IPad Air 2 better for many

Won't replace your laptop
Pro 9.7in is very expensive
This could be a more convincing laptop replacement if iOS took some more cues from OS X El Capitan. I can't work nearly as quickly or efficiently as I can on a MacBook in which I can open multiple programs
Windows and tabs. Split screen on an iPad
With
Base model only has 32GB of storage
Apple still won't sell a tablet with OS X
What do you do with that 12.9
Inch iPad Pro you bought?
A higher price
Plus expensive accessories. Less RAM and a slightly slower processor than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. iOS still limits overall flexibility of this iPad
Expensive
It's a fingerprint magnet
Not as enticing as the S7 Edge
Sound through the headphone jack lacks sparkle
True Tone really needs to be turned off for videos
Photos etc
Far from cheap
Tighter typing experience
Pricey accessories
Keyboard cover won't suit everyone
Other similarly sized tablets have longer battery life
High price (even higher than at launch)
Smaller Smart Keyboard isn't easy to type on accurately
Camera lens sticks out at rear
Expensive at every option level
Cramped screen for multitasking
Not a true laptop replacement
High price
32GB option isn't enough space
IOS could be better
Keyboard design
Not as Pencil friendly
Accessories cost extra
There is no microSD card slot
So the memory cannot be expanded if you opt for the smaller capacity
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
Abstract: At first look, the iPad Pro is most certainly a thing of beauty, albeit slightly marred by it being Rose Gold. I don't know when that became the official colour mascot for prestige, but in my opinion it was never flattering to begin with. Aside from that...
Abstract: Tablets haven't had a great time lately. In the last two years, sales have plummeted and production has slowed to a crawl. While a lot of that is due to the fact they don't have the manic upgrade calendar of traditional computers or smartphones, it's also...
Class-leading performance, Great stereo sound, Excellent rear and front cameras, Gorgeous display, Thin and light build
Pretty expensive, Battery life could be better
The 9.7-inch iPad Pro is easily the best tablet Apple has ever made, even besting its bigger brother, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro.The 9.7-inch form factor is more manageable, lighter, thinner, and easier to pack in your backpack or handbag. It also fits nicely...

If your tablet life consists entirely of content consumption and you see that continuing for the foreseeable future, the Air 2 is probably still the iPad for you.But if you like the idea of a tablet that allows you to be more creative or productive, the P...
Abstract: I haven't been an iPad user since I got my iPhone 6 Plus.My iPad mini, which I bought to compensate for the tiny screen on my iPhone 5s, sat unused on my nightstand for months until I finally decided to give up and sell it.For me, the best computing combo...

Pricey
Admittedly, the 9.7-inch iPad Pro is quite pricey for a tablet, but the Pro features more than just a glorified gaming and entertainment gadget...
The iPad Pro sports the latest technologies which leaves me to conclude that Apple may terminate the iPad Air series. When the Pro arrived, Apple dropped prices of the Air which signals that change is coming.Battery life is excellent, lasting more than 24...

Pretty expensive, Battery life could be better
The iPad Pro 9.7 runs on the same 64-bit A9X SoC that you'll find inside the iPad Pro 12.9. Its bigger brother is marginally faster with a 2.26GHz clockspeed, compared to 2.16GHz on the 9.7, but the 12.9 also has to work harder to drive its larger display...
