at 1.57 well-balanced pounds. But that weight will become noticeable pretty quick if you're carrying Apple's new...
Abstract: Some might be saying that the era of the tablet is over, but Apple and Microsoft have clearly other ideas. The past few weeks have seen the two tech behemoths lock horns in the tablet segment with the latest additions to their famous tablet ranges – the S...
Great performance, Good battery life, Well built tablet, Good sound output
Unwieldy Smart Keyboard, Can't change the angle while using the keyboard, Not enough apps to exploit the display
The iPad Pro is a powerful tablet with top of the line performance. However, it isn't the ideal device for the average consumer. If you have specific need that justfies the purchase of the iPad Pro, then by all means go ahead and buy it. For the rest of y...
Good, Great performance, Brilliant display, Multitasking on an iPad, Excellent multimedia & gaming device with great speakers, Good, Great performance, Brilliant display, Multitasking on an iPad, Excellent multimedia & gaming device with great speakers
Costly, pricey accessories too, Software has rough edges, Not as portable due to added size and weight, No place to stow the Pencil
Does that mean that you should be picking up an iPad Pro right now? Probably - if it wasn't so painfully expensive. The 32GB model is cheaper, but if you're thinking of editing high resolution images or saving videos to the tablet, or loading up a few goo...
Abstract: It's quite impossible to have one device to rule them all, but I'd be happy if I could bring it down to two. The thought of not having to lug one and also one less device to charge is not a bad idea. A few years ago, inspired by a friend who's a CIO of a...
