It is a step up in screen, camera, finger print reader and overall experience. I highly recommend.

There's a lot to say about the 10.5in iPad Pro, but in short, we think you'll love it. It's a delight to use for a huge variety of tasks thanks to its power, design and great screen size, but it comes at a price.

Even though the iPad has only been around for seven years, it has revolutionized how we think of computing and started the tablet revolution. And since 2010, Apple has stuck to the 9.7-inch screen size for the main iPad line, until they introduced the 12.9-inch iPad Pro back in 2015.

The truth is that I've been loving the 10.5-inch iPad Pro since I opened the box. It's a fantastic device, and it's actually a wonderful 2-in-1, and I know that there will be a lot of people that aren't happy to hear that.

Apple announced early this month, their new tablets – a 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro . These slates feature a new technology called ProMotion that can deliver refresh rates of up to 120Hz for fluid scrolling and smoother motion content.

More than most tech companies out there, Apple is a manufacturer that really gets set in its ways: no doubt after a long period of careful consideration, Apple tends to decide, "this is how we're going to do things," and keeps on doing that same thing, over and over, for years and years.

With accessories; starts getting expensive; fast; Even with split-screen; iOS doesn't feel optimized for tablets; Audio recording when shooting video doesn't sound great

Excellent screen; Incredibly powerful; Great audio output

Overpowered for iOS 10; Not quite close to replacing your laptop

At that point you've got to ask yourself if you wouldn't rather just have a laptop. But if you're set on a tablet and want the best of the best, this is it.

+ Brilliant screen; + Lots of power; + Premium design

For the past year, I've had a really big dilemma: Having to choose between the 12-inch MacBook or the 9.7-inch iPad Pro . Now, the new 10.5-inch iPad Pro has solved all of those issues for me, making it the best iPad to have ever come out of Cupertino and the one most likely to replace the MacBook.

Bigger display without sacrificing portability; 512GB storage capacity make it a real MacBook alternative; ProMotion helps both display responsiveness and battery life; Smart Keyboard and Apple Pencil redefine the iPad experience; 4GB of RAM make for top-class performance

The current non-Pro iPad, starting at $329 for 32GB, is all the slate you need for traditional tablet use, which includes games, magazines, comics, and basic email, writing, and web browsing.

Extremely fast; Light; Excellent screen and cameras; Better battery life than previous iPads
