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

A9X chip has power to burn, 12.9inch Retina display is stunning, Incredible audio performance, Extensive iPadoptimized app ecosystem, Smart Keyboard is a welcome addition, Apple Pencil is the best stylus on the market
iOS still has some limitations, Peripherals add considerably to cost, Builtin apps could have been taken further

During the launch, Apple made a point of stating that the iPad Pro can replace Your laptop. I don't really think that is the case. It's not THAT device, at least not yet. Most laptops have access to so much more business-class productivity software and...
Gorgeous, large display, Surprisingly thin and light for size, Exceptional graphics processing, Four powerful speakers, Can connect keyboard sans pairing, wires, or batteries
Stylus is pricey, not attachable, Keyboard case has few stand positions, So-so battery life, No built-in stand, USB ports, MicroSD slot
Apple may be playing catch-up, issuing its first oversize tablet, but the iPad Pro cuts no corners: It's a fittingly luxurious take on the form. Read More…...

Abstract: Apples souped-up iPad Pro is supposed to be a laptop replacement–yet as many have already pointed out, it just isnt up to the task. So I decided to use the iPad Pro as its namesake suggests: As a fucking huge iPad. To my surprise, I liked it.I dont lik...
A giant display, Improved keyboard integration, Optional pencil input
A pocketable tablet, A traditional laptop, OS X or Windows software
The iPad Pro is the biggest, most powerful hand-held window into the internet and apps that Apple has ever released. It's also something new and doesn't yet take full advantage of all that size or power. It is, as Tim Cook says, "the clearest expression o...

Abstract: The iPad Pro is a strange device. Like other Apple products, it has a premium, polished design and is (in some ways) delightful to use. But it also shows Apple playing the unfamiliar role of follower – and (in some ways) not doing a particularly good job...
