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

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
